The purpose both the noble Lord and I have is to ask the question, “Why are we giving the Government this astonishing range when they say they do not need it or want it, and we don’t want it either?” Assuming we do give the Government this great range, what do they intend to do with it? We would be very disturbed if we heard certain things, but we would be more placated if we heard others. How do we hold the Government to account on this? That is really what these two amendments are about.
