On Question, Motion agreed to.

House in Committee accordingly.

[The EARL OF DONOUGHMORE in the Chair.]

Clauses 1 to 6 agreed to.

Clause 7:

Publication of Orders, &c.

7. The county council shall give public notice of their intention to establish and of the establishment of any camping grounds, and of any Order made-by them and approved by the Local Government Board in pursuance of this Act by advertisement in one or more newspapers circulating in the locality, and by placing conspicuous notices on or near every camping ground and any specified place or places to which the Order relates.

LORD CLIFFORD OF CHUDLEIGH

I move, after the words "by advertisement in," to insert "the London Gazette and in. "The object of this Amendment is to meet the wishes of the Showmen's Guild, who have represented that local advertisements of any action taken by a county council might not come before their organisation, whereas anything inserted in the London Gazette would inevitably come to their notice. This appeared to be a reasonable demand, and I therefore move the Amendment.

Amendment moved—

Clause 7, page 4, line 2, after the first ("in") insert ("the London Gazette and in").—(Lord Clifford of Chudleigh.)

On Question, Amendment agreed to.

Clause 7, as amended, agreed to.

Remaining Clauses agreed to.

The Report of Amendment to be received on Tuesday the 11th of June next, and Bill to be printed as amended. (No. 53.)
