United Kingdom Internal Market Bill (Money) — 14 Sep 2020 at 21:48
The majority of MPs voted to authorise the spending of public money for a broad range of economic, cultural, sporting, educational and administrative purposes linked to the Internal Market Bill and regulations made under its provisions.
The motion supported by a majority of MPs in this vote was:
- That, for the purposes of any Act resulting from the United Kingdom Internal Market Bill, it is expedient to authorise the payment out of money provided by Parliament of—
- (1) sums required for providing financial assistance to any person for or in connection with any of the following purposes—
- (a) promoting (including contributing directly or indirectly to) economic development in the United Kingdom or any area of the United Kingdom;
- (b) providing (including, acquiring, designing, constructing, converting, improving, operating or repairing) infrastructure at places in the United Kingdom;
- (c) supporting cultural activities, projects and events that directly or indirectly benefit the United Kingdom or particular areas of the United Kingdom;
- (d) supporting activities, projects and events relating to sport or other physical recreation that directly or indirectly benefit the United Kingdom or particular areas of the United Kingdom;
- (e) supporting international educational and training activities and exchanges;
- (f) supporting educational and training activities and exchanges within the United Kingdom;
- (2) any administrative expenditure incurred by a Minister of the Crown or the Competition and Markets Authority by virtue of the Act.
Clause 46[1] of the Bill stated:
- (1)A Minister of the Crown may, out of money provided by Parliament, provide financial assistance to any person for, or in connection with, any of the following purposes—
- (a)promoting economic development in the United Kingdom or any area of the United Kingdom;
- (b)providing infrastructure at places in the United Kingdom (including infrastructure in connection with any of the other purposes mentioned in this section);
- (c)supporting cultural activities, projects and events that the Minister considers directly or indirectly benefit the United Kingdom or particular areas of the United Kingdom;
- (d)supporting activities, projects and events relating to sport that the Minister considers directly or indirectly benefit the United Kingdom or particular areas of the United Kingdom;
- (e)supporting international educational and training activities and exchanges;
- (f)supporting educational and training activities and exchanges within the United Kingdom
Section (1) of the money motion appears to largely correspond with that clause.
