Statistics and Registration Service Bill

When the staff of the Office for National Statistics read Hansard, they will note that the Minister did not respond to my invitation to recognise the value and strength of the ONS, and they will regret that. I can see that if the Government do not want to put the name in the Bill, they are entitled not to, but the signal that the Government send is a pity. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendments Nos. 159 to 161 not moved.]
