Consumer Rights Bill

I thank my noble friend for that reply. She will not be surprised to hear that I am, shall we say, disappointed, but obviously I am not put off. I do not want to be accused of currying favour with the Opposition because that is not my primary objective, but nevertheless from time to time they do seem to have a closer grasp, although not as close as those of us who have been MPs and have held constituency surgeries where these things come up over and over again. There is a distinct division in your Lordships’ House between those of us who have such experience and those who do not. I think that this is one of the occasions when it shows. For the moment, I reluctantly withdraw the amendment.
