HL Deb 05 December 1983 vol 445 c882
The Lord Chancellor

My Lords, I rise to move that this Bill be now read a second time. It is a straight forward consolidation Bill. There are 14 foolscap pages of derivations, so I will not tell the House exactly what is being consolidated. But it is straight consolidation, and if your Lordships give this Bill a Second Reading it will be referred in the usual way to the Joint Committee on Consolidation Bills. My Lords, I beg to move.

Moved, That the Bill be now read a second time.—(The Lord Chancellor.)

On Question, Bill read a second time, and referred to the Joint Committee on Consolidation Bills.
