I must accept what the Minister says. I appreciate that she tried to arrange a briefing for me at lunchtime but I could not attend it. I could make the same point I made this morning about more time. I understand the Minister must rush the Bill through the House and acknowledge she is trying to correct the position but at the same time I do not accept what she said about limits. It is about protecting the people. The trustees should have the power and I am sorry the Minister cannot see a way to accept the amendment.
