With regard to the amendments which are on the Order Paper, Standing Order 95 sets out:—
On the Fourth Stage, no new section or other amendment may be proposed which creates a charge upon rates or local burthens upon the people, or imposes pecuniary penalties, but the Bill may be recommitted in respect of any such section or amendment.
The intention of the Standing Order is to provide that any motion which may involve a charge upon local rates or public funds should not be taken on the Fourth Stage, or, if moved on the Fourth Stage, should be taken in Committee. Has the Minister any objection to that course?
