HC Deb 19 July 1974 vol 877 c876

12 noon.

Mr. Maclennan

I beg to move Amendment No. 8, in page 12, line 14, leave out from 'canvassing' to end of line 15 and insert: 'off trade premises of debtor-creditor-supplier agreements or regulated consumer hire agreements'. This amendment corrects an oversight which occurred when the provision was being amended in Committee by the deletion of "regulated" and the insertion of the words "debtor-creditor-supplier". That amendment rightly limited the provision for licences covering the canvassing off trade premises of regulated consumer credit agreements to debtor-creditor-supplier agreements. It is not unlawful to canvass regulated consumer hire agreements off trade premises, and provision is necessary for licences covering the canvassing of such agreements. The amendment is intended to rectify the position and clarify it.

Amendment agreed to.

Forward to
