London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games Bill

Amendments Nos. 40 and 41, tabled in my name, are part of this group. Amendment No. 41 might appear to go against what the noble Lord, Lord Glentoran, said, but I am searching for clarity rather than making a point of principle. Schedule 2(4) provides that:"““A transfer scheme . . . may dispense with a requirement for consent (whether arising from an enactment, an instrument or an agreement)””." My amendment refers to Clause 8(8)(b), which relates to the consent of the Mayor of London; in other words, can it be confirmed that the schedule does not override that clause? Amendment No. 40 relates to paragraph 3(2)(c) of Schedule 2, which provides that a transfer can be made,"““on financial or other terms””." The amendment inserts the word ““agreed”” because I thought that I had seen some reference to dispute resolution but then I could not find it. Perhaps the Minister can remind us how this will work. Is it a matter of the Secretary of State’s direction again or is there something in here about reaching agreement?
