Sir John Keane Sir John Keane

Sir John Keane: I am not moving this motion: “That the Emergency

1507 1508

Powers (No. 77) Order, 1941 tabled on 8th May, 1941 be and is hereby annulled.” Since I put it on the Order Paper it has been explained to me by the Minister for Finance that it was not the intention to suspend the usual [1507] method of revising values, but merely to provide for a situation where it was physically impossible, as for instance, in the case of the country being [1508] occupied by an enemy, or some physical disability of that kind.

Motion not moved.

The Seanad adjourned sine die at 8.15 p.m.
