Dáil Éireann debate -
Thursday, 2 Aug 1923

Vol. 4 No. 23

DAIL IN COMMITTEE. - DAIL RESUMED.

Bill reported without amendment.

I move that the Bill be received for final consideration.

Agreed.

I think we can take out now the words in the title "pending the coming into operation of the Public Safety (Emergency Powers) Act, 1923." The title will then read "An Act to make provision for the immediate preservation of the Public Safety."

I beg to move that all words in the title after the first word "safety" be deleted, so that the title will read "An Act to make provision for the immediate preservation of the Public Safety."

Would it not be well to make it an "An Act to make provision for the immediate preservation of the Public Safety and for the coming into operation of the Public Safety Act"? That really describes it.

Amendment put, and agreed to.

I move: "That the Bill be now passed."

Question put, and agreed to.
Bill ordered to be sent to Seanad.

I beg to move the following resolution:—"That it is hereby declared that the Bill entitled "The Public Safety (Emergency Powers) (No. 2) Bill, 1923," which has this day been passed by this House, is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace and safety, and that, accordingly, the provisions of Article 47 of the Constitution of Saorstát Eireann shall not apply to that Bill."

Mr. O'HIGGINS

I beg to second.

Is it agreed to suspend Standing Orders to take his motion without notice.

Agreed.

Motion put, and agreed to.

I move the adjournment of the Dáil until 12 o'clock to-morrow.

Agreed.

The Dáil adjourned at 10 o'clock.
