Order. Owing to an error in the Public Bill Office, and through no fault of the Member in charge, the Mobile Homes Act 1983 (Amendment) Bill has not been printed. It therefore cannot be moved today. We will therefore move on to the next Bill set down for today.
As a bill passes through Parliament, MPs and peers may suggest amendments - or changes - which they believe will improve the quality of the legislation.
Many hundreds of amendments are proposed by members to major bills as they pass through committee stage, report stage and third reading in both Houses of Parliament.
In the end only a handful of amendments will be incorporated into any bill.
The Speaker - or the chairman in the case of standing committees - has the power to select which amendments should be debated.
