Clause 41.—(Quorum of Special Commissioners in tax cases.)

The Chairman

The Question is, That the Clause——

Mrs. Thatcher

On a point of order. I understood that Amendment No. 142 was selected, Sir Eric. My hon. Friend the Member for Folkestone and Hythe (Mr. Costain), who put it down, is not here, but I wonder whether I may move it, because it looks to me as though it is one which has to be made. It speaks for itself.

Amendment proposed: No. 142, in page 44, line 3, to leave out ‘subsection’ and insert ‘section’.—[Mrs. Thatcher.]

The Solicitor-General (Sir Dingle Foot

I have pleasure in accepting the Amendment.

Amendment agreed to.

Clause, as amended ordered to stand part of the Bill.
