§ Mr. Deputy Speaker (Sir Robert Grant-Ferris)With this we can also discuss the following amendments:
No. 2, in line 34, leave out 'Part of this'.
No. 110, in Clause 96, page 126, line 40, leave out subsection (3) and insert:
'(3) Where under Part I of this Act a person is to be treated by reference to any employment of his as an employed earner, then he is to be so treated for all purposes of this Act, and references throughout this Act to employed earner's employment shall be construed accordingly'.
§ Mr. DeanThese are purely technical amendments to secure that the basic distinction between the employed earner and the self-employed earner is consistently applied for all purposes of the measure, in particular in Parts II and III.
§ Amendment agreed to.
§ Amendment made: No. 2, in page 3, line 34 [Clause 1], leave out 'Part of this '.—[Mr. Dean.]
§ Mr. DeanI beg to move Amendment No. 3, in page 3, line 36, at end insert:
'(without prejudice to his being also treated as an employed earner as respects that week by reference to any other employment of his)'.This is a point which arose during Committee stage. I have discussed the point and I am advised that an amendment is not required. Nevertheless, to put the matter beyond any doubt, this amendment adds words to the subsection to make it explicit that a person can be both employed and self-employed during the same period.
§ Amendment agreed to.
