Clause 252 (Hansard, 20 July 1972)

§ Mr. Speed

I beg to move Amendment No. 985, in page 185, line 8, at end insert: '(2A) The members of a committee established under this section may co-opt other persons to serve as members of the committee in relation to all or to one or some of the matters mentioned in subsection (3) below'. This is a simple provision to enable the committee of existing authorities set up under Clause 252 to co-opt additional members once the committee is set up. These co-opted members may be appointed to serve for all or any of the committee's functions as set out in Clause 252 (3).
