Lord Williams of Mostyn

My Lords, I beg to move that the House do agree with the Commons in their Amendment No. 33. In moving Amendment No. 33, I speak to Amendments Nos. 34, 35 and 36. My noble and learned friend the Solicitor-General gave certain commitments to your Lordships on 31st March. They relate to the functions of lay staff. These amendments give effect to those commitments consistent with the recommendations of the Narey Report.

Moved, That the House do agree with the Commons in their Amendment No. 33.—Lord Williams of Mostyn.)

On Question, Motion agreed to.
