§ Captain BowyerI beg to move, in page 1, line 26, to leave out the words "first day of September," and to insert instead thereof the words "thirty-first day of December."
This Amendment and also the last Amendment on the Paper seek to effect what are really drafting alternations. I am informed by the Home Office that on account of the Law of Property Act, which is not to come into operation before 1st January, 1925, it is more convenient that the 1st January or 31st December should be the dates instead of the dates in the Bill.
§ Amendment agreed to.
§ Captain BOWYERI beg to move, in page 2, line 3, to leave out the words "or she."
This Amendment is desirable because, as I am informed, these words are not necessary under the Interpretation Act.
