Lords Amendment: No. 3, in page 16, line 23, leave out from "any" to end of line 27 and insert:
other provision of this Act or to incite or attempt to incite another to commit such an offence".
§ Mr. SharplesI beg to move, That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said Amendment.
Perhaps we might discuss at the same time the following Lords Amendments: No. 6, in Clause 25, page 20, line 1, leave out "19(1) or (2) or section 20(1)" and insert "19", No. 7, in page 20, line 7, leave out "section 19(1) or (2) or section 20(1)" and insert "that section" and No. 8, in Clause 25, page 20, leave out lines 11 to 22 and insert
means the offence under this Act to which the attempt or, as the case may be, the incitement or attempted incitement mentioned in section 19 was directed.
§ Amendment No. 3 simplifies the drafting of Clause 19 by amalgamating the two subsections into the Clause, but makes no change of substance. Amendments Nos. 6, 7 and 8 are consequential upon Amendments Nos. 3 and 4 in Clauses 19 and 20 respectively.
§ Mr. Elystan Morgan (Cardigan)I am very glad to be able to agree with the Minister of State that this is a substantial improvement in the presentation of the Clause. On 9th December last year, when we had Report stage and Third Reading of the Bill, and when many of us wished it godspeed, we little thought that it would be towards the end of May before we saw it returning from another place. But I understand that a great deal of industry has gone into the shaping of many of these Amendments. We readily concede that they improve the Bill.
§ Question put and agreed to.
