Pension Schemes Bill [Lords]

– in a Public Bill Committee at 12:00 am on 9 February 2017.

Alert me about debates like this

[Ms Karen Buck in the Chair]

Ordered,

That the Order of the Committee of 7 February be amended as follows: in paragraph (2), leave out “new Clauses” and insert “new Clauses 8, 11, 12 and 13; remaining new Clauses”.—(Steve Brine.)

I understand that following the debate this morning, Mr Blackford no longer wishes to move new clause 8. Is that correct?

clause

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.
