As I said to the Minister of State, if that was the stumbling point of the amendment, it could have been amended to require the provision of reasons whether the index was being upheld or amended. It is not a decisive point. It is about accountability and overcoming the suspicion aroused by a method being chosen that experts said was not the best option. One has to assume, if the experts are right, and, given that they are supposed to be experts, as we hope they are, that the index will have to be amended. I hope it will not arise.
