HC Deb 26 July 1984 vol 64 cc1343-4

Lords amendment No. 16 agreed to.

Lords amendment: No. 17, in page 13, line 8, after "shall" insert except where the circumstances fall within paragraph 2 of Schedule (Alternative accommodation) to this Act,

Mr. Gow

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

Mr. Deputy Speaker

With this it will be convenient to take Lords amendments Nos. 18 to 20 and 65.

Mr. Gow

The purpose of the amendments is to clarify the circumstances in which a person being granted a secure tenancy under clause 8 is to be given a dwelling other than that being repurchased by the authority. It was a point about which the hon. Member for Norwood (Mr. Fraser) expressed concern in Committee. I hope that he will feel that the amendment goes a long way to meet his point.

Question put and agreed to.—[Special Entry.]
