AND WHEREAS it is enacted by Section 2 of the Control of Imports (Amendment) Act, 1937 (No. 8 of 1937), as adapted in consequence of the enactment of the Constitution, that the Government may, in and by a quota order, exempt from the prohibition effected by such order goods imported for a specified purpose or in specified circumstances or in a specified manner or in limited quantities and attach to any such exemption a condition requiring the Revenue Commissioners to be satisfied of specified matters before the exemption takes effect :

AND WHEREAS it is enacted by Section 3 of the said Control of Imports (Amendment) Act, 1937 , as so adapted, that the Government may amend, under the said Section 11 of the Control of Imports Act, 1934 , any quota order made before the passing of the said Control of Imports (Amendment) Act, 1937 , by inserting in such quota order any provision which could lawfully have been inserted therein if that Act had been in force when such quota order was made and may declare that such amendment shall have effect as from the date of such quota order :

AND WHEREAS the several quota orders mentioned in the second column of the First Schedule to this Order were made under the said Control of Imports Act, 1934 , before the passing of the said Control of Imports (Amendment) Act, 1937 :

NOW, the Government, in exercise of the powers conferred on them by the joint operation of Section 11 of the Control of Imports Act, 1934 (No. 12 of 1934), as adapted in consequence of the enactment of the Constitution, and sections 2 and 3 of the Control of Imports (Amendment) Act, 1937 (No. 8 of 1937), as similarly adapted, and of every and any other power them in this behalf enabling, do hereby order as follows :—

4. Every amendment made by this Order in a quota order shall have effect as from the date of such quota order.

5.
