My hon. Friend is absolutely right on that.

Thank you very much, Madam Deputy Speaker.

My hon. Friend makes an important point, one that was highlighted by my hon. Friend the Member for Hendon (Dr Offord)—

But because this legislation is so important and because of the passions aroused, I am happy to give way to my hon. Friend.

For the hon. Gentleman, yes.

I am keen to allow my hon. Friend, who has shown remarkable patience, the chance to intervene.

Sorry?

My hon. Friend is absolutely right: we adhere to the principles behind the maximum sustainable yield.

I am about to use a word that I rarely use, but I am going to use it with greater pleasure than I have ever used it before—no!

I quite agree and we are actively exploring that.
