vision. I hope that that will not be so and that it will all work out. But clearly, if it does not work out, a considerable review will have to take place after experience of the operation of the Bill, and it may well be that substantial changes will have to be brought forward.

This is not the final stage in the parliamentary passage of the Bill. As has been pointed out, the discussion on the Bill in the other place will have to pick up some points which we have left uncovered. However, the Bill leaves this House at this stage in a better condition than that in which it came before us. I congratulate the Minister of State and thank all my hon. Friends for the contributions they have made to ensuring that the Bill does so.
