§ 8.36 p.m.
§ The Minister of Agriculture (Mr. W. S. Morrison)I beg to move, "That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said Amendment."
On the Report stage, my hon. Friend the Member for Blackpool (Mr. R. Robinson) asked whether, if a grocer sold a tin of sardines, that would make him a retailer of fish. I said that that was not the inteption, and the object of this Amendment is to make that point clear.
