I accept the Minister's point. Nevertheless, the holding of a by-election a short time before a general, local or European election represents an unfortunate waste of money and there should be some reasonable attempt to address that in the Bill. I will withdraw the amendment, but I reserve the right to resubmit it on Report Stage.
