I move amendment No. 1:

In page 4, line 13, to delete “ ‘intoxication’ ” and substitute “ ‘intoxicated’ ”.

This is a fairly straightforward technical amendment. It replaces the word "intoxication" with the word "intoxicated" in subsection (4) of the new section 4A of the Criminal Justice (Public Order) Act to be inserted by section 3 of this Bill. Intoxicated is the word used in the substantive amendment of the new section 4A and in the definition of the existing section 4 of the Criminal Justice (Public Order) Act 1994 and is therefore the appropriate word to use here.
