I move amendment No. 17:

In page 8, subsection (1), lines 6 and 7, to delete "regulating or controlling the operation of craft".

This is a drafting amendment. My understanding is that the words "regulating or controlling the operation of craft" might be interpreted so as to limit in some way the matters that can be dealt with by by-laws. In any case, I am also informed that there is a grammatical problem with the existing lines 6 and 7 on page 8, which refer to the "operation of craft" by local authorities and so on. That wording is ambiguous. This drafting amendment is designed to be helpful.
