There is a significant danger of transposing other aspects that are not in the Bill. The Bill in itself is coherent in terms of section 31. Flowing from that, I have been clear that the technical deficiencies attached to listing all these various directives, which are not related or consistent with each other, in each section of the Bill does not make good legislation. They make the Bill inoperable.
