I am grateful to my right hon. Friend for giving way, and I suppose I should declare an interest as a patron of the St Peter's project in my constituency, where we are trying to raise funds to make much-needed alterations and renovations to St Peter's church in Highfields. There are already considerable pressures on the listed places of worship grant scheme, which is a very good scheme, but one problem with it is that when a church applies to it there is no certainty about the amount of grant that it will receive. Now that this change is being made, those pressures are only going to increase.
