Clause 33 - Preparation of permit schemes
Traffic Management Bill
5:00 pm
Mr Christopher Chope (Christchurch, Conservative)
I beg to move amendment No. 35, in
page 14, line 29, leave out subsection (2).
The amendment would remove the ability of the national authority to require a local authority to have a permit scheme. That is the point that my hon. Friend the Member for Spelthorne quickly seized on when the Minister indicated earlier that he had no intention of imposing permit schemes. If he has no such intention, there is no need to have the provision in subsection (2). I hope that he will agree to the amendment.
