Statute Law Revision Bill 2007: Report and Final Stages
9:00 pm
Tom Kitt (Dublin South, Fianna Fail)
I move amendment No. 1:
In page 8, between lines 47 and 48, to insert the following:
"
| 1867 (30 & 31 Vict.) c. 139 | Drainage and Improvement of Lands Supplemental Act (Ireland) 1867 | In section 3 by substituting "Drainage and Improvement of Lands Supplemental Act (Ireland) (No. 2) 1867" for "Drainage and Improvement of Lands Supplemental Act (Ireland) 1867". | Drainage and Improvement of Lands Supplemental Act (Ireland) (No. 2) 1867 |
".
These are drafting amendments which concern changes to the number of two Drainage and Improvement of Lands Supplemental Acts (Ireland) of 1867. The purpose of these amendments is to take into account the fact that three separate drainage Acts passed in 1867 have the same Short Title. The amendments are designed to ensure that each will now be given a separate Short Title for the purpose of clarity by inserting "(No. 2)" and "(No. 3)" respectively into the second and third such Acts of 1867.
