Dublin

Reconstruction (Emergency

Provisions) Bill.

In the House of Commons on the 18th

December, on consideration of the above

Bill as amended in Committee, the Chief

Secretary for Ireland moved the insertion of

amended clauses giving the Land Judge

jurisdiction to make charging orders for

moneys to be advanced by the Corporation

of Dublin for the purposes of re-building.

In

dealing with the matter of the registration of

the charging orders, the Chief Secretary

who had given notice of an amendment

providing for their registration in a register

to be kept by the Corporation of Dublin,

stated

that

representations

had

been

made

to him by

the Council

of

the

Incorporated Law Society of Ireland that

the register he proposed was not the best to

have formed, and he stated that an amend

ment had been drafted in accordance with

the suggestions of

the Incorporated Law

Society, in which he understood the Land

Judge concurred, and which amendment

would be moved by Mr. Brady in place of

the amendment on the paper.

Mr. Brady moved to insert the following

new sub-section to clause 4 :—

" It shall be the duty of the Corporation

to cause each charging order to be registered

forthwith in a special register to be kept

for the purpose by the Registrar of Deeds.

The special register shall be kept, and

registration therein shall be effected in

such manner as may be prescribed by

regulations made by the Land Judge, and

the registration of an order in accordance

with those regulations shall be in substitu

tion for registration under any enactments

relating to registration, and the order and

the charge thereby created shall be exempt

from the provisions of any such enactments

accordingly.

" The regulations may—

"

(a)

Provide for the register being

open for inspection at all reasonable

times, and for the issue of certificates as

to orders registered, and as to entries

with respect to any specified land or

interest;

"

(b)

Prescribe the fees which may be

charged for inspection or for certificates,

and the method in which the fees are

to be applied and accounted for;

"

(c)

Provide for any other matters in

respect of which, in the opinion of the

Land Judge, provision ought

to be

made."

Mr. Brady stated that he would like to

take the opportunity on

behalf of

the

Incorporated Law Society of Ireland of

thanking the right hon. gentleman for the

sympathetic consideration which he extended

to the representations made by the Society

to him, and also to the learned judge who is

to take charge of this matter. There was no

controversy about this clause. The Dublin

Corporation had had an opportunity of

considering

it.

It was considered very

undesirable that a new register should be

set up in view of the existing Registry of

Deeds. All the parties, including the Pro

perty Losses Association, had considered the

matter, and this new sub-clause has been

agreed to.

The amendment was agreed to.
