Company Law Reform Bill [HL]

My Lords, as the noble Lord, Lord Hodgson, has said, my name and that of my noble friend Lord Razzall are attached to these amendments. We support them for the reasons outlined by the noble Lord at the beginning of his remarks: we believe that it is much better to key this in to the Charities Bill with its criteria and definitions than to leave it here by itself. I support the amendments and I hope that the Government will give them favourable consideration.
