Lord in Waiting/Government Whip (Lord Wilson of Sedgefield) (Lab)
My Lords, before we start the debate on the first group, I want to repeat earlier reminders on declaring interests for, I hope, the final time. As we set out previously, noble Lords should declare relevant interests at each stage of proceedings on a Bill. That means that in their first contribution on Report, noble Lords must declare any relevant financial interests in a specific but brief way. Declarations do not need to be repeated in subsequent speeches, so if a declaration has been made on Report, it does not need to be made again.
While I have the attention of the House, I remind noble Lords that when pressing or withdrawing an amendment, speeches should be short. As set out in paragraph 8.79B of the Companion:
“Members … pressing or withdrawing an amendment should … be brief and need not respond to all the points made during the debate, nor revisit points made when moving the amendment”.
The Deputy Speaker (Baroness Garden of Frognal) (LD)
My Lords, due to an error, Amendment 86, which has already been debated, does not appear on the Marshalled List and has not been disposed of. I therefore begin by calling Amendment 86.
