I am not aware of the challenge in the case mentioned by the hon. Member. The proposal that we are putting forward is the result of a good deal of thought and study and a good deal of public discussion. That discussion has to go forward to its focus from the stage that it has now reached following the publication of the White Paper. That focus will be discussed in both Houses.
