Rescinding of povers delegated to the Punicipal Council1.
In paragraph 42 of Sir Hark Young's despatch of
It would be
the 22m of October, 1946, he recommended that the Governor
should be instructed to obtain the prior sanction of the
Secretary of State before any Bill for this abrogation of
the powers of the Municipality is introduced.
usual for the introduction of legislation to be
restricted in this way, but substantially the same result
hould be achieved if it were laid down that any sill for
that purpose should be reserved for the signification of
His majesty's pleasure, an addition being made to Clause
XXVI of the Royal Instructions if this is thought necessary.
If you agree with this suggestion, I should be glad if you
would consider what form of words would be suitable to
describe the class of sills to be reserved.
