The Minister of State has spoken about the annual financial reports going to the director. Amendment No. 244 reads:

Annual financial reports on the condition, progress, and management of relevant person’s funds; both liquid funds and investments; will be made available to—(a) the court, and

(b) relevant persons.

The Minister of State has said there will be a report to the court, which is fine. She is saying subsection (a) is satisfied by the report going to the director, while subsection (b) refers to relevant persons. Perhaps I might be helpful by suggesting we all put our heads together and look at the matter again before Report Stage. I want to see openness, transparency and responsibility in dealing with funds.
