In Parliament

I would love to give way to the hon.

The right hon.

Yes, I am happy to do that. That is very much in the spirit what I have already said.

No, I would like to press on, if I may. I am mindful of the time, and I want to make sure that we get these points on record.

I am committed to trying to achieve the best solution, whether it is in the Bill or in an amendment to Standing Orders.

My hon. Friend is a passionate campaigner on many of those issues.

I hoped that I had responded to new clause 51 in an earlier intervention. It is well intentioned, but the mechanism is too burdensome.

Yes, indeed.

I always listen to what the hon.

My right hon.
