As the noble Lord, Lord Palmer said, we are talking about the facilitation of deliberate fraud against the social security system. I was going to ask the Minister about prosecutions, but she trumped my question and has given an answer. Again, I will read in Hansard what she said, and I will think carefully about all the replies given, particularly by the noble Baroness, to see whether we might bring this back on Report. This is an important matter. We need to work out on our side whether we have got this right. It is a serious matter. Whether it was the right issue to bring up about the right matter is something that we will reflect upon, and we may bring it back. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment.
