Clause 15 - Applications: types of abstraction licence
Water Bill [Lords]
9:00 am

Mr Norman Baker (Lewes, Liberal Democrat)
I thank the Minister for that explanation, and I think that he has a point. His argument that the amendment makes a distinction without a difference and that it is also ambiguous seems slightly contradictory. However, I am happy to accept his explanation, and I beg to ask leave to withdraw the amendment.
Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
