HL Deb 25 June 1973 vol 343 cc1772-3

[No. 43] Clause 16, page 20, line 9, leave out "(3) and (4)" and insert "and (3)".

LORD ABERDARE

My Lords, I beg to move Amendment No. 43. This Amendment deletes an inappropriate reference in Clause 16(3) to Section 48(4) of the Education Act 1944 which lays on local education authorities the duty of encouraging and assisting pupils to take advantage of the facilities for medical and dental treatment and inspection. This function is to remain with local education authorities. I beg to move.

Moved, That this House doth agree with the Commons in the said Amendment.—(Lord Aberdare.)

On Question, Motion agreed to.
