HC Deb 29 June 1951 vol 489 c1807
Mr. Dalton

I beg to move, in page 28, line 2, at the end, to insert: 'full restoring lease' means a mining lease imposing on the lessee an obligation to restore to a condition suitable for the purposes of agriculture all land excavated under the lease in the course of winning and working ironstone by opencast operations and containing no provision for the payment of sums in lieu of compliance with that obligation in respect of any of the land or by way of liquidated damages for failure to comply with it. This deals with the question of full restoration, which we have already discussed.

Amendment agreed to.

Further Amendment made: In page 28, line 25, leave out from "includes," to end of line 31, and insert: a dead rent and any periodical or other payment for minerals got under a mining lease.
