Legislative and Regulatory Reform Bill

No, I do not accept that, but it is possible for the burden on some to go up as a new deregulatory process comes into being. We had a lengthy debate on new clause 17, mostly between Opposition Members. I tried to follow it, and I hope that I have understood the intention of the hon. Member for Stone (Mr. Cash) accurately. If I am right, the purpose of his new clause is that orders made under this procedure would not be binding on our Community obligations. He said, I think, to my hon. Friend the Member for Doncaster, North (Edward Miliband) that if his new clause were accepted, infraction procedures would occur and various consequences would follow.
