HC Deb 25 October 1967 vol 751 c1660

Lords Amendment No. 43: In page 53, leave out lines 1 to 3.

Dr. Mabon

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

As hon. Members know, access agreements may, if the owner sees nothing against it, include excepted land. Any necessary restrictions would be incorporated in the agreement. Plainly, however, wardens should be able to act on any access land. The proviso which the Amendment deletes is, therefore, not apt in a Clause such as the one we have described earlier. It is, therefore, right to delete it. The Amendment does so.

Question put and agreed to.

Subsequent Lords Amendments agreed to.
