HC Deb 27 July 1954 vol 531 c404

Lords Amendment: In page 20, line 19, after "tenant" insert "and so employed."

Sir D. Maxwell Fyfe

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

The Opposition in another place, during the Committee stage, drafted a probing Amendment on this point and urged that, as the subsection then stood, it was not clear if the words, "for the purposes of a business," which appear in line 19, qualify "the tenant" or "a person employed by the tenant." The intention, of course, is to qualify only the latter, and this is really a drafting Amendment.
