Moved, that the House do now resolve itself into Committee.—(Lord Wells-Pestell.)

On Question, Motion agreed to.

House in Committee accordingly.

[The Earl of Listowel in the Chair.]

Clause 1 [Amendment of Road Traffic Act 1972]:

Lord WELLS-PESTELL

This might be a convenient moment for me to say this. I thought that the noble Lord, Lord de Clifford, would be here charged with a message from the noble Lord, Lord Monson, to say that he wishes to apologise to your Lordships because he cannot be here tonight, and that he proposes to move his Amendments at a later stage in the proceedings. The noble Lord, Lord Avebury, has been informed of this, and as the noble Lord, Lord de Clifford, who was going to say this tonight is not here, I thought that somebody ought to say it.

Clauses and Schedules agreed to.

House resumed: Bill reported without Amendment: Report received.
