§ Mr. J. N. BrowneI beg to move, That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said Amendment.
Under the Clause before amendment the Master of Works could require tests to be carried out only after a warrant had been granted and the building was under construction.

This and the following Amendment effect this improvement.
