§ Note.—Nothing herein contained shall be construed to authorise the demand of any reswearing any person to any examination, or for any oath, affirmation, or declaration to obtain pay, pension, or allowance from Government or friendly society, or charitable fund, or for any declaration relating to lost duplicates of articles pledged where the amount advanced on such articles does not exceed 20s., or in any other case where an Act of Parliament directs that no fee shall be taken.
§ Amendment made: After the word "Schedule" ["First Schedule"] insert the words "Part I."
§ Mr. NIELDI beg to move, in paragraph "Indictable offences," after the word "duties" ["For the performance of all the several duties in respect of any indictable offence"], to insert the words "including commitment."
This and other Amendments are put down on expert advice and at the request of the clerks of the peace of this country in order that there may be one fee, and only one fee, and I hope that the House will accept them.
§ Amendment agreed to.
200§ Mr. NIELDI beg to move, after the list of fees relating to the Elementary Education Act, to insert,
| "Aliens Act, 1905:— | |||
| For the Performance of all the several duties in connection with the recommendation of a person for deportation | 0 | 5 | 0" |
§ Mr. BIGLANDI beg to second the Amendment.
§ Mr. McKENNAI cannot accept that.
§ Mr. McKENNAThere is no such procedure as the hon. Gentleman contemplates by this language. The deportation and expulsion of an alien is a magisterial act after the trial.
§ Mr. NIELDIt is a recommendation of a person for deportation, and there are certain duties which the clerks and the magistrates have to perform.
§ Mr. McKENNAThe hon. Gentleman does not suggest by whom the fees should be paid?
§ Question, "That those words be there added," put, and negatived.
§ Mr. NIELDI beg to move to add to the list of fees for "Attendance,"
Expenses actually incurred for travelling (such amount not to be payable to the authority by whom the salary of the clerk to the justices is paid.)
§ Mr. McKENNAThis is a table of fees and not expenses, and I cannot accept it.
§ Mr. NIELDIs not this reducing the Schedule to an absurdity? You are directed to levy certain fees, and included in these fees are necessary expenses of persons who are called upon to execute the orders of the Court. If they are not included in "fees," then that word should be enlarged to include them. It is obviously a matter on which the Court is called upon to exercise jurisdiction, and I hope the right hon. Gentleman will see the necessity of making the Schedule complete by accepting the Amendment.
§ Question, "That those words be there added to the Bill," put, and negatived.
201| "Certificate of officer of Court to whom periodical payments of money are to Be made | 0 | 1 | 0" |
§ This is rendered necessary by the provisions of the Affiliation Orders Bill which has passed through all its stages in this House and is very nearly through in another place. I hope the right hon. Gentleman will accept it.
§ Mr. WEDGWOODI beg to second the Amendment.
§ Mr. McKENNAI cannot accept this Amendment because it does not properly come within the Schedule, which deals only with fees to be taken by the justices' clerk, and does not refer to officers of the Court who may or may not be justices' clerks. Neither could I accept it on its merits.
§ Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
§ Mr. NIELDI beg to move, on page 28, line 41, to leave out the words "where payable to the clerk of the peace," and to insert instead thereof the words "(to be paid to the clerk of the peace) such fee as is authorised by the table of fees payable to the clerk of the peace.
| In cases where a fee has not been authorised as aforesaid | 0 | 1 | 0" |
§ I hope the Government will accept this Amendment.
§ Sir WILLIAM BULLI beg to second the Amendment.
§ Mr. McKENNAThe fee referred to by the hon. and learned Gentleman is one to which there is no strong objection so far as I am concerned.
§ Mr. BOOTHOn a point of Order. There are no such words in my copy of the Bill. Line 41, on page 28, simply says "charge cannot be included in the same conviction, 2s. 6d."
§ Mr. McKENNAThat is so. The fee was omitted in Committee, as the hon. and learned Gentleman will remember.
§ Mr. NIELDThe right hon. Gentleman will remember that I handed to him the recommendations not only of the clerks of the peace, but of the county of Middlesex, 202 and he assured me in Committee that he had already received them by post, and he promised between the Committee stage and the Report stage that he would give very careful consideration to them, and that he would endeavour so far as possible to incorporate them. I am afraid there has been an error in the printing as to the place where the Amendment should come in. If he has no objection to the fee, he must obviously know where it ought to come in, and I hope he will accept the Amendment.
§ Mr. SPEAKERIt is quite clear that it cannot come in here.
| Amendment made: Leave out the words, "Billiard licence (to include fee of 1s. to constable), 8 & 9 Vict. c. 109. s. 10 | 1 | 0 | 0 |
| Theatre licence (6 & 7 Vict. c. 68. s. 6), for each month for which theatre is open, not exceeding | 1 | 0 | 0 |
| Registration of music and dancing licence (53 & 54 Vict. c. 59. s. 51) | 1 | 0 | 0" |
§ [Mr. McKenna.]
§ Mr. NIELDI beg to move, at the end of the paragraph "Licences," to insert, "Licensing (Consolidation) Act, 1910:—
| On the deposit of plans of alterations under Section 71 (2) | 0 | 5 | 0" |
§ This is a matter of some substance, because when applicants desire to alter the licensed premises they produce to the Petty Sessional bench a plan of the proposed alterations. If those plans are to be approved, questions of extension may arise and the plans have to be very carefully examined at the Petty Sessions. The Home Secretary cannot object to the person in possession of the tenancy, generally the brewer, who applies for the alterations being charged so modest a sum as 5s. for the examination of the plans. There is every reason requiring that fee to be authorised. It would be no hardship on persons who come forward to ask for the alterations, who will be well able to pay this charge to remunerate the clerk for the examination of the plans. Very often they have to be examined by an expert.
203§ Mr. McKENNAI regret that I cannot agree to accept this. All fees for work under the Licensing Act ought to be included in that Act. We ought not to select particular items out of various Acts
§ of Parliament and put them under this Bill.
§ Question put, "That those words be there added to the Bill."
§ The House divided: Ayes, 66; Noes, 204.
