Amendment 73 | Commercial Payments Bill [HL] – Committee | Lords debates

My Lords, I thank all noble Lords who took part in this debate. In answer to the noble Lord, Lord Fox, not just on the specifics of Amendment 78, I am always 100% in agreement with the noble and learned Lord, Lord Thomas of Cwmgiedd. That is a good place to be. Despite the noble and learned Lord’s slight downer today on lawyers, I am happy to think that it is good to be alongside an ex-Lord Chief Justice. So I very much agree and would make the same point on Amendment 78.

I thank the Minister for his response. There are some principles that we can return to on Report but, for now, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment.

Amendment 73 withdrawn.

Clause 19: Investigations into payment practices

Amendments 74 and 75 not moved.
