Digital Switchover (Disclosure of Information) Bill

I support in principle what the noble Lord, Lord Howard, has put forward. In a way, it is rather surprising that this definition does not appear in the Bill, or at least in the description in the help scheme, because, in a sense, it has been implicit in everything that Ministers have said, especially with regard to issues relating to partially sighted people and so on. It seems to me that such a definition would be a useful signpost, and it would be beneficial to make it explicit, rather than having to look at the no doubt wise words of Ministers in Committee in the House of Lords. It would be useful to have it in the Bill, and therefore I consider the amendment very sensible.
