THE MARQUESS OF ZETLAND

My Lords, the effect of the last Amendment is to postpone the coming into operation of the Act from 1st July, 1939, to 1st January 1940. It is quite obvious that it is not now possible to bring the Act into operation at the original date. I beg to move that this House doth agree with the Commons in this Amendment.

Moved, That this House doth agree with the Commons in the said Amendment.—(The Marquess of Zetland.)

On Question, Motion agreed to.
