20.—(1) The expenses of the Minister under this Act shall be defrayed out of moneys provided by Parliament, and the receipts of the Minister thereunder in so far as they accrue under section fourteen of this Act shall be paid into the Exchequer, and in so far as they accrue under sections sixteen to eighteen thereof shall be paid into the Forestry Fund.

(2) The expenses of the Forestry Commissioners under this Act shall be defrayed out of the Forestry Fund.

(3) Any increase attributable to the provisions of this Act in the sums payable out of moneys provided by Parliament under Part I of the Local Government Act, 1948, shall be defrayed out of moneys so provided.—[Mr. G. Brown.]

Brought up, and read the First time.

Mr. G. Brown

I beg to move, "That the Clause be read a Second time."

This is a Clause which would have been in the Bill as Clause 20 but for reasons of Privilege, due to the fact that this Bill was first considered in another place.

Clause read a Second time, and added to the Bill.
