HC Deb 09 February 2000 vol 344 c329
Miss Melanie Johnson

I beg to move amendment No. 144, in page 148, line 21, leave out from "and" to end of line 23 and insert— in relation to which a recognition order is in force".

Mr. Deputy Speaker

With this it will be convenient to discuss Government amendments Nos. 145 and 154.

Miss Johnson

These are drafting amendments and follow on from the amendments to clause 260. They bring the definitions into line with those for domestic recognised investment exchanges and recognised clearing houses in clause 260.

Amendment No. 154 defines an exempt person as any person who has been granted exemption under an exemption order made under clause 34, as the appointed representative of an authorised person under clause 35, or who has been recognised as an investment exchange or a clearing house.

Amendment agreed to.

Amendment made: No. 145, in page 148, line 26, leave out from "and" to end of line 27 and insert— in relation to which a recognition order is in force".—[Miss Melanie Johnson.]
