Public Bodies Bill [Lords] (Programme) (No. 2)

I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman for acknowledging that the very distinctive region of Cornwall deserves such devolution. The hon. Gentleman makes a perfectly decent point, although I have to say that provided that the Government follow their word about the Bill being the enabling framework for abolitions to be made by order, he and his colleagues in Wales will be able to advance the idea of variable geography with regard to retaining protection for agricultural workers when orders are made. However, that is perhaps a debate for another day.
