HC Deb 26 July 1955 vol 544 cc1136-7

Lords Amendment: In page 34, line 24, leave out from "made" to "that" in line 25 and insert: (whether before or after the passing of this Act) in the valuation list in force in.

Mr. Deedes

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

This is mainly a drafting Amendment. It makes clear that in calculating the limit of the rates payable by a charity in the year 1956–57 the effect of a structural alteration in the property which took place in the previous year is taken into account even though the valuation list is not altered until after the end of the previous year.

Question put and agreed to. [Special Entry.]

Further Lords Amendments agreed to: In page 35, line 6, leave out from "than" to "apart" in line 7 and insert "it would have been."

In line 8, leave out "that amount is" and insert "it is thereby."—[Mr. Deedes.]
