§ Mr. AncramI beg to move amendment No. 80, in page 25, line 13, leave out 'or'.
Amendment 80, and amendments 81, 82 and 83, are clarifying amendments in that they ensure, where necessary, that the percentages determining grant payable are applied to the expenditure limit and not to the cost or estimated cost of the work, thus preserving the differential between normal cases of 90 per cent. grant and 100 per cent. hardship cases.
§ Amendment agreed to.

§ Mr. Wyn RobertsI beg to move amendment No. 84, in page 26, line 7, leave out from first 'the' to end of line 8 and insert
'cost of so much of the qualifyng work as has been executed at that time'.Paragraph 4(1) of schedule 1 allows the authority to repay reinstatement grant as a single sum on completion of the qualifying work or by instalments. Paragraph 4(2) makes provision as to the payment of grant by instalment. The amendment is designed to ensure that instalments may be paid only in respect of work actually done. This would be consistent with the provisions for payment of grant by instalment under part VII of the Housing Act 1974.
§ Amendment agreed to.
