HC Deb 03 February 1982 vol 17 cc469-70

APPLICATION OF PART VII

Mr. Raison

I beg to move amendment No. 27, in page 13, line 9 leave out from 'borough' to end of line 13 and insert 'and (c) the Common Council of the City of London.'. It is not considered necessary to provide for the registration of acupuncturists, tattooists, ear-piercers and electrolysists and their premises in the areas of jurisdiction of the Inner and Middle Temples, as they are unlikely to seek to practise or carry on business there. The Council of the Isles of Scilly already has powers to assume enabling powers such as this part confers and does not need to have them separately conferred in the Bill.

The amendment removes the sub-treasurer of the Inner Temple, the under-treasurer of the Middle Temple and the Council of the Isles of Scilly from the authorities upon whom the enabling powers conferred by part VII are conferred by the Bill. I hope that this important proposal commends itself to the House.

Amendment agreed to.
