HC Deb 15 November 1979 vol 973 c1617

Question proposed, That the clause stand part of the Bill.

Mr. George Cunningham

I wonder whether I may take this opportunity to ask the Minister to give us some indication of whether there will be any difference in the allocation of funds as a result of clause 2, as it is here set down, compared with the provision which previously existed.

Mr. Peter Rees

I am happy to assure the Committee that there will be no difference. If the Committee wishes, I can explain the precise basis on which the various duties have been allocated and will be allocated. However, if the Committee is content with my assurance, I merely say "No, there will be no change".

Question put and agreed to.

Clause 2 ordered to stand part of the Bill.

Clauses 3 to 5 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
