Natural Environment and Rural Communities Bill

I am not sure whether this is the right moment to raise this, but when I was listening to the noble Duke moving the amendment I glanced at Clause 43(1), and I think that I have found a misspelling:"““A person is guilty of an offence if he has in his possession a pesticide containing an ingredient that is prescribed for the purposes of this section by an order made by the Secretary of State””." Do the Government mean ““prescribed”” as in what a doctor does when he prescribes medicine for you, or do they mean ““proscribed””—which I think is what it ought to be—which is when you forbid the use of something?
