That does not seem to me a very joined-up approach. On the one hand, the Liberal Democrats are arguing that my noble friend Lord Moylan’s quite modest amendment—to have transparent information in a very consumer-friendly way about the impact on ticket prices—is very difficult to do and very complicated, but, on the other hand, a Liberal Democrat colleague is suggesting a much more expansive form of reporting and proposing that the Government should do that. Perhaps there has been a lack of joined-up communication on the Liberal Democrat Front Bench. I am really confused, given the two diametrically opposed positions they have taken on the Bill, which is not welcome, because I think that, just as we are, they are broadly in favour of having more sustainable aviation. It is odd that they have taken two diametrically opposed positions on two different amendments in two subsequent groups on the Bill. I fear, therefore, that I will not be able to support the amendment if the noble Baroness presses it to a Division and seeks to test the opinion of the House.
