§
Lords Amendment: In page 55, line 34, leave out paragraphs (f) and (g), and insert:
Provided that a notice or other document that is required or authorised to be served on or given to a person as having an interest in, or being an occupier of, any premises shall be deemed to be duly served on that person,—
- (i) where he is a person having an interest and his name cannot be ascertained after reasonable inquiry, or where he is an occupier, if it is addressed to him by the description of 'the owner' or 'the occupier' as the case may be, of the premises (describing them) and delivered, left or sent as mentioned in paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this Section;
- (ii) where he is a person having an interest and his address cannot be ascertained after reasonable inquiry, or where he is an occupier, if the notice or other document (addressed to him either by name or in accordance with paragraph (i) of this proviso, and marked in such manner as may be prescribed for securing that it shall be plainly identifiable as a communication of importance) is sent in a prepaid registered letter to those premises and is not returned to the authority sending it, or is delivered to some person on those premises, or is affixed conspicuously to some object on those premises;
§ Mr. W. S. MorrisonI beg to move, "That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said Amendment." 2211 This is a purely drafting and machinery Amendment, a redrafting of some proposals already before us regarding notice, picking up several suggestions made by hon. Members in the course of the Debate.
§ Question put, and agreed to.
