Terrorist Asset-Freezing (Temporary Provisions) Bill

My Lords, it is desirable for there to be a report on the things that have been done under the previous orders and that are done under the authority of this Bill. Will the Minister clarify the requirement on the Treasury to make that report? If there was a clear requirement on the Government to make a report, there would be no problem. We are trying to ensure that there is a report. Is the Minister saying simply, ““Trust me, I’m the Government””, or is he saying, ““I have to do it, therefore it’s all right””?
