We will have to get to the meat of the amendments, but it is important to have a brief discussion on this because what we are doing here is based on the fiscal rules. I welcome the acknowledgement from the Labour Party, as we have heard from other parties, that it was wrong in its approach to the fiscal rules and that it should not have supported putting legally binding rules into our Constitution which are strangling our potential. The penny has finally dropped, but that is for another day.
