My Lords, I am enormously grateful for the support that I have received from all Benches of your Lordships’ House and for the seriousness with which Members have addressed the Bill. I was slightly worried on several grounds when the Minister wound up: at one stage I thought that he was inviting
me to retire by the end of the Parliament. I do not think I am minded to do that with so much unfinished business before us, not least in this area.
