I am grateful to the Rt. Hon Gentleman for this question, I know he has been a staunch advocate on this issue.

As the Rt. Hon member is aware there is an important Upper Tribunal judgment pending on this matter and it is right to wait for the outcome of that. But we have been reviewing our approach in the meantime and I will meet the Hon. Member once that review is complete.
