Lord WINTERBOTTOM

My Lords, I understand that no Amendments have been set down to this Bill and that no noble Lord has indicated a wish to move an Amendment or to speak in Committee. Unless, therefore, any noble Lord objects, I beg to move that the Order of Commitment be discharged.

Moved, That the Order of Commitment be discharged.—(Lord Winterbottom.)

On Question, Motion agreed to.

Then, Standing Order No. 44 having been suspended, pursuant to Resolution:

Lord WINTERBOTTOM

My Lords, I beg to move that this Bill be now read a third time.

Moved, That the Bill be now read 3a.—(Lord Winterbottom.)

Lord BEAUMONT of WHITLEY

My Lords, I should like to thank the Minister for the very full letter that he wrote on the points I raised and for his undertaking that they would be seriously considered. I know that a great many people interested in the development of the British film as an art form will be extremely pleased by this undertaking.

Lord WINTERBOTTOM

My Lords, I thank the noble Lord.

On Question, Bill read 3a, and passed.
