§ INTERPRETATION
§
Lords Amendment No. 43: In page 40, line 26, at end insert:
'boat' includes any hover vehicle or craft being a vehicle or craft designed to be supported on a cushion of air and which is used on or over water;
§ Mrs. WhiteI beg to move, That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said Amendment.
It might be thought that the byelaws referred to in the Amendment, as they concern traffic of any description, would include hovercraft, but as there are references to boats elsewhere in the Bill it seemed desirable to include this definition of hovercraft.
§ Question put and agreed to.
200§ Subsequent Lords Amendment agreed to.
§
Lords Amendment No. 45: In page 41, line 15, at end insert:
except that Parts III and IV of Schedule 3 shall come into force on such day as the Minister may by order, made by statutory instrument, appoint and such an order shall not be effective until approved by a resolution of each House of Parliament.
§ 11.0 p.m.
§ Mr. SkeffingtonI beg to move, That this House doth disagree with the Lords in the said Amendment.
The Amendment would delay the operation of the procedure set out in Parts III and IV of Schedule 3 for the special review of definitive maps, which includes proposals for the reclassification of roads used as public paths. Interests in connection with motoring alleged that they had not been sufficiently consulted. Further meetings have now taken place and I gather that, provided reference is made in a circular to clarify the points which were troubling them at a meeting on 7th June, there will be peace and quiet.
§ Mr. ChannonSince those further meetings have taken place, we do not object to the Government's Motion.
§ Question put and agreed to.
§ Subsequent Lords Amendments agreed to.
