§ 2.49 p.m.
§ Order of the Day read for the consideration of Commons Amendments.
§ THE MINISTER WITHOUT PORTFOLIO (LORD CHAMPION)My Lords, I beg to move that the Commons Amendments be now considered. Perhaps I might give notice to the House that I propose, when we come to the first Amendment, to ask the House to treat the Amendments en bloc.
§ Moved, That the Commons Amendments be now considered.—(Lord Champion.)
1177§ LORD DRUMALBYNMy Lords, perhaps I may raise a point here. When we come to Schedule 3, Amendments 14 to 19, I have two points to raise on Amendments Nos. 18 and 19. I think it would be for the convenience of the House if I raised these points on Amendments 14 to 19.
§ LORD CHAMPIONMy Lords, I was hoping that it could be done that way. Perhaps the noble Lord will indicate, when I have moved the Amendments en bloc, where he wishes to raise any objections or queries on any of the Amendments Nos. 1 to 19.
§ On Question, Motion agreed to.
