LOCAL GOVERNMENT (TEMPORARY PROVISIONS) (AMENDMENT) BILL, 1924—COMMITTEE.

AN CEANN COMHAIRLE

We will take the Third Order before the Second, and the Dáil will go into Committee, accordingly, on the Local Government (Temporary Provisions) Bill.

Sections 1, 2, 3 and 4 were agreed to and added to the Bill.

SECTION 5.

(1) This Act may be cited as the Local Government (Temporary Provisions) (Amendment) Act, 1924.

(2) This Act shall be construed as one with the Principal Act, and this Act and the Principal Act may be cited together as the Local Government (Temporary Provisions) Acts, 1923 and 1924.

Mr. DUGGAN

I move the amendment standing in my name:—

To add at the end of the section a new sub-section as follows:—

"(3) This Act shall be deemed to have come into force on, and shall take effect as on and from the 31st day of March, 1924."

This is rendered necessary because of the delay that arose in connection with the form of the Bill in which it was originally introduced, and the fact that the amendments then proposed were absorbed in the Bill as now presented to the House.

Amendment put and agreed to.

Question—"That Section 5, as amended, stand part of the Bill"— put and agreed to.

TITLE.

Question—"That the title of the Bill be: `An Act to Amend the Local Government (Temporary Provisions) Act, 1923,' "—put and agreed to.
