I beg to move amendment No. 268, in page 96, line 22, leave out from beginning to 'not' and insert—

'Paragraph 36 of Schedule 3 does'.

With this it will be convenient to take Government amendments Nos. 269 and 270.

We come to schedule 4, which is, as I would have said of schedule 3 if I had had a chance, a technical measure that does not give rise to any new policy areas. I should apologise for the Government amendments, which correct errors in references to paragraph numbers in the schedule in paragraphs 13, 14 and 15. I hope that hon. Members will feel able to accept the amendments.

Amendment agreed to.

Amendments made: No. 269, in page 96, line 29, leave out '75' and insert '72'.

No. 270, in page 96, line 33, leave out '79' and insert '76'.

Schedule 4, as amended, agreed to.

Schedule 5 agreed to.
