I beg to move amendment 12, page 9, line 35, leave out 'six' and insert 'nine'.

The Second Deputy Chairman:

With this it will be convenient to discuss amendment 13, page 9, line 36, leave out from 'force' to end of line 38.

I refer the Committee to the comments that I made a few moments ago regarding my concern about the time scale, which was why I tabled the amendments. I look forward to the Minister's response.

Taking my cue from the hon. Gentleman, I refer him to the remarks that I made a few moments ago, which I hope he found reassuring.

In the light of that reassurance, I beg to ask leave to withdraw the amendment.

Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
