I think no one wishes this House to go down the road of the other place, where the Executive determine the timetable and as much time is spent debating timing allocated to business as it is to business itself. This occasion should be unusual and never become the norm. I ask the noble Baroness the Leader of the whole House to keep to an approach of agreeing progress across usual channels. If she withdraws her Motion, I will withdraw my amendment and I give her a firm undertaking in the eyes of the House that we on this side will approach Report on the Bill in the same constructive spirit as we did Committee.
