§ Mr. StodartI beg to move, in page 63, line 1, to leave out "and 15" and to insert "15 and 19A(1)".
This is one of a group of drafting Amendments. Schedule 7 contains the Scottish transitional provisions. Paragraph I lists various provisions of the Hire-Purchase Act, 1938 and of the present Bill which are to apply as soon as the Bill comes into operation on 1st 580 January, 1965. They will, therefore, bite upon hire-purchase and credit-sale agreements made before the coming into operation of the Bill.
Paragraph 2 provides that later provisions of the 1938 Act and of the Bill are not to apply to contracts made before the Bill comes into force. The same pattern is repeated in paragraphs 3 and 4 of the Schedule for the situation where, in future, the limit of value controlling hire-purchase and credit-sale agreements is raised by Order in Council.
§ Amendment agreed to.
§ 12.45 a.m.
§ Further Amendments made: In page 63, line 13, after first "Act" insert section 25(4) of this Act".
§ In line 33, leave out "and 15" and insert "15 and 19A(1)".—[Mr. D. Price.]
§ Mr. D. PriceI beg to move, in page 63, line 46, at the end to insert:
(2) The preceding sub-paragraph shall apply to any such agreement as is therein mentioned, whether the agreement was made before, on or after the date on which the Order comes into operation.This is a drafting Amendment consequential on Amendment No. 103, which we have passed. It is designed to apply the wording, suitably adjusted for Scotland, of the English transitional provisions which we have just inserted into Schedule 6.
§ Amendment agreed to.
