Should we include something in the legislation where if there is a vote of the members of the body where there was a very deeply-felt difference of opinion, that there would be some way of resolving that? Would there be a minority report or how would Professor MacCraith see that working? We do not want to see a situation like that arising as we are dealing with serious issues here and there may be complexities.
