Richard Caborn (Minister of State (Sport), Department for Culture, Media & Sport; Sheffield Central, Labour)
The Government amendments in this group make the changes necessary to ensure that the Bill is consistent as it applies to Scotland and Scottish law. New clause 3 incorporates the majority of Scotification amendments required, including the necessary alterations in terminology. Government amendment No. 53 allows for the clause to be commenced immediately on Royal Assent. Government amendment No. 51 gives Scottish Ministers the order-making power to commence clauses on street trading, outdoor advertising and arrestable offences as they affect Scotland and Scottish venues.
