Lords amendment: No. 284, after clause 103, insert new clause: . Subsection (6) of section 17 of the Police (Scotland) Act 1967 (restriction on functions of special constables) is hereby repealed.

Mr. Giles Shaw

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

Mr. Deputy Speaker (Mr. Paul Dean)

With this it will be convenient to take Lords amendments Nos. 301 and 363.

Mr. Shaw

The changes embodied in the amendments place special constables in Scotland on a broadly similar footing to their colleagues in England and Wales.

Question put and agreed to.
