§ 3.32 p.m.
§ Baroness FookesMy Lords, I beg to move that this Bill be now read a third time.
I shall be as brief as possible. An Instruction was attached to the Bill asking whether the Bill was necessary and whether its purpose could be achieved at a lower cost by strengthening the existing bridge without widening it. The Select Committee met for three days, deliberated and decided that the Bill should proceed. In those circumstances, I commend it to the House.
§ Moved, That the Bill be now read a third time.-(Baroness Fookes.)
§ On Question, Bill read a third time, and passed, and returned to the Commons with amendments.
