AND WHEREAS it is enacted by sub-section (5) of the said Section 17 that the following provisions shall have effect in relation to the making of an order under the said section, that is to say—

(b) any person objecting to the making of such order may within the time limited for making objections send a statement in writing to the Executive Council of his objection and of the specific grounds on which it is based;

(c) the Executive Council shall not make such order until the expiration of the time limited for making objections and until they have considered such objections (if any) to the making of such order as may have been made within the time limited for making objections:

AND WHEREAS it is enacted by sub-section (6) of the said Section 17 that no order under the said section shall come into force unless and until resolutions have been passed by each House of the Oireachtas approving of such order:

AND WHEREAS it is enacted by sub-section (7) of the said Section 17 that every order made under the said section which has been approved by resolutions passed by each House of the Oireachtas shall come into force on the date of the passing of whichever of such resolutions is later passed or, if a later date has been specified in such order as the date on which it is to come into force, such later date:

AND WHEREAS the Executive Council is of opinion that sewing cotton is not being manufactured in Saorstát Eireann to a substantial extent and that it is desirable that sewing cotton should be manufactured to a substantial extent in Saorstát Eireann, and that the reservation to a limited number of persons of the right to manufacture in Saorstát Eireann sewing cotton would result in sewing cotton being manufactured to a substantial extent in Saorstát Eireann:

AND WHEREAS the provisions of sub-section (5) of the said Section 17 have been duly complied with:

NOW, THEREFORE, the Executive Council, in exercise of the powers conferred on them by Section 17 of the Control of Manufactures Act, 1934 (No. 36 of 1934), and of every and any other power them in this behalf enabling, do hereby order as follows:—
