Trustee Bill, 1931—Report Stage.

Mr. Fitzgerald-Kenney Mr. Fitzgerald-Kenney

Mr. Fitzgerald-Kenney: I move that the Bill be received for final consideration.

Mr. Little Mr. Little

1131

Mr. Little: Possibly the Minister may have got the information for which I asked him on Second Reading. I asked [1131] him what were the institutions that would come under this Bill and, generally, how much money and property it covers.

Mr. Fitzgerald-Kenney Mr. Fitzgerald-Kenney

Mr. Fitzgerald-Kenney: I have not got the information as I told the Deputy, nor did I think it necessary to endeavour to make a search as to what particular charities require this Bill. That a considerable number do is sufficient for me.

Mr. Little Mr. Little

Mr. Little: Can the Minister say whether, when the Act is in operation, some list could be kept of the institutions which come under the operation of the Act?

Mr. Fitzgerald-Kenney Mr. Fitzgerald-Kenney

Mr. Fitzgerald-Kenney: Any institution will come under the Act in which a person holding an office now abolished was trustee ex officio for the particular charity or body as it was and the Court records will show the trustees appointed.

Mr. Little Mr. Little

Mr. Little: My view was that something of the sort should be laid on the Table of the House.

Mr. Fitzgerald-Kenney Mr. Fitzgerald-Kenney

Mr. Fitzgerald-Kenney: I cannot see the advantage of that.

Question put and agreed to.

Fifth Stage to be taken on Wednesday.
