HC Deb 24 February 1921 vol 138 cc1269-70 The amendments in the second column of the Second Schedule to this Act (which relate to minor details), shall be made in the provisions of the principal Act specified in the first column of that Schedule.
Dr. MACNAMARA

I beg to move, at the end of the Clause, to add the words "and those Amendments shall be deemed to have had effect as from the commencement of that Act."

The object of this Amendment is to make an exception in the case of permanent servants of the railway company. The matter is further dealt with in the Second Schedule, but I need this pre- liminary Amendment to introduce what follows. This is necessary so that the action in the Schedule shall be retrospective.

Amendment agreed to.

Clause, as amended, ordered to stand part of the Bill.

Clause 9.—(Construction, Saving, Short-title, Commencement, and Duration,) ordered to stand part of the Bill.
