I move amendment No. 12:

In page 8, line 40, to delete “boats” and substitute “the canals and canal property”.

Section 7B (5) states: "An authorised officer may for the purposes of—(a) enforcing the conditions under which boats may be used in the canals in compliance with canal bye-laws". The amendment proposes deleting "boats" and substituting "the canals and canal property" from the subsection as boats are not the only things which might break the bye-laws. The amended subsection would read: "enforcing the conditions under which the canals and canal property may be used in the canals in compliance with canal bye-laws". There might be other things in the canals.
