Of course, the new clause also relates to that text. That is what the debate should be about. I am a little clearer, but I am not totally clear. As a lot of directives and regulations from Europe are, to my mind, covered by clause 1 and new clause 1, it is difficult to discuss the amendment without discussing the vast bulk of our order-making powers, more than half of which come from the European Union. If one cannot discuss the mechanisms by which they come from the EU, it is very difficult to have any debate at all about new clause 1.
Friend agree that the hon.
I am grateful to my hon. Friend, who made that cogent and powerful point in his speech. It is a secondary point. Column 555 all-encompassing or not. I would prefer regulations to be more general and, when individuals transgress them inadvertently or stupidly, the power of the courts, including the European courts, should be brought down on their heads.
