Finally, my noble friend Lord Murray’s Amendment 216 takes the argument a little further. As he explained, it would provide for a hard stop on key sections of the Act—one that a future Government could override, but only after demonstrating what the impact of the Act and any associated regulations has been. With that assessment, informed by a comprehensive consultation exercise and a review of the evidence, this amendment complements the review provisions that I have proposed; I hope that the Minister will look at it constructively.
