Energy Bill

I thank the noble Lord, Lord Davies, very much for the time and trouble he has taken to allay not only my fears but the fears of the noble Lord, Lord Teverson, who I thank, too, for his kind words. If these things had been clear, explicit and easy to understand, we would not have had to ask them. Naturally, at this stage, there is so little in the Bill and so much that will be in secondary legislation, which we cannot see right now. I have listened carefully to what has been said. It sounds good, although I should like to reflect on it. Perhaps some of our questions may also cause the civil servants behind the Minister to freshen up some of the things that he has said today. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
