Mr. Ede

I beg to move, "That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said Amendment."

This Amendment makes this Clause consistent with Clause 15, on which we had a Debate earlier today.

Lords Amendment: In page 71, line 26, leave out from "exceeding" to end of line 30, and insert "one half thereof."

Mr. Ede

I beg to move, "That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said Amendment."

When a school is substituted for another school, it may not always be the same body of governors who will be managing the new school. The Bill, as drafted, rather assumes that the substituted school would have the same body of managers or governors. This Amendment is necessary to enable the appropriate people to receive the grant.

Question put, and agreed to.

Subsequent Lords Amendments to page 72, line 4, agreed to.
