We are about to embark on clause 5. Considerable reference was made to the clause during the previous debate and I am conscious of the reason for that. As it was linked with the previous clause, I permitted that flexibility. However, I would be unhappy if the same arguments were rehearsed again, and I know that the Committee would not wish me to be unhappy.

Motion made, and Question put, That the clause stand part of the Bill:—

The Committee divided: Ayes 12, Noes 2.

Ie: 12 MPs

Na: 2 MPs

Ie: A-Z fesul cyfenw

Na: A-Z fesul cyfenw

Question accordingly agreed to.
