The noble Baroness, Lady Newlove, clearly holds a very important role. She would no doubt argue that, if we do not give the Victims’ Commissioner the money, you can publicly shame Ministers—but, clearly, Ministers are quite happy to be publicly shamed and to ignore that. Without that in this piece of legislation, if it is “must” later on, I cannot understand why it cannot be the same here. With respect to my noble friend, there is also a big difference between the use of “must” there and here, because that is talking about investigations in terms of that context, and the actual context of providing finance.
