Lords AmendmentIn page 19, line 4, at end insert:
("or the Industrial and Provident Societies Acts (Northern Ireland). 1893 to 1955")
§ 5.43 p.m.
§ The Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Health (Miss Patricia Hornsby-Smith)I beg to move, That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said Amendment.
This Amendments results from an Amendment agreed during the Report stage. We agreed to make it possible for societies which had obtained registration under the Industrial and Provident Societies Acts, 1893 to 1954, to carry on the business of dentistry even if they were not doing so on 21st July, 1955. This Amendment merely extends that to Northern Ireland, and the addition has been made at the request of Northern Ireland.
§ Question put and agreed to.
