Lord Anderson of Ipswich (CB)
I believe the Deputy Speaker so directed at the outset of this debate—but I will be corrected if I am wrong about that.
Lord Berkeley of Knighton (CB)
My Lords, I would like to ask the noble Lord, and not from a musical perspective, whether if we change the words “more than minor” to “major” we might not make some progress, because surely that is what they mean.
Lord Anderson of Ipswich (CB)
I am conscious that an expert musician will certainly know the difference between minor and major. I take refuge in the fact that there is no such amendment before us, so perhaps I do not need to answer that today.
