HC Deb 30 July 1935 vol 304 c2604

Lords Amendment: In page 190, line 21, at the beginning, insert: Any power conferred by this Act on His Majesty in Council shall be exercisable only by Order in Council.

9.33 p.m.

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL

I beg to move, "That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said Amendment."

This is an Amendment to make it plain that His Majesty in Council means His Majesty acting by Order in Council. The second of these two Amendments will make it plain that a formal Order in Council which is made in connection with a decision of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council shall not be included, and that an Order in Council which is necessary to institute proceedings against a former Governor-General shall not be included.

Subsequent Lords Amendments to page 194, line 7, agreed to.
