I am most grateful to the noble and learned Lord, Lord Thomas of Cwmgiedd, the noble Lord, Lord Watson of Invergowrie, and to all the noble Lords and noble Baronesses serving on the Secondary Legislation Scrutiny Committee for their diligence and expert review of this order. Their thoughtful scrutiny and commitment to upholding the integrity of secondary legislation are greatly appreciated. I would like to respond to their comments and provide assurances to this Committee on matters which I know are at the forefront of your Lordships’ minds.
