§ Sub-section (2).—If the Local Government Board are satisfied on any representation, after holding a local inquiry, that a responsible authority have failed to enforce the observance of or to execute the scheme, or any provisions thereof, effectively, the Board may order that authority to do all things necessary for enforcing the observance of or to execute the scheme or any provisions thereof effectively.
§ Lords Amendment: Leave out "effectively" ["to execute the scheme, or any provisions thereof, effectively"] and insert "or to execute any works which under this scheme or this part of this Act the authority is required to execute."
§ Question, "That the House doth agree with the Lords in the said Amendment," put, and agreed to.
§ Lords Amendment: Insert as a new Sub-section
§ "(4) For the purposes of this Section the expression 'local authority' shall not include the London County Council or the council of any county borough."
§ Mr. BURNSI beg to move "That this House do disagree with the Lords in the said Amendment." It is obviously undesirable that the London County Council or the council of any county borough should be exempt. This Clause should apply to them as well as to others.
