I have a general point. The Minister is right to say that a lot of the important detail is under schedule 12. After we have concluded the debates on the detail of the Bill, will she be willing to have a meeting between the parties? Having read the schedule over and again and consulted my hon. Friend the Member for Cardiff, Central, who has read it but who is not a lawyer, I think that the schedule is very complicated and confusing. I would be happy to try to draft the schedule in a shape and form that avoids some of the cross-referencing and pitfalls which, to be honest, do not help us very much.
