My Lords, as a good Conservative, I recommend legislation and regulation only when absolutely necessary.

My Lords, will the Minister take this opportunity to agree with me that the War Memorials Trust and the Commonwealth War Graves Commission do the most magnificent job for the people who fell in the world wars, those who lament the loss of their loved ones and also for us? It reminds us of the evils of war but makes us proud that we continue to look after the graves and war memorials.

My Lords, I could not possibly agree with the Leader of the Opposition to any greater extent.
