Child Maintenance and Other Payments Bill

Of course. At this late hour, I am not going to take the Minister to task for saying, ““I think such and such happens””, but perhaps we can find out whether it does happen. I am pleased to hear that as far as he knows the speed and the action are reciprocal, whether from unemployment to work or work to unemployment—I see nods behind him, so I shall excuse him for the words ““I think””. I shall look at this again, but in the mean time it is quite clear that we are not going to get any further tonight, so I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendments Nos. 97 to 100 not moved.] Clause 17 agreed to.
