HL Deb 28 July 1953 vol 183 cc1009-10

Second Schedule, page 13, line 26, at end insert—("14 & 15 Geo. 6. c. 53. The Midwives Act, 1951…In section thirty-four, subsection (4)").

THE LORD CHANCELLOR

My Lords, this Amendment is consequential on the new Second Schedule, and is, in fact, a drafting Amendment. I beg to move that this House do agree with the Commons in the said Amendment.

Moved, That this House do agree with the Commons in the said Amendment.—(The Lord Chancellor.)

On Question, Motion agreed to.

THE LORD CHANCELLOR

My Lords, now I have to move a further Amendment to the Bill. The necessity for it arises through an oversight. It is a consequential Amendment, due to the fact that it is no longer contemplated that there will be an Order in Council, as provided for in the original Bill. I beg to move that this Amendment be agreed to.

Amendment moved— Clause 10, page 6, lire 29, leave out ("an Order in Council under section two of this Act or").—(The Lord Chancellor.)

On Question, Amendment agreed to.

Bill returned to the Commons.
