Finally, the amendment would have unintended consequences for the whole of Part 3 of the Bill. Part 2 of Schedule 6 makes a number of crucial consequential amendments to ensure that the NRF is operable, from amending the period of validity of species licences to removing the ability of planning conditions to be deemed discharged. Removing Schedule 6 would therefore not have the targeted effect that some may think it would. With that explanation, I hope the noble Lord feels able to withdraw his amendment.
