§ 11. 45 pm
The Solicitor-GeneralI beg to move amendment No. 2, in page 8, line 22, leave out 'section 7 of the Administration of Justice Act 1965' and insert
section 38(7) of the Administration of Justice Act 1982'.
§ The ChairmanWith this we can discuss Government amendment No. 14.
The Solicitor-GeneralThese amendments merit longer consideration because they arise out of the necessity to cope with other Bills going through the House. Amendment No. 2 arises out of the Administration of Justice Bill, which has been returned to another place. It amended one of the statutes consolidated in this Bill by substituting for a reference to a section of the Administration of Justice Act 1965, repealed by the Administration of Justice Bill, a reference to a section of that Bill.
Amendment No. 14 is a transitional provision, which preserves the reference to the repealed section of the 1965 Act until the reference to the substituted section comes into force. It also preserves the penalty provisions in the consolidated statues until the new provisions of the Criminal Justice Bill come into force.
§ Amendment agreed to.
§ Clause 9, as amended, ordered to stand part of the Bill.
§ Clauses 10 to 36 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
