(a) a person on whom notice was required to be served by paragraph 1(3)(b)(i) or (ii) above; or (b) in the case of an order which has been confirmed or made with modifications, a person on whom notice was required to be served by paragraph 1(3)(b)(iv) above,

(3) As soon as may be after a decision not to confirm an order to which this Schedule applies, the authority by whom the order was made shall give notice of the decision by serving a copy of it on any persons on whom notices were required to be served under para- graph 1(3)(b), (3A) or (4) above.”.'.

The Earl of Avon: My Lords, with the leave of the House, I beg to move that this House doth agree with the Commons in Amendments Nos. 246 to 249 en bloc. Amendment No. 249 which corresponds with Amend- ment No. 235 for Planning Act orders, does two things in relation to Highway Act orders. It imple- ments the recommendations of the Spicer Committee on the distribution of copies of confirmed public path orders with the notice of the confirmation of the order. In addition, it requires order-making authorities to inform all persons on whom notice of the making of an order was served of decisions not to confirm an order. I beg to move Amendments Nos. 246 to 249 en bloc.

Moved, That this House doth agree with the Com- mons in the said amendments. (The Earl of Avon.)

On Question, Motion agreed to.
