My Lords, in moving my Amendment 6, I thank the noble Lord, Lord Anderson of Ipswich, and, indeed, the Minister, for adding their names to it. I also take the opportunity again to thank the noble Lord, Lord Anderson of Ipswich, for the excellent job he did in chairing, steering and keeping us focused through our Special Public Bill Committee procedure.
Amendment 6 is incredibly simple and straightforward: it takes the Long Title of the Bill and makes a change so that it fits perfectly with the operative clause within the Bill. As noble Lords will be aware, the Long Title has no operative impact. So, why go to the trouble of making the change? Firstly, for issues of clarity, consistency and certainty—to tidy up the Bill at this stage. But, far more importantly than that, because, as mentioned in earlier groups, the world is watching when we pass this legislation, and the signal that the Bill sends out is critically important. That signal—the signposting—means that, if anyone, anywhere on the planet, merely reads only the Long Title, they will get from that the purpose of the Bill, what it is all about and how it is going about it. It is a simple, straightforward amendment, which I am delighted the Minister has put his name to.
Lastly, as these are almost the last words I will say on the Bill, I will say just two things. We hear very often in these parts about a black hole measured in various billions. What about the opportunities enabled through the Bill for a goldmine? A digital, virtual, intangible goldmine, yes, but a potential digital assets goldmine measured in the trillions. The Property (Digital Assets etc) Bill is future facing, future-proofing, growth enabling ground-breaking and good for innovation, investment, citizen, consumer and the country. I beg to move.
