54Schedule 7, page 116, line 52, at end insert—

"11 & 12 Geo. 6. c. 38 Companies Act 1948 In section 219, in subsection (1), the words from "at any time" to "or may", and subsection (2)."

The Lord Chancellor

My Lords, I beg to move that this House doth agree with the Commons in their Amendment No. 54. This is consequential on Amendment No. 28.

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

On Question, Motion agreed to.

Lord Elwyn-Jones

My Lords, to save the noble and learned Lord the Lord Chancellor from utter exhaustion, would it not be possible to move those amendments which are merely consequential together under the rubric of "merely consequential amendments"? We would not seek to invite the noble and learned Lord to put each one to us.

The Lord Chancellor

My Lords, I willingly and happily accept the suggestion which comes from the noble and learned Lord, since all the remaining amendments are consequential on quite a variety of other amendments that I have already moved.
