§ The Attorney-GeneralI beg to move Amendment No. 8, in page 13, line 22, leave out from 'shall' to 'be' in line 23.
§ Mr. SpeakerI suggest that with this Amendment we take Amendment No. 9.
§ The Attorney-GeneralThe purpose of these two Amendments is to simplify and clarify the provisions relating to the superannuation arrangements for the staff of the Local Act Stipendiary Magistrates in South Staffordshire and the Staffordshire Potteries. They deal with somewhat complex legal matters. Unless the House desires me particularly to explain them, I do not think that it is necessary. Their purpose is clear and desirable.
§ Amendment agreed to.

Further Amendment made: No. 9, in page 13, line 24, leave out from ' committee ' to end of line 26 and insert:
'but this shall not affect the operation of section 29 of that Act (payment of transfer values) '.—[Mr. Attorney-General.]
