HC Deb 24 June 1964 vol 697 c495
Mr. D. Price

I beg to move, in page 11, line 42, at the end to insert: (3) In this section "representations" includes any statement or undertaking, whether constituting a condition or a warranty or not, and references to making representations shall be construed accordingly. On 14th May, on Report, I promised to consider a point raised by my hon. and learned Friend the Member for Liverpool, Garston (Mr. Bingham). He asked whether, in Clause 10, the word "representations" would cover warranties and ensure that the dealer was deemed to be the agent of the owner or seller in respect of statements which involved contractual obligations. This new subsection will remove any possibility of doubt. There are consequential Amendments to Clauses 24 and 26.

Mr. Bingham

I thank my hon. Friend the Parliamentary Secretary for the Amendment, which appears to me entirely to meet the point of view which I expressed.

Amendment agreed to.
