Finance Bill – in a Public Bill Committee at 12:45 pm on 2 June 2009.
Greg Hands
Shadow Minister (Treasury)
Despite the fact that Clause 22 is a page in length, I only have to say that, as I understand it, it is a technical provision that aims to align the definition of the AMLD bandings with those used by the DCMS, as well as raising the limits. We have no particular objection to it.

The Clause just makes certain that the benefit of this change goes to the people who are running the machines.
A parliamentary bill is divided into sections called clauses.
Printed in the margin next to each clause is a brief explanatory `side-note' giving details of what the effect of the clause will be.
During the committee stage of a bill, MPs examine these clauses in detail and may introduce new clauses of their own or table amendments to the existing clauses.
When a bill becomes an Act of Parliament, clauses become known as sections.
