§ Mr. CarmichaelI beg to move Amendment No. 11, in page 9, line 30, leave out from beginning to ' to ' and insert:
' the further licence shall cease to be in force and he shall forthwith return it '.The effect of the Amendment is to provide that if a person surrenders a temporary licence under Clause 8 any full-term licence received by such a person in pursuance of his application for the licence shall cease to be in force. The Amendment reproduces the earlier provision that the full-term licence shall forthwith be returned to the Minister.1201 It is possible that although a temporary licence has been surrendered, a full-term licence will still be received by the applicant—for instance, if something happens in the period between sending away for his new licence and his having surrendered the temporary licence. For instance, he might change his mind about wanting to licence the vehicle, or he may have had a serious accident and not want to licence the vehicle which has been written off, or he may attempt to be fraudulent by applying for a licence and then saying that he has changed his mind so that if the letters crossed he would have a full-term licence. The Amendment is to make it clear that in those circumstances the full-term licence would not be valid if he had received back his money for the temporary licence which he had asked to be terminated.
§ Amendment agreed to.
