Go n-aontuighidh an Dáil leis an Seanad ina Rún a cuireadh in úil don Dáil an 16adh lá de Mhí na Samhna, 1927, mar leanas:—
That the Dáil concur with the Seanad in their Resolution communicated to the Dáil on the 16th day of November, 1927, as follows:—
1. That the promoters of every Private Bill which lapsed by reason of the termination of the last Session before the Bill had reached its final stage have leave to proceed with the Bill in the present Session of the Oireachtas.
2. That the Principal Clerk of the Private Bill Office shall lay upon the Table of the Seanad a copy of every such Bill, notice of the intention to proceed with which has been given by the promoters in the Private Bill Office.
3. That in respect of every Bill so laid upon the Table the proceedings on such Bill shall be formal in regard to every stage through which the Bill shall have passed in the last Session.
4. That no new fees shall be charged in respect of any stage upon which fees have already been paid in a previous Session.
5. That all Petitions presented against any such Bill which stood referred to the Committee on such Bill in a previous Session shall stand referred to the Committee on the same Bill in the present Session.
6. That no Petitioners shall be heard before the Committee on such Bill unless their Petition shall have been presented within the prescribed time in a previous Session.
With reference to this resolution it was suggested yesterday that certain information should be made available regarding the Bills that were suspended at the close of the Session. The Bills in question are: The Dun Laoghaire Blackrock Dalkey Corporation Bill; the Dublin Port and Docks (Bridge) Bill and the Cork Harbour Bill. The Dun Laoghaire Blackrock Dalkey Corporation Bill has passed the First Stage in the Seanad, and the Cork Harbour Bill is in the same position. The Dublin Port and Docks (Bridge) Bill was committed to a Joint Committee of both Houses but, inasmuch as it was not in a completed Stage, it will have to go through the same formality again, and a motion for recommittal will have to be submitted to a Committee of both Houses. I do not know if that information is sufficient as regards the matter that was raised yesterday. If it is not I am prepared to give any further information required.
