Order for Third Reading read.--[Queen's and Prince of Wales's Consent signified.]
9.57 pm
Mr. Robert B. Jones: I beg to move, That the Bill be now read the Third time.
Mr. Vaz: I shall be even briefer than the Minister. Only two months have elapsed since the Second Reading of the Bill. I place on record my thanks to all members of the
Committee. The hon. Member for City of Chester (Mr. Brandreth) and my hon. Friend the Member for Lewisham, East (Mrs. Prentice) had an excellent working relationship: it was not so much gone with the wind as gone with the Whip. They ensured that the work of the Committee proceeded diligently.
We shall vote against Third Reading because the fundamental principle remains that the Bill seeks to end mandatory grants. As my hon. Friend the Member for Holborn and St. Pancras (Mr. Dobson) said on Second Reading, it is a rag-bag of a Bill. We--and especially my hon. Friend the Member for Greenwich (Mr. Raynsford) in respect of its housing parts--have tried to ensure that suitable amendments were tabled.
Mr. Chris Davies:
The Bill deals with housing grants. I regret that, as its proceedings reach their conclusion, not one extra penny has been promised for, nor an extra commitment made to, making housing grants available to people who live in unfit homes, who desperately need them.
Question put, That the Bill be now read the Third time:--
The House divided: Ayes 279, Noes 250.
Tellers for the Ayes:
Tellers for the Noes:
Question accordingly agreed to.
Bill read the Third time, and passed, with amendments.
