For the record, the government opposes this amendment. It sees no reason to delay the report of the Ombudsman—in fact, it should be reporting which is fairly expeditious. I think the delay of it is undesirable, but the government will continue to, as I say, consider those recommendations of the committee. At this stage, there is no compelling reason the government sees to agree to this amendment.

Question negatived.
