Clause 7
Mode of dealing with amendments, etc. not authorised under section 4
(1)
If the Commissioners consider that it is desirable that in the preparation of the Revised Edition of Acts, there should be omissions, amendments or additions other than those authorised by section 4, the same may be collected and submitted to Parliament in the form of one or more Acts.
(2)
If such Act or Acts are enacted prior to the date specified in the order mentioned in section 8, then —
the Commissioners shall, in the preparation of the Revised Edition of Acts, give the like effect to such omissions, amendments or additions as if they had been authorised by section 4; and
if as a result of any such omission, amendment or addition, any Act or part thereof has been repealed or has expired or become spent or had its effect, such Act or part thereof shall be omitted from the Revised Edition of Acts.
(3)
If the Commissioners consider that it is desirable that in the preparation of the Revised Edition of Acts or any volume thereof, there should be included therein any Act, not in force on the date appointed by the President under section 2 in relation to the Revised Edition of Acts or any volume thereof, as the case may be, but in force on such date as the President shall specify by notification in the Gazette, which replaced, consolidated or amended with or without modifications any Act in force on such appointed day, the same may be included in the Revised Edition of Acts or any volume thereof and, in that event, any amendments or omissions consequential upon such inclusion shall be made in the Revised Edition of Acts or any volume thereof.
