§ LORD KENNETMy Lords, this Bill confirms a Provisional Order made under the Hertfordshire County Council (Colne Valley Sewerage, etc.) Act 1937. Section 118 enables the Minister to amend the 1937 Act by means of Provisional Orders. The purpose of this Order is to remove a doubt as to the powers available to the West Hertfordshire Main Drainage Authority to lay sewers to duplicate works authorised by the 1937 Act. I beg to move that the Bill be now read a second time.
§ Moved, That the Bill be now read 2a.—(Lord Kennet.)
§ On Question, Bill read 2a, and committed to the Committee on Unopposed Bills.
