I beg to move amendment No. 12, in page 59, line 32, leave out subsection (2).

Their lordships cannot spend money so as a constitutional nicety they have a clause in the Bill saying that there is no money to be spent. Of course, that must be removed by the Commons, which is what the amendment does.

Amendment agreed to.

Clause 64, as amended, ordered to stand part of the Bill.
