HL Deb 23 June 1898 vol 59 c1173

Amendment proposed— Page 1, line 19, leave out sub-section 4."—(Lord Heneage.)

LORD HENEAGE

My Lords, when I moved the Second Reading of this Bill I stated that there were two additions in it which were not in the Government Bill of last year. I stated then that if the Board of Trade objected to the proviso No. 4 to clause 1 I should be perfectly willing to take it out of the Bill. My noble Friend the Secretary to the Board of Trade did take exception to the clause, and I must say I am inclined to agree with him that the sub-section is better out of the Bill. Therefore I moved that sub-section 4 be omitted.

Question put.

Amendment agreed to.
