Political Parties and Elections Bill

My Lords, this amendment makes a minor technical change to Clause 9 by clarifying that the reference to "that section" at the end of new Section 54(1)(aa), which is inserted by Clause 9(1) of the Bill, actually means Section 54A. In doing so it corrects a minor error in the drafting of the current print of the Bill. I emphasise that this amendment does not in any way alter the policy on which the House is in broad agreement, it merely ensures that the drafting is correct. I beg to move. Amendment 4 agreed.
