Seanad Eireann (Consequential Provisions) Act, 1936

Adaptation of statutory references to the Houses of the Oireachtas.

2.—(1) Subject and without prejudice to the specific amendments in and repeals of Acts or parts of Acts of the Oireachtas made by this Act or by any order made under this Act, every mention or reference contained in any Act of the Oireachtas of or to both Houses of the Oireachtas, or either House of the Oireachtas shall be construed and take effect as a mention of or reference to Dáil Eireann.

(2) Whenever any Act of the Oireachtas requires anything to be done by both Houses of the Oireachtas or either House of the Oireachtas, such thing may (subject and without prejudice to the specific amendments in and repeals of Acts or parts of Acts of the Oireachtas made by this Act) be done by Dáil Eireann and shall, if and when so done, have the same force and effect for the purposes of such Act as if done (as the case may require) by both Houses of the Oireachtas, or by either House of the Oireachtas.
