I give way to my hon. Friend the Member for Clwyd South (Susan Elan Jones).

When Members are a little shy, they should have a little encouragement from the rest of us. I worry that some Government Members are a little shy. They are not usually frightened of defending their party in government. Would they like to do so now, and will my hon. Friend allow them to do so?

I have already made the offer to the Secretary of State, but we have not yet heard from him. All Members are welcome to make interventions, but in the meantime I will take an intervention from my right hon. Friend the Member for Delyn (Mr Hanson).
