9.30 p.m.

Mr. Joynson-Hicks

I beg to move, in page 75, line 40, to leave out from "Act," to the end of line 44 and to insert: or (b) by the owner or a manager of a quarry in pursuance of regulations having effect by virtue of section ninety-eight of this Act; the person making the appointment shall forthwith make a record thereof; and a record made in pursuance of this subsection shall be preserved until the expiration of twelve months after the ending of the appointment evidenced thereby and, until no longer required to be preserved, shall be kept at the proper office of the mine or quarry to which the appointment is referable. This also is a drafting Amendment, which is consequential on the separation of the quarry management and mine management Clauses.

Amendment agreed to.

Further Amendment made: In page 76, line 1, leave out subsection (2), and insert: (2) A record made in pursuance of the foregoing subsection shall, until no longer required to be preserved, be open to inspection by, or by a person authorised in the behalf in writing by, a person employed at the mine or quarry to which the appointment evidenced by the record is referable.—[Mr. Joynson-Hicks.]
