My Lords, a Second Reading Committee considered the Bill in the Moses Room on Monday 13 June, and I therefore beg to move this Motion formally.

My Lords, I regret very much having missed the Second Reading debate on Monday—somehow it escaped my notice. It was a most interesting debate and I should like to have taken part. All I will say now is that this Bill was very well chosen for the new Law Commission Bill procedure and I hope that there are others like it in the pipeline. I support the Motion.

Motion agreed.
