Commissioner for Older People (Wales) Bill [HL]

I thank everybody for the way in which the Committee has been conducted. It has been very positive and very brief, but not so brief that we have not discussed important things in detail. It has been a pleasurable experience, and I am grateful to everyone who has taken part. I join the noble Lord, Lord Livsey, in thanking the Bill team, who have worked very hard and have got me through what has been quite a complicated process. I am particularly grateful that we have finished at 7 o’clock because I have to go and do something. I mentioned this to everybody and am very grateful for the speed with which we have dealt with the business this afternoon. We have also saved a day tomorrow. Clause 22, as amended, agreed to. Clause 23 agreed to. Bill reported with amendments. The Committee adjourned at six minutes before seven o’clock.
