Legislative and Regulatory Reform Bill

I am immensely grateful to the noble Lord for that answer, because he referred to something about the Bill that I had not grasped. He said that the Bill will be used only to amend primary legislation because it will not be necessary in order to amend regulation. That admission and that admission alone has made my whole intervention worth it. Of course, I will not divide the Committee, as I said, and, of course, I will withdraw my amendment. However, what the Minister said on that point leaves me with an enormous amount of thinking to do. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendment No. 27 not moved.]
