I take it that nobody's rights are substantially interfered with by this Bill. It does not give the Government any prescriptive rights against an individual citizen's property?
Committee on Finance. - Air Raid Precautions (Amendment) Bill, 1946—Committee.
Bill passed through Committee and reported without amendment.
Agreed to take the remaining stages now.
Question proposed: "That the Bill be received for final consideration."
No. As I explained on Second Stage, we are merely incorporating in legislation the various Emergency Powers Orders which we had to add to the parent Act when we found that certain sections of that Act were not sufficient to give effect to regulations which we considered it necessary to enforce. We are merely putting in legislative form the Emergency Powers Orders which we operated throughout the emergency.
Question put and agreed to.
Question:—"That the Bill do now pass"—put and agreed to.
