HL Deb 11 November 1976 vol 377 cc813-4

[Nos. 8 to 10]

Clause 3, page 5, line 13, leave out ("subsections (3) and (4)") and insert ("subsection (3)")

Clause 3, page 5, line 23, after ("above") insert ("(a)")

Clause 3, page 5, line 27, leave out ("(4) A notice under subsection (2) above") and insert ("and (b)")

Lord WINTERBOTTOM

My Lords, with the permission of the House, I should like to move Amendments Nos. 8 to 10 en bloc. These are merely drafting Amendments. They provide that subsections (3) and (4) of Clause 3 should become subsection (3)(a) and (3)(b). The two subsections specify circumstances under which a notice under subsection (2) shall not have effect. As the provisions are so closely linked, it would be clearer if they were to be combined. I beg to move.

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