the same, and subject to the provisions of subsection (2) any barrister who has been suspended from practising or whose name has been struck off the roll may apply to the Full Court for an order to vary or discharge the order suspending him or striking bis name off the roll.

(2) No application shall be made under subsection (1)-

(a) in the case of an order of suspension, until the expiration of two years from the date of such order or of half the period of suspension, which- ever is the less; or

(6) in the case of an order striking the name of the barrister off the roll, until the expiration of two years from the date of such order.

and in either case where such an application has been made and determined, no further application shall be made until the expiration of two years from the date of such deter- mination:

Provided that the barrister may at any time apply to a judge in Chambers for permission to make such application on the grounds that new material facts have come to light since the making of the order which it is sought to vary or discharge, and where the judge is of opinion that such facts should be placed before the Full Court, he shall grant such application.

(3) At the hearing of the application the Full Court may-

(a) reduce the period of suspension, or

(b) discharge the order of suspension or the order striking the name of the barrister off the roll, as

the case may be, or

(c) confirm the original order, and

(d) make such order as to costs as it shall see fit.

34E. The Chief Justice may make rules to provide for-

(a) the laying of a complaint before the Committee

of Enquiry:

(b) the conduct of the inquiry:

(c) the submission of the report of the Committee of

Enquiry to the Full Court;

(d) the procedure for considering such report,

(e) the procedure for making an application to vary

or discharge an order of the Full Court;

(f) the procedure for hearing such application.".

This printed impression has been carefully compared by me with the Bill which passed the Legislative Council on the 14th day of February, 1962, and is found by me to be a true and correctly printed copy of the said Bill.
