HC Deb 02 July 1920 vol 131 c905

As amended (in the Standing Committee), considered.

New Clause.—(Power to revoke or vary Orders.)

Any Order or Special Order made under any of the provisions of this Act may be revoked, varied, or amended by an Order or Special Order made in like manner.[Dr. Macnamara.]

Brought up, and read the First time.

THE MINISTER of LABOUR (Dr. Macnamara)

I beg to move, "That the Clause be read a Second time."

The Interpretation Act gives general powers of the kind, but this proposal is intended to apply to Orders on Special Orders, which are not covered by that Act.

Question put, and agreed to.

Clause added to the Bill.
