HC Deb 04 April 1957 vol 568 c633
Mr. Renton

I beg to move, in page 26, line 44, after "twenty", to insert "section (Consolidated statements of accounts)".

The House will recollect that yesterday, in the third new Clause, we made a requirement that the Electricity Council should submit consolidated accounts. The effect of the Amendment will be to bring that new Clause into force from the vesting date—1st January next—instead of the date on which the Bill receives the Royal Assent and comes into operation in the normal way.

Amendment agreed to.

Mr. Renton

I beg to move, in page 26, line 44, after "twenty-two", to insert: section (Supply of electricity to railways)". This is a similar Amendment and will bring into force as from the vesting date, instead of from the passing of the Act, the new Clause which was the first new Clause dealt with yesterday, dealing with the supply of electricity to the railways.

Amendment agreed to.
