Derek McDowell (Labour)

I move amendment No. 20.

In page 8, to delete lines 39 to 43 in page 9, to delete lines 1 to 46 and in page 10, to delete lines 1 to 46.

This is a substantial amendment because it deals with two of the most controversial sections of the Bill. Section 12 deals with section 19 of the original FOI Act.

Sitting suspended at 1.30 p.m. and resumed at 2p.m.
