THE MARQUESS OF SALISBURY

My Lords, I think perhaps it would be for the convenience of the House if I moved en bloc the remainder of the Amendments in this group, beginning with the Amendment to page 10, line 22, and ending with the Amendment to page 62, line 10. These Amendments all deal with the same point. I therefore beg to move that this House do insist on the said Amendments.

Moved, That this House do insist on the said Amendments.—(The Marquess of Salisbury.)

VISCOUNT ADDISON

My Lords, in accordance with the understanding at which we arrived when we took a Division on the first Amendment in the group, we will not ask the House to divide again, it being understood that my views remain the same.
