division_name: Orders of the Day &#8212; New Clause 8 &#8212; Approval of Mayor's final draft budget by Assembly
motion: <p class="" pid="b.830.2/1" pwmotiontext="yes">I beg to move, That the clause be read a Second time.</p>
  
  <p class="" pid="b.830.2/2" pwmotiontext="yes">We return to what the Liberal Democrats and the Conservatives believe is a fundamental flaw in the Bill. If <phrase class="honfriend" id="uk.org.publicwhip/member/1777" name="Karen Buck">the hon. Member for Regent's Park and Kensington, North (Ms Buck)</phrase>, who has just left the Chamber, had wished to be cruel, she could have pointed out that we were simply re-tabling a measure that we had considered before and that the arguments that we were deploying in its favour had not been developed since we considered the matter in Committee. However, the difference is that new clause 8 commands the support of both my party and the official Opposition, so I suspect that there is a greater likelihood of it being agreed to.</p>
