The Gazette 1949-1952

U nqualified P erson O n a report from a Committee, the Secretary was directed to institute proceedings against an unquali­ fied person for drawing a letting agreement under seal for or in expectation of fee or reward. Housing (Amendment) Bill, 1950 The Secretary reported that representations had been made to the Department of Local Government in connection with Section 6(6) o f the Bill (which provides that instruments giving effect to the pur­ chase of houses in respect o f which grants have been made will be liable for stamp duty at the rate of i per cent, or to/- per cent, only) pointing out the difficulties which may arise in the investigation of title in future sales unless provision is made in the section for the endorsement o f a certificate which will be evidence that the deed had been duly stamped. The matter was under consideration by the Depart­ ment.
