§ 2.35 p.m.
THE CHAIRMAN OF COMMITTEES (LORD MERTHYR)My Lords, I beg to move the Motion which stands in my name on the Order Paper. In so moving, I think I need say only that these rather formidable-looking Amendments are of a drafting nature, and I think I can assure the House that they may be passed without special inquiry, although, of course, if there are any which need further explanation I shall be only too pleased to try to give it. I should add that these Amendments have already been passed in another place.
