Legislative and Regulatory Reform Bill

I think that I am grateful for the hon. Gentleman’s intervention. I will come to his Committee’s report—I hope that he will be patient for that. The hon. Member for East Renfrewshire was almost responsible for galvanising the sheer opposition to the measures that were being suggested. The way in which he continued to say that there was no problem or issue was totally disingenuous and we now see the Government scurrying to the Chamber to suggest these amendments and new clauses.
