That is a fair point which I have not yet addressed. Although the debate last week related to forfeiture, whereas this debate relates to freezing, it is perfectly true that the same issue could arise. I take the hon. Gentleman’s point entirely. I can conceive of circumstances in which the imaginary Mr. McNulty will not know that his property, which is in the hands of the person who is the subject of the freezing order, is likely to be frozen. I do not have an answer. The hon. Gentleman is right to identify and flag up the issue—it must be addressed.
