Vol. 87 No. 8

Emergency Powers (Continuance and Amendment) Bill, 1942—First Stage.

Leave granted to introduce a Bill entitled an Act to extend, for the purpose of securing the public safety and the preservation of the State in time of war, the period during which the Emergency Powers Act, 1939, shall remain in force, and to amend and extend the said Act for the purposes aforesaid.—(The Taoiseach.)

When is it proposed to take the Second Stage?

On Tuesday fortnight.

When does the present Act expire?

On the 2nd September.

Would the Taoiseach agree to take the Second Reading on this day three weeks?

We will try to meet the Deputy on that.

I think the Second Stage of this Bill is the important Stage. The other Stages may go through quickly.

This day three weeks.

Bill ordered for Second Reading on Wednesday, 24th June.
