Localism Bill

My Lords, I suggest to the noble Lord that the words which had initially confused me—making the decision ““just because”” of these factors—in fact answer his point. I think that those words ““just because”” mean that they are a consideration but they are not the only consideration. They are part of all the criteria that should be assessed when judging whether or not a mind has been closed. I can see that we are not going to take it further today. I just wanted to put that into the arena as well and assure the noble Lord that it was not he who confused me.
