I agree with the Minister that some part of what we are seeking to do is already in the Bill, and what we are seeking to do is not that far removed from the Bill as drafted. I agree that if someone makes a case against one, by the time it gets to court one has a right to know the identity of that individual. That is the reason the amendment states that when it reaches that stage, protections against discrimination and disadvantage can be dealt with. The amendment might need to be reworded, and the Minister might come back to it on Report Stage.
