I am conscious that the Chairman wants this issue off the agenda after today's meeting. I know that will happen if a vote is taken. I plead with the Chairman to consider whether a small group of three or four members could sit down and examine this matter - not necessarily today - and try to thrash out an agreed version. I think the amendment could be strengthened without compromising the original motion. That motion, which I signed, needs to be toned down. I do not think we can arbitrarily decide to publicly list names, given that we have had no part in the investigation, or deny visas on the basis of someone else's supposedly factual information that has come to us at second or third hand.
