While I respect what the Minister said about the balance being provided for in a very careful fashion, the way we have it written here allows for the deliberate vetoing of a meeting between the lay and non-lay side - and we hate marking this distinction - by virtue of the way the quorum provisions are put in place. The Minister might reflect on it. Although it would almost certainly never occur, it is better to ensure people could not even have those bad thoughts.
