Clause 1 - Dissolution of the tote
Horserace Betting and Olympic Lottery Bill
10:00 am
Mr Richard Caborn (Minister of State (Sport and Tourism), Department for Culture, Media & Sport; Sheffield Central, Labour)
If it is part of the evaluation, the answer would be yes, but in the real world it will form part of the negotiation. That is why it would be wrong to tie the matter down as tightly as the amendments specify. It is also why I hope that there can be an agreement on that issue, and others. That is part of the negotiations, and the discussions about the valuation of the Tote.
Question put and agreed to.
Clause 1 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
