I intend to propose that the House accept all but two of the 193 amendments made by the Lords to this Bill. I ask the House to reject two Lords amendments only because they confuse the drafting of the Bill.

This group of amendments is necessarily large because it encompasses all the technical and drafting alterations necessary for the efficient working of the Bill.

Lords amendment agreed to.

Lords amendment No. 2 agreed to.
