Mr Nicholas Winterton (Macclesfield, Conservative)
I welcome all members of the Committee to this sitting. Goodish progress is being made, and I hope that that will be continued. The friendly environment that exists across the Committee is to be commended.
I believe that it has been indicated to you that there was a mistake on the provisional selection list issued yesterday. Clause 23 was listed in the wrong place. A new selection list has been produced, with clause 23 listed after clause 21 in accordance with the order of consideration. I hope that hon. Members in all parts of the Committee will take account of that.
