HC Deb 24 June 1964 vol 697 c493
Mr. D. Price

I beg to move, in page 5, line 13, to leave out "clearly".

Clause 4(3) provides that a notice of cancellation shall have effect if, however it is expressed, it clearly indicates the intention of a prospective hirer or buyer to withdraw from the transaction.

During the debate in Committee, I promised to give further consideration to two Amendments moved by the hon. and learned Member for Liverpool, Edge Hill (Mr. A. J. Irvine). These were to delete the word "clearly" and then to amend "intention" to read "wish or intention". I am proposing that we should delete the word "clearly" as unnecessary. To add the word "wish" to "intention" would, I feel, open the way to uncertainty.

Amendment agreed to.
