I also find myself in the happy position of being able to praise my noble friends on the Front Bench and those who advise them in much the same terms—although I do not always agree with them. They have been extremely responsive and given of their time generously to me and to many other noble Lords over the last few weeks. They have listened and shown a willingness not merely to hear concerns but to act on them. The test, of course, will be at the end of this debate as to whether those actions are sufficient for us to move to the next stage of concluding this.
