HC Deb 14 November 1933 vol 281 c785
Mr. SHAKESPEARE

I beg to move, in page 28, line 21, to leave out the word "thirty-four" and to insert instead thereof the word "thirty-seven."

This arises as the result of the postponement of the date of the Bill from January to June, 1934. The 1934 elections will take place under the existing law, and the substitution of 1937 for 1934 regularises the position.

Sir J. NALL

Why is the date being altered if this is merely consolidating the law?

Mr. SHAKESPEARE

The law is not being altered at all.

Amendment agreed to.

Clauses 51 to 54 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
