That is what my amendments require. If a longer period is required for that work to be done, as long as it is in advance of the next budget, then it will be appropriate. However, I do not want, and this is no reflection on the Minister of State, us having this conversation now but something different than what the committee understood emerging nine months later. This amendment captures all of this. The timeframe is the issue. I am not pressed about having the amendment in the Finance Bill, as it may not be appropriate for such amendments. If there is an issue with the date specified in these amendments, will the Minister of State draw our attention to it before Report Stage to ensure the committee will be clear on the work to be done by the tax strategy group?
