I listened carefully to the Minister's introductory words. I welcome the extension of community orders to Scotland and Northern Ireland. That being the case, will the Minister explain the use of the conjunction ''or'' in amendment No. 711? It states:

''Transfer of community orders to Scotland or Northern Ireland''.

Why does it not use the word ''and''?
