I move Article 43:—"The Parliament/Oireachtas may create subordinate legislatures, but it shall not confer thereon any powers in respect of the Navy, Army, or Air Force, alienage or naturalisation, coinage, legal tender, trade marks, designs, merchandise marks, copyright, patent rights, weights and measures, submarine cables, wireless telegraphy, post office, railways, aerial navigation, customs and excise." There is an amendment in the name of Deputy Johnson: "To delete all after ‘legislatures' on lines 1-2 and insert ‘with such powers as may be decided by law.' " We accept Deputy Johnson's amendment.
DEBATES ON ADJOURNMENT. - ARTICLE 43.
Mr. ERNEST BLYTHE:
Mr. GAVAN DUFFY:
That meets my amendment: "To omit all words after the words ‘The Parliament/Oireachtas may create subordinate legislatures." I am satisfied with Deputy Johnson's amendment. I withdraw my amendment.
Motion made and question put: "That Article 43, as amended, stand part of the Bill."
Carried.
