Consolidation of offices.
|
14. And whereas by the operation of this Act the duties or certain offices may be diminished, and it will therefore be expedient, having regard to economy, to discontinue them as separate offices, and to provide for the discharge of such duties as may remsin to be performed: Be it therefore enacted, that in such cases the Treasury shall have power, if they shall think fit, by their warrant to order that a consolidation of any office so affected shall take place with some existing office of the court to which it belongs; and any order made as aforesaid for the regulation of the business of such office shall be of as much force as if it had been specifically enacted herein, and the officer to whom the duties as aforesaid shall be so transferred shall have as full power and jurisdiction, for all official purposes, as were enjoyed or belonged to the officer whose duties shall be so transferred.
