HC Deb 17 October 1950 vol 478 cc1950-1
Mr. Barnes

I beg to move, in page 35, line 4, to leave out from the beginning, to the end of line 17, and to insert: in such a case as is mentioned in subsection (1) of section twenty-one of this Act, if the authority's works were substantially begun after, but not if they were so begun before, the following time, that is to say—

  1. (a) the expiration of six months from the passing of this Act unless some corresponding enactment within the meaning of this section, being special legislation making provision in respect of that case, was then in force; or
  2. (b) such time, not being earlier than the expiration of six months from the passing of this Act, as the Minister may by order appoint (if the preceding paragraph does not apply by reason of there being some such corresponding enactment as therein mentioned in force at the expiration of the said six months)."
This is a drafting Amendment to make subsection (1) clearer.

Amendment agreed to.

Clause, as amended, ordered to stand part of the Bill.
