58. It shall be lawful for the several chairmen of quarter sessions in Ireland, or for any five of them, to be selected at a meeting of the said chairmen to be convened for that purpose, to make and issue such general orders, rules, and regulations as they shall think fit, from time to time and as often as may be deemed necessary, for regulating the forms, proceedings, and general practice of the civil bill courts in Ireland, and from time to time to alter, vary, and annul any previous order relating to the practice of the said courts, and to make any new or other rule or rules, orders and regulations, in lieu thereof, provided that any such rules, orders, and regulations shall not be inconsistent with this Act, or any Act in force in Ireland relating to civil bills. Such rules, orders, and regulations shall be submitted to the Chief Justice of Ireland for his approval; and copies of all such rules, orders, and regulations, when so approved, shall be transmitted to the under sheriffs and the clerks of the peace of the respective counties in Ireland, to be by them kept and preserved in their offices, and there to remain open at all times to public inspection; and such rules, orders, and regulations, when approved by the said Chief Justice, shall be as binding as if they were contained in this Act.
