Amendment to Clause 7 of Matrimonial Causes (A) Bill

Mr Chairman,

I move that clause 7 of the Bill be amended as set out under my name in the paper circulated to Members.

The amendment to clause 7 corrects a printing error in the gazetted version of the Bill in the alphabetical numbering under the new section 11.

Mr Chairman, I beg to move.

Amendment to Clause 10 of Matrimonial Causes (A) Bill

Mr Chairman,

I move that clause 10 of the Bill be amended as set out under my name in the paper circulated to Members.

The amendment to clause 10 will bring section 15(3)(a), which relates to the hearing of petitions for divorce early in marriage, into line with the proposal to reduce the time restriction on divorce early in marriage from three years to one year.

Mr Chairman. I beg to move.
