Resolution reported,That, for the purposes of any Act of the present Session to restrict eviction from dwellings and to postpone the decontrol of formerly requisitioned dwellings, it is expedient to authorise any increase in the sums payable out of moneys provided by Parliament—
which is attributable to any provision of the said Act of the present Session extending the period in respect of which the rent recoverable from certain persons is restricted and local authorities are required to make payments to landlords under section 4(4) of the Requisitioned Houses and Housing (Amendment) Act 1955.
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.
