I want to raise a particular query concerning section 22, which is about making the provisions of the Bill retrospective from 1 January 2009. If the Bill is passed, will the levy be applied twice to certain contracts? I am worried that might be the case, given the dates outlined in section 22. If so, that could have serious financial consequences. Will the Minister of State respond to that point?
