HL Deb 28 July 1977 vol 386 c1131

[References are to Bill [158] as first printed for the Commons]

1 Clause 3, page 3, line 4, leave out "Rent Act 1968" and insert "Rent Act 1977".

2 Clause 8, page 6, line 32, leave out "Rent Act 1968" and insert "Rent Act 1977".

The Lord CHANCELLOR

My Lords, I beg to move that this House doth agree with the Commons in their Amendments Nos. 1 and 2. These are purely drafting Amendments. They substitute for references to the Rent Act 1968 references to the Rent Act 1977. The latter comes before your Lordships in a moment and is still a Bill, but we hope it will shortly become law. These Amendments correct drafting errors which have hitherto escaped notice. I beg to move.

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

On Question, Motion agreed to.
