He will also note that in the amended proposals that we are putting forward today, there have to be three years’ data before we can introduce a cap, and that where there is some concern about the level of spending we have to allow the organisation an opportunity to explain why that level of spending is appropriate.

Members in this House and in the other place, there are now greater safeguards to ensure that there can be no abuses.
