I have two follow-up questions on that. Why was it appropriate, or was it not appropriate, to have a similar list in the 2000 Act? That is obviously where this amendment originates. Despite there being individual mentions of individual elements of EU law or international conventions in various places in the text, surely it is helpful to have all the relevant provisions stated distinctly. Again, part of the function of this Bill is to provide clarity and certainty and this is a really good way to do that. I see no reason it could not be accepted.
