It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Mrs Gillan.
I do not have much to say about this proposal, although I have a few questions that the Minister might be able to help me with. If she has time or the inclination, perhaps she might tell us a little more about the anti-avoidance measures. The number of charities affected is fairly tight. Theoretically, all charities could be affected, but how many charities have challenged the Treasury in practice? It would be helpful to know. I have seen a figure of £50 million for the cost. Can the Minister give any figures?
On informal consultation, I know that there was the conference, but can the Minister tell us a little more? Frankly, that is all I want to ask.
