Mr. Webb: On a point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker. Would you clarify what would happen if the right hon. Member for Birkenhead (Mr. Field) did not pursue his amendment (d)? Could the House still divide on amendments (b) and (c), which have attracted support throughout the House?
Madam Deputy Speaker: I am certainly mindful to accept a vote on amendment (c) but not necessarily on amendment (b).
Mr. Frank Field: The Minister can put his flak jacket away for the moment. It is quite clear that the Bill will go to the other place. Hon. Members who have tabled amendments are anxious that they are fully dealt with. I shall therefore not press my amendment.
It being Five o'clock, Madam Deputy Speaker proceeded pursuant to Order [18 May] to put forthwith the Questions necessary for the disposal of business to be concluded at that hour.
