HC Deb 05 February 1929 vol 224 cc1729-33

Amendments made: In page 5, line 5, after the word "shall," insert the words: so far only as necessary for the purpose of such transfer.

In line 7, at the end, insert the words: (2) Any reference to the chairman or other member of a parish council in the constitution of any trust (except where the trust relates to a function transferred by this Act to a district council) shall be construed as a reference to a member appointed by the county council or the town council of the large burgh to which func-

tions of the parish council are transferred by this Act, and where functions of a parish council are transferred to two or more such councils then any such reference to the chairman or other member of the parish council shall be construed as a reference to a member appointee by such of the councils concerned as the councils may agree or failing agreement, as the Department of Health may determine. In the case of any trust relating to a function transferred to a district council the foregoing provisions shall apply with the substitution of district councils for county councils and other necessary modifications"

In line 13, after the word "effect," insert the words: except in so far as the provisions regulating the election of parish councils are by this Act applied to district councils."—[Sir J. Gilmour.]
