We discussed at the end of last month the next steps to take in securing a slot in the legislative programme and policy clearance for the above Bill. You offered to speak again to the Legislative Secretariat of the Cabinet Office. Did you have any luck in clarifying where we stand? Meanwhile, we have put in a contingency bid for business in OD (K) for policy clearance.
