HC Deb 19 March 1979 vol 964 c1266

SHORT TITLE, ETC.

Lords amendment: No. 14, in page 11, line 20, after "21" insert "(except 19A)".

Mr. Deakins

I beg to move, That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said amendment.

Mr. Patrick Jenkin

Will the Under-Secretary explain where the amendment came from? I have been unable to find it in the Lords Hansard. I suspect that a draftsman's adjustment has been allowed to be made because of a subsequent change. It may be that I have missed it and that the hour was getting late last night when I looked for it.

Mr. Deakins

I cannot give, offhand, the reference for the amendment in another place. I have taken it on trust, as the House must when amendments come from another place, that they have been passed by another place. I cannot help the right hon. Gentleman in the matter but I will look into it. If there has been anything untoward, I shall write to him and draw his attention to it.

Question put and agreed to.

Lords amendments Nos. 15 to 20 agreed to.
