I thank the Minister of State for being here. It is hugely important to have an ongoing evaluation of this matter, even if we were to have short spaces allocated each month to review so that we can tick off the ones that have been completed.
Has the Minister of State sought, or does he intend to seek, formally the legal position on the Single Market? I am afraid that the whole idea of being able to access the EU Single Market will get lost in EU legislation. Therefore, has the Minister of State formally sought the legal position on it for hauliers or taxi drivers so that they can get insurance abroad? I am referring to formally seeking the position from our own legal advice here and from Europe. Has he done it?
