(1) The enactments mentioned in the first and second columns of Part I of the Third Schedule to this Act, being enactments which to the extent specified in the third column of that Part of that Schedule should be repealed in view of the foregoing provisions of this Act, are hereby repealed to the extent so specified. (2) The enactments mentioned in the first and second columns of Part II of the Third Schedule to this Act, being enactments which to the extent specified in the third column of that Part of that Schedule have by lapse of time or otherwise become obsolete or unnecessary and which should be repealed with a view to the consolidation of enactments relating to mid-wives, are hereby repealed to the extent so specified.—[Mr. Blenkinsop.]

Brought up, and read the First time.

Mr. Blenkinsop

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

This Clause, together with the alterations to the Third Schedule, to which I have already referred, is an attempt to aid in the later consolidation of the Midwives Acts.

Question put, and agreed to.

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