I move amendment No. 1:

In page 8, to delete line 18 and substitute the following: “ “charitable trust” means-
(a) a charitable trust within the meaning of the Charities Act 2009, or

(b) the Iveagh Trustees (also referred to as the Iveagh Trust) within the meaning of the Iveagh Trust Acts 1899 to 1961;”.

These amendments are straightforward. Amendment No. 1 provides for the insertion of a new definition of "charitable trust". This was brought to our attention by one of the larger housing bodies.

Amendment No. 3 provides for a new definition of "constitution" to include housing bodies and friendly societies as well. They are straightforward.
