New clause 9 - Application of company accounts
Co-operatives and CommunityBenefit Societies Bill
4:00 pm
Mr Mark Todd (South Derbyshire, Labour)
I commend the principle of the new clause. Reference was made in the original draft of the Bill to changes in this area. I am reassured by my hon. Friend the Minister's statement, although she may be chilled by the thought of the means by which those changes may be delivered—yet a further private Member's Bill on co-operative and community benefit societies.
May I say how grateful I am for your chairmanship of the Committee, Mr. Stevenson, and to hon. Members who gave their hard-pressed time in the House to consider the matter?
