§ Mr. MillanI beg to move Amendment No. 84, in page 50, line 22, leave out 'the coming into operation of this Act' and insert 'transfer'.
Clause 84 at present provides that, where any functions are transferred from one local authority to another by the Bill, all property, etc., relating to the performance of those functions which, immediately before the date of the "coming into operation of this Act" were the property of the first authority, shall be transferred to the second. But different parts of the Bill will come into operation at different times, so it is necessary to make the reference rather more specific. We are, therefore, substituting a reference to the date of transfer of the functions, which is the more accurate expression.
§ Amendment agreed to.
