Marine and Coastal Access Bill [HL]

I am grateful for that response. In my view, the difference is that one word is modern and the other is old-fashioned. On representation and local authorities, the Minister referred to "one-third". On one occasion, he referred to "up to one-third". I never know what the phrase "up to" means when used with figures or statistics. I assume that the Minister meant to say "one-third" and that the words "up to" were a slip of the tongue.
