Commons Bill [HL]

moved Amendment No. 244: "Page 26, line 13, leave out subsection (3)." The noble Baroness said: The amendment is tabled in order to obtain clarification from the Minister. Does the wording of the Bill mean that an Act passed after the Commons Bill receives Royal Assent can be changed under the provisions of this clause? We have the Natural England Rural Communities Bill following in the same Session, but subsection (3) states: "““In this section, ‘relevant Act’ means any public general Act passed before, or in the same session as, this Act””," which obviously it would be. Which Act or Acts does the Minister have in mind? Will she explain why an Act that does not receive Royal Assent until the passing of this Act would not be amended during its passage? I beg to move.
