Lord Trefgarne

My Lords, I beg to move that the House do agree with the Commons in their Amendments Nos. 168 to 174.

The amendments make minor changes to the content of the annual return that companies are required to file at Companies House. I have a great deal of detail which I can give your Lordships if that is required.

Moved, That the House do agree with the Commons in the said amendment. —(Lord Trefgarne.)

On Question, Motion agreed to.
