As amended, further considered.

MR. MURPHY

In the absence of my hon. Friend (Mr. Flynn) may I ask the President of the Board of Trade if he is prepared to accept the Amendment standing in my hon. Friend's name—namely, to leave out from "pilotage," in lines 29 and 30, to end of section?

THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOAED OF TEADE (Sir MICHAEL HICKS BEACH,) Bristol, W.

I have been in communication with the hon. Member (Mr. Flynn), and I informed him I could not accept the Amendment; but I was willing to leave out the subsection altogether. I have been informed that the hon. Member and his Friends preferred to leave the subsection as it stands.

Amendments made.

Bill read the third time, and passed.
