I beg to move, "That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said Amendment."

This new Sub-section is designed to meet a case such as that of Angus and Kincardine. The district board of control will disappear and its functions are transferred to the two separate authorities, the county councils of Angus and Kincardine, and the Amendment authorises that the appointment of representatives shall be made either by the two counties jointly or by a joint committee, or so many appointments may be given to the one county council and so many to the other. I think that is a good working agreement.
