HC Deb 18 October 1968 vol 770 c825

Lords Amendment No. 126: In page 102, line 31, after second "the" insert "name or".

Mr. Snow

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

The Amendment rectifies an omission in Clause 110. Since line 29 refers both to a "name" and to a "description", line 31 Mould do the same.

Question put and agreed to.

Lords' Amendment No. 127: In page 102, line 35, after "this" insert "and the next following".

Mr. K. Robinson

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

Mr. Deputy Speaker

I think that it would be convenient to discuss at the same time Lords Amendment No. 128, new Clause "N" (Offences in relation to warranties and certificates of analysis).

Mr. Robinson

New Clause "N" reproduces the effect of Section 116 of the Food and Drugs Act, 1955, so far as it relates to warranties and certificates of analysis relating to drugs. The Clause makes it an offence to misapply a warranty or certificate or give a false warranty or certificate. Amendment No. 127 anticipates the new Clause by applying the Scottish interpretation provision in Clause 110(7) to the new Clause.

Question put and agreed to.

Subsequent Lords Amendment agreed to.
