HC Deb 09 May 1939 vol 347 cc407-8

9.37 p.m.

The Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster (Mr. W. S. Morrison)

I beg to move, in page 9, line 36, after "or" to insert "commercial."

This is a drafting Amendment to make it clear that these are commercial buildings.

Amendment agreed to.

Mr. W. S. Morrison

I beg to move, in page 9, line 39, to leave out paragraph (a).

The Committee will see that this is also a drafting Amendment. The words, "the passing of this Act" are surplus to the requirements of the Clause, because one of the relevant dates referred to in the Sub-section is the making of an Order, which cannot be done until after the passing of the Act. It, therefore, assumes that the Act has been passed, and the words which I move to leave out are not required.

Amendment agreed to.

Clause, as amended, ordered to stand part of the Bill.
