Lord MELCHETT

My Lords, I beg to move that this House doth not insist on their Amendment No. 29, to which the Commons have disagreed, and agree with the Commons in their Amendments Nos. 30 to 32 en bloc in lieu thereof. I hesitate to say again that these are drafting matter but I am advised that, as with Amendments Nos. 23 and 24, this is merely a redrafting of an Amendment passed by your Lordships. There is no doubt in my mind about this, just as there was no doubt in my mind about Amendments No. 23 and 24. I beg to move.

Moved, That this House doth not insist on their Amendment No. 29, to which the Commons have disagreed, and agree with the Commons in their Amendments Nos. 30 to 32 en bloc in lieu thereof.—(Lord Melchett.)
