HC Deb 06 March 1957 vol 566 cc457-60
The Attorney-General

I do not know whether it would be convenient to the Committee, Sir Charles, to take all the Amendments to the Third Schedule together. They are all drafting Amendments or consequential on the Amendments made in relation to England and Scotland to bring the law into line for Northern Ireland. There has to be a separate list for Northern Ireland. Many of them are merely drafting and others are just consequential to bring matters into conformity. I do not think there is any radical alteration to which I ought to draw the Committee's attention. Might they all be taken together?

The Chairman

If that is the wish of the Committee, certainly.

Mr. Ede

There is one Amendment standing in the name of my hon. Friend the Member for Dagenham (Mr. Parker). to leave out "sub-Postmaster" in line 15, page 27.

The Chairman

An Amendment stood in his name to amend the First Schedule, in page 17, line 21, and he did not move it.

Mr. Ede

If we took them all en bloc, as the right hon. and learned Gentleman suggests, we should be including that one.

The Chairman

Very well; only Government Amendments, if that is the wish of the Committee.
