Clause 3 - Amendment of the Financial Services Act 1986
Promotion of Volunteering Bill
3:30 pm
Mr Julian Brazier (Canterbury, Conservative)
The Minister will not take this amiss as we have had good-natured conversations all the way through, but I find her reply wholly unconvincing. Nevertheless, I will urge the Committee to remove the clause for two extremely simple reasons. First, the weight of my postbag and all the discussions and consultations suggest that the problem is not nearly as serious as the gaping hole that is dealt with in clauses 1 and 2. Secondly, there is any number of opportunities to table amendments and tackle this, including a Finance Bill every year. Indeed there is one going through the House now. I urge hon. Members, many of whom, I suspect, share my lack of conviction on the replies on this, none the less to support the removal of the clause.
Question put and negatived.
