It happens frequently on Committee Stage of various Bills that members are given a commitment about Report Stage. Would it not be better to insert something now that the Minister of State is potentially willing to accept on Report Stage and for him then to come back with the legal advice on Report Stage and propose an amendment to delete it, if that is his advice? If he is willing to support a change on Report Stage, he should just accept the amendment now.
