  The majority of MPs voted not to only allow the addition of one new country at a time to the list of countries from which requests for arrests for the purposes of extradition for serious offences are considered.
  
  MPs were considering the Extradition (Provisional Arrest) Bill[1].
  
  The amendment supported by a majority of MPs in this vote was:
  
  :Amendment 14, page 4, leave out lines 3 and 4.
  
  The accepted amendment was accompanied by the following explanatory statement from its proposer:
  
  :This amendment leaves out a provision inserted in the Lords preventing regulations under new section 74B(7) adding more than one territory at a time to the list of territories in new Schedule A1.
  
  The provision removed by this amendment stated[2]:
  
  :Regulations  made  under  subsection  (7)(a)  shall  designate  no  more than one territory
  
  The regulations in question would amend the scope, and arrangements, relating to a power for UK constables to arrest people on the basis of a request from an authority in another country. The proposal at the time of the vote was for such a power to apply in respect of  certain requests from Australia, Canada, Liechtenstein, New Zealand, Switzerland and The United States of America.
