I hope that, in outlining the purposes of the Bill, I have satisfied noble Lords that Amendment 1 is neither required nor, in fact, would achieve anything. The Bill does not need an amendment to clarify its purpose—that is clear from the content of the legislation and the accompanying documents. It is clear from the ambition and the action of this Government. I invite the noble Baroness to withdraw her amendment so that we can progress to considering the detail of the Bill and the important amendments tabled by noble Lords.
