HC Deb 12 February 1913 vol 48 c1145

From and after the commencement of this Act the provisions of Part I. of the Tuberculosis Prevention (Ireland) Act, 1908 (in this Act referred to as the principal Act), shall extend to the whole of Ireland, and section three of the principal Act shall cease to have effect.

The CHIEF SECRETARY for IRELAND (Mr. Birrell)

I beg to move to leave out the Clause.

Mr. BARRIE

I have no desire to delay the Bill, but, having received an intimation that the Government propose to drop what we regard as the most important Clauses in the Bill, and the Chief Secretary has accepted the responsibility, I have done all that I need do in making my protest.

Question, "That the Clause stand part of the Bill," put, and negatived.
