Earl FerrersMy Lords, I beg to move that the House do agree with the Commons in their Amendment No. 13. I spoke to this amendment with Amendment No. 9.

§ The Deputy SpeakerMy Lords, I understood that the Motion to agree to Commons Amendments Nos. 13 to 16 had been moved en bloc. Perhaps it would be your Lordships' wish that Commons Amendment No. 17 should be considered.
