I beg to move amendment No. 23, in clause 43, page 34, line 39, leave out from beginning to ‘(particulars’ in line 5 on page 35 and insert ‘( )In section 35(1) of the 1974 Act’.

This is a technical amendment and I hope that the Committee will support it. It aims to avoid any confusion suggesting that people could be prosecuted twice for certain unlawful acts. Obviously that is not the intention. That is what the amendment makes clear.

Amendment agreed to.

Clause 43, as amended, ordered to stand part of the Bill.
