Clause 12 - The supplemental list
Courts Bill [Lords]
10:15 am
Mr Nick Hawkins (Surrey Heath, Conservative)
I beg to move amendment No. 16, in
clause 12, page 6, line 27, at end insert
'and a copy is to be laid in the Library of the House of Commons and the copy laid there is to be regularly updated as appropriate.'.
This is a small amendment. It would be helpful if Parliament had a copy of the supplemental list. I see no reason why an updated copy of the list should not be placed in the Library of the House. It is only a small point, but I hope that the Minister will understand that we are trying to improve the provision of information, and the opportunity for parliamentary scrutiny. I hope—at this time of day, without much optimism—that the Minister might not resist the amendment.
