Clause 73
Charities Bill [Lords]
1:30 pm

Peter Bottomley (Worthing West, Conservative)
I am sure that what the Minister has outlined makes sense. I congratulate peopleon spotting one or two of the moves from “commissioners” to “commission”, which are a consequence of earlier parts of the Bill.
Is Government new clause 14 precedented? The Minister will know that it relates to the provision whereby, if a charity commission in Northern Ireland is established, various other things happen. I can see the reason for the new clause, and it makes sense, but is it a legislative innovation?
