I listened with great care to the noble Baroness’s answer to my noble friend the Duke of Montrose and I shall read it to try completely to understand what she said. I understood from the last part of her comments that the Sewel motions will be considered and brought up to date tomorrow—I am not sure whether the link between International Women’s Day and serious crime is appropriate. Can we have an assurance that if, in our discussions and in the course of amending the Bill, we create more situations where Sewel motions are required, she will tell us about them and let us know when they are agreed? It is the duty of us in this House to try and keep things right between the two Parliaments so that when the Bill goes to the House of Commons, they know that there is no time lag.
