Legislative Reform

I have just been reflecting on my right hon. Friend's earlier comments; I apologise for going back a paragraph in his notes. He was talking about the narrow nature of the order and he has acknowledged that there will be another order. The hon. Member for Weston-super-Mare (John Penrose) made a perfectly reasonable point in asking why there could not have been a single order. If there had been, we would have had a clearer picture of the Government's strategy. I do not think that there is any difference across the House or between the Committee and the Government on the issue, but we would have had a clearer picture and been able to see what was in the Minister's mind.
