I move amendment No. 77:

In page 24, to delete lines 34 to 41 and substitute the following:

“(6) In this section ‘educational establishment’ means a university to which the Universities Act 1997 applies, and in computing, for the purposes of this section, any period that a person must have served as a legal academic, successive employment of the person by 2 or more of any of the foregoing educational establishments shall suffice.”.

With some trepidation I am applying for leave to withdraw it again on the basis of the earlier debate that we have had and the very strong reasons offered as to why it should not be accepted and on reflection I think I was wrong to put it in. I have said that and I am seeking to withdraw this amendment.
