Proceeding contribution from Lord Hodgson of Astley Abbotts (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 28 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Company Law Reform Bill [HL].

Company Law Reform Bill [HL]

moved Amendment No. A173A:"Page 440, line 18, leave out ““where”” and insert ““of””" The noble Lord said: This group of amendments—Amendments Nos. A173A, A173B, A173C and A173D—relates to clarification of paragraph 4 of Schedule 3. It has been suggested that it is easier and clearer to refer back to the definition of ““takeover offer”” in Section 428(1) of the Companies Act 1985 rather than have a more complicated arrangement in new subsection (1A) on page 440 of the Bill. I have tabled the amendments simply for clarification and, as the Government like to say, accessibility. I beg to move.
