Honestly, I do not know whether my noble friend is planning to test the House or considering bringing it back at Third Reading if we do not get a satisfactory answer, but this is absolutely key to making sure that we do sensible government and sensible politics, not party politics. This is something on which everybody is agreed, apart from a few people in MHCLG. Frankly, I believe that your Lordships should consider really pushing this through so we get on with some sensible stuff in this Bill.
