As I said, the measure is about services at local level. It is about people getting involved in shaping those services. It is about people understanding how different organisations work at local level; this is a local government Bill. I very much hope that with those reassurances the Opposition will again crumble, although I think it unlikely. However, I hope the Committee support this wonderful clause.
