9.50 p.m.

The Minister of State, Department of Employment and Productivity (Mr. Edmund Dell)

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

Mr. Speaker

It has been suggested that with this we may take the remaining two Lords Amendments. As I hear no sounds of dissent, so be it.

Mr. Dell

These Amendments were moved by the Government in the Lords. They discharge an undertaking given by my hon. Friend the Under-Secretary on Report in this House on 23rd April—column 729 of the OFFICIAL REPORT.

Mr. Dudley Smith (Warwick and Leamington)

These Amendments seem to be a reasonable addition which was pressed in Committee. This provision is permissive, it will certainly aid the proper implementation and working of the Bill, and we therefore give it a general welcome.

Question put and agreed to
