High Hedges Bill
Public Bill Committees, 21 March 2001
Mr John Taylor (Solihull, Conservative)
I beg to move,
That, if proceedings on the High Hedges Bill are not completed at this day's sitting, the Committee do meet on Wednesday 28th March at half-past Ten o'clock.
Good morning, Mrs. Michie. Welcome to our proceedings on the High Hedges Bill, which I have chosen—perhaps trivially—to call my ``Height and Light'' Bill. We all know of constituents who have been afflicted by a particular misery to which the English law usage does not recommend itself. The Bill is an attempt to address that nuisance and alleviate the problems of our constituents.
Question put and agreed to.
Mrs Ray Michie (Argyll & Bute, Liberal Democrat)
I remind the Committee that there is a financial resolution in connection with the Bill, copies of which are available in the Room. I also remind members of the Committee that adequate notice should be given of amendments. As a general rule, I do not intend to call starred amendments, including any that may be reached during an afternoon sitting of the Committee. Clause 1 Complaints to which this act applies
