We will be discussing that with members of the judiciary, such as the president of the Family Court. I am meeting the members of the judiciary who I met this morning again, I hope, next week. The Judicial Studies Board will be involved. All of them will put together a package—because they are the experts—which will be supported by the Government. The members of the judiciary whom I have spoken to have indicated the need to involve organisations with experience. They are keen that the organisations that have been working on this issue are involved in ensuring that it is well understood.
We are fortunate that some members of our judiciary now have a great deal of experience, hence my wishing to involve them in the legislation. They will also provide practical support to other members of the judiciary to do so. That will be established formally and properly when the Bill passes. I will keep noble Lords informed.
