Proceeding contribution from Rob Marris (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 30 April 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Finance Bill.


Finance Bill

I do not wish to prolong the debate, but I have to say to my hon. Friend that it is news to me that the Gambling Commission has the power to interpret primary legislation, and that is what the provision will be. However, I think that I understand the spirit of the Government’s approach to schedule 1, which is that credit card companies and other such companies should not be covered. One way forward might be to consider a definition of ““facilities”” in proposed new section 26A(3). Question put and agreed to. Clause 7 ordered to stand part of the Bill. Clause 8 ordered to stand part of the Bill. Schedule 1 agreed to.
