Lord Clement-Jones (LD)
My Lords, the procedure in Grand Committee is quite clear: there has to be unanimity for an amendment to proceed.
Lord Ponsonby of Shulbrede (Lab)
We are not against the Minister’s amendment; we just think it needs clarity. The Labour Party would not object if the Committee agreed the amendment. If appropriate, we will come back to it at a later stage.
Lord Clement-Jones (LD)
The appropriate procedure would be for the Minister to withdraw it, and then move an amendment on Report. We would be very happy if the Minister came back on Report.
