I am pleased that the hon. Gentleman has raised that point. [Interruption.] Whoops, there go my notes—I am on my own from now on. The Bill applies to domestic property, but if a property were used for a mixture of domestic and commercial purposes, the Bill would protect the living quarters from the effects of a neighbour's high hedge. However, if the use were commercial only, the provisions would not apply.

Question put and agreed to.

Clause 3 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
