MAKING, BY THE MINISTER, IN CON SIDERATION OF THE EXCHEQUER'S BEING RELIEVED OF CERTAIN LIABILITIES WITH RESPECT TO PEN SIONS. OF PAYMENTS TO TRUSTEES APPOINTED BY THE POST OFFICE

HC Deb 22 July 1969 vol 787 c1656

Lords Amendment No. 15: In page 43, line 11, leave out "amounts" and insert "amount".

Mr. Joseph Slater

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

Mr. Speaker

I suggest that with this we take Lords Amendment No. 16, in page 43, line 12, leave out second "to".

Mr. Slater

The Amendment puts the verb "amounts" into the plural because its antecedent is the plural noun "proceeds".

Question put and agreed to.

Subsequent Lords Amendment agreed to.
