My Lords, I am grateful to the Minister and I understand the issue of charities A, B and C. I hope that the Government will come forward with an amendment which has a reasonably commercial and practical application, otherwise we will find ourselves so constrained in what can and cannot be done as to make the whole idea of smaller charities being able to wind up to merge with other charities stillborn. The purpose behind these amendments is to improve efficiency and effectiveness in the charitable sector. I look forward to seeing an amendment, but in the mean time I beg leave to withdraw the amendment.
Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
