§ Lords Amendment No. 10: In page 23, line 8, after "authority" insert "or other person".
§ Mr. BuchanI beg to move, That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said Amendment.
This Amendment is consequential on one made on Report. It was involved with the breaking open of a street, which originally required the local authority to do the work. We extended the discretionary power so that a private person could undertake it, and it is clearly right that the same provision should apply to a private person as to a local authority. The Amendment achieves this object.
§ Question put and agreed to.
