I beg to move, That the Bill be recommitted to a Committee of the whole House in respect of Clause 1 and in respect of the Amendments to Clause 4, page 5, lines 11 and 15; Clause 12, page 10, line 3, and page 11, line 4; Clause 22, page 18, lines 32 and 33; Clause 36, page 27, line 20; Clause 37, page 27, line 40; Clause 38, page 28, line 12; new Clauses (Tests of satisfactory condition of vehicles), (Obligatory test certificates), (Duration of driving licences and fees therefor), (Provisions as to dual carriageways, roundabouts and street refuges) and (Traffic signs) and Schedule 3, page 31, line 7, and page 32, lines 1 and 31 standing on the Notice Paper in the name of Mr. Watkinson. This Motion for the recommittal of the Bill is, as I think most right hon. and hon. Members will know, the only method open to me to authorise the pledges and undertakings given during our discussions in Committee.
