§ OFFENCES BY UNINCORPORATED BODIES
§
Lords Amendment: No. 11, in page 14, line 46, leave out "payable out of" and insert:
enforceable, by way of execution, diligence or otherwise, against".
§ The Solicitor-GeneralI beg to move, That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said amendment.
This is a technical amendment designed to remove any doubt arising from the present wording of Clause 16(4)(c) about the enforcement of the payment of a fine imposed for an offence under the Bill on an organisation of workers or employers or other organisation when that organisation is unincorporated. It does not increase the areas in which the offence may be committed or extend the offence provisions. It is simply to remove any question of doubt as to obtaining the fine against the association, whether it be of employers or employees.
§ Question put and agreed to.
§ Subsequent Lords Amendment agreed to.
