These are the usual formal provisions. Scotland is not included, because Scotland has acted way ahead of us and already passed its own Act of the Scottish Parliament to give effect to provisions not dissimilar to those in the Bill.

Question put and agreed to.

Clause 5 accordingly ordered to stand part of the Bill.

Bill to be reported, without amendment.

Committee rose.
