I propose amendment 2 on behalf of the Chairman.
Before Section 2 to insert a new section as follows:—
2.—For the purposes of the Principal Act, a person shall not be deemed to be a partial dependant of another person unless he was dependent partially on contributions from that other person for the provision of the ordinary necessities of life suitable for persons in his class and position.
This provision is contained in the English Act. I did not include it in the Bill because I did not want to draft a Bill which would be in the nature of a codifying Bill such as had been introduced in England. That is departmental business, and not the work of a private Deputy. This amendment is in conformity with the scheme of the Bill, and I formally move it.
