I am sure that my hon. Friend the Minister has heard those remarks. As the hon. Gentleman said earlier, the fact that we have been able to conduct the debate in a non-politically partisan way has been important. We are all trying to sing from the same hymn sheet on where we are going, even if we have little differences on the timetable for arriving at our destination. When we debated the UK Borders Bill—I think it was last week or the week before—I was given a commitment that although we cannot have a formal timetable, we will be given regular progress reports on the implementation of the action plan. That is very welcome. The Minister is right—I posed an awful lot of questions, and I did not expect all the answers today. It would be helpful if he could write to us about the ones to which we did not have answers today and keep us fully informed. I am grateful to him for his offer to come back to discuss the issues with us in the future. There has been a bit of out of sight, out of mind about the issue, and I wish to conclude with two quotations from General MacArthur on the second world war. When surrender was signed, he said:"““These proceedings are now concluded.””" I do not think that we can say that. We will be saying his other famous quotation, after the Americans were thrown out of the Philippines: ““We will return.”” He did, and we will.
