I attach a draft speech for Lord Belstead's use on Third Reading. The draft

has been prepared on the assumption that Lord Belstead will not wish unduly to prolong the debate, (which I understand is not supposed to be a repeat of the Second Reading). The draft will no doubt have to be added to on the day to

take account of particular points which may be raised in the debate.
