Protection of the Environment Bill 2003: Committee Stage.
2:30 pm
Michael McCarthy (Labour)
I move amendment No. 20:
In page 36, line 2, after "oath" to insert "or affirmation".
This is a technical amendment. I propose it to improve the drafting of the Bill. My understanding is that the Oaths Act 1888 does recognise affirmation but that is only in legal terms. That is the reason for this technical amendment.
