HC Deb 29 May 1935 vol 302 cc1271-2

11.17 p.m.

The FINANCIAL SECRETARY to the TREASURY (Mr. Duff Cooper)

I beg to move, in page 12, line 7,at the end, to insert: (7) In the application of this Section to Scotland for the definition of local authority 'the following definition shall besubstituted: 'local authority' has the same meaning as in the Local authorities Loans (Scot land) Act, 1891. This is really a drafting Amendment. The Clause as it stands, would not apply to the local authorities of Scotland. The object of the Amendment is to remedy that omission.

Amendment agreed to.

Bill to be read the Third time To-morrow.
