HC Deb 22 May 1990 vol 173 c251
The Solicitor-General (Sir Nicholas Lyell)

I beg to move amendment No. 2, in page 9, line 1, at beginning insert 'If'.

The First Deputy Chairman

With this it will be convenient to consider Government amendments Nos. 3 and 4.

The Solicitor-General

These are drafting amendments. Amendment No. 2 would insert the word "If"; amendment No. 3 would leave out the word "and" and would insert the word "or"; and amendment No. 4 would make a rather more substantial change and remove the word "shall" and insert the words intend to grant listed building consent they shall first". All the amendments relate to the duties of a local planning authority to which an application may be made for listed building consent.

Amendment agreed to.

Amendments made: No. 3, in page 9, line 2, leave out 'and' and insert 'or'.

No. 4, in page 9, line 4, leave out 'shall' and insert 'intend to grant listed building consent they shall first'.—[The Solicitor-General.]

Clause 13, as amended, agreed to.

Clauses 14 to 93, agreed to.
