HC Deb 29 July 1958 vol 592 c1181

Lords Amendment: In page 47, line 33, at end insert: (4) References in this section to compensation under this Act do not include any compensation payable in accordance with any enactment applied by section thirteen or section sixteen of this Act, or any sum payable in accordance with any enactment applied by section forty-five of this Act.

Sir I. Horobin

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

This is really a drafting Amendment, which deals with the method of claiming compensation under the Bill. Its effect is that it will not apply to claims for compensation under certain provisions of other Acts, which are applied by the Bill. These will be dealt with in accordance with the provisions of the Acts in question. We do not think it right that the complicated and somewhat novel procedure in this Bill should override provisions already laid down in other Acts.

Question put and agreed to.
