HC Deb 15 October 1969 vol 788 cc551-2

Question proposed, That this be the Schedule to the Bill.

10.15 p.m.

Sir Hugh Lucas-Tooth (Hendon, South)

I think that there is a misprint at line 15 on page 5, the Statute of Richard II, Royal Presentations to Benefices— Chapter 1, so far as repealed". That cannot be right. If it is already repealed, it need not be repealed again. I imagine that the word should be "unrepealed". Perhaps it would be possible to put that right at this stage.

The Solicitor-General

I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman for drawing attention to that matter. It will be investigated, and what can be done will be done.

Question put and agreed to.

Schedule agreed to.

Bill reported, without Amendment.

Motion made, That the Bill be now read the Third time (Queen's consent, on behalf of the Crown, signified.)

Question put forthwith, pursuant to Standing Order No. 55 (Third Reading), and agreed to.

Bill accordingly read the Third time, and passed, without Amendment.
