The hon. Gentleman can count, too. We have depths upon depths on the other side of the House. It seems a reasonable take-up, and I think that the hon. Gentleman agrees with me.

The industry is keen, and what we want an assurance about tonight is that the kind of equation that has been made has been made with confidence and the take-up will continue to equalise fertiliser and show that the industry is prepared to meet the competitive strain that will be put upon it.

I conclude with those few words of general acceptance of the Minister and general acceptance of the order.
