§ Dr. ADDISONI beg to move, in page 63, line 33, to leave out the word "either."
This Amendment and the other Amendments to this Clause standing in my name are drafting Amendments, until we come to the Amendment in page 64, line 10, which puts paragraph (b) into better phraseology. The Amendment does not make any alteration in substance but puts the matter in better form.
§ Amendment agreed to.
§ Further Amendments made: In page 63, line 33, after the word "Lands," insert the words "the Commissioners of Works."
§
In page 63, line 35, leave out the words "or of" and insert instead thereof, the words:
of Crown Lands, the Commissioners of Works, or.
§
In page 64, line 10, leave out from the word "authorise" to the word "or" in line 28, and insert instead therof the words:
any person to do any work on, over, or under, or to use for any purpose any tidal
189
lands or any lands belonging to His Majesty in right of the Crown, the Duchy of Lancaster, the Duchy of Cornwall, or any Government Department, except—
(i) with the consent of the owner of the land; and
(ii) in the case of tidal lands, with the consent also of the Board of Trade; and
(iii) in any case otherwise than in accordance with the approved plans and sections and subject to the prescribed restrictions and conditions;
so, however, that nothing in this paragraph shall apply to work done in maintaining existing works on tidal lands, or land not in the occupation of His Majesty, the Duke of Cornwall, or a Government Department.
§ In line 33, leave out from the word "Trade" to the word "as" in line 35, and insert instead thereof the words "or the owner of the lands."
§ In line 36, leave out the word "works," and insert instead thereof the word "work."—[Dr. Addison.]
