Perhaps the Parliamentary Secretary will clear up one point. He said that the Amendment went so far that, assuming an old proprietor sold out his business to someone else, that fact could be brought sufficiently within the meaning of this Amendment so as to give a right to consideration and compensation. The wording of the Amendment, however, is or any other Act or Order confirmed by or having the force of an Act of Parliament. Is it in relation to those words that the hon. Member adopts that attitude!
