HC Deb 23 May 1928 vol 217 cc2011-2
Sir K. WOOD

I beg to move, in page 22, line 11, to leave out Sub-section (3), and to insert instead thereof the words: (3) Section two, Sub-section (2), of Section eleven and Section twelve of this Act shall come into operation on the seventh day of January, nineteen hundred and twenty-nine, but save as aforesaid this Act shall come into operation on the first day of January, nineteen hundred and twenty-nine. As many hon. Members will appreciate, owing to the extensive consideration that has been given to this Bill, and the time occupied, and the necessity, in order to fulfil our pledges, to consult the various interests affected in connection with our Regulations, we have been advised to fix the commencement of this Act on the 1st January, 1929. That will give us adequate time in which to prepare a good many difficult Regulations that have still to be drawn up and to consult the various interests.

Amendment agreed to.
