This Act may be cited as the Public Loans (Ireland) Remission Act, 1881. 2.

Account of Advance and Reason for Remission. The money was advanced in order to facilitate the execution of the Irish Tithe Composition Act 4 Geo. 4. c. 99. Advances were made in the case of 2,345 different parishes during the period from 1824 to 1844 for the expenses of the execution of the Act, part of which expenses consisted in the remuneration of the Commissioners appointed under the Act to assess the composition to be paid in the several parishes. One of the Commissioners was appointed in most cases by or on behalf of the tithe-owner, and one by the vestry. The advances were to be repaid by the owners and occupiers of land in five equal yearly instalments, but the sum advanced to pay the Commissioner appointed by the titheowner was to be repaid out of the tithe composition at such time and in such manner as the Lord Lieutenant should direct. No interest was charged on the advances. Repayments commenced in 1826; but, after the tithe disturbances in 1831, and the passing of 2 & 3 Will. 4. c. 119., no further steps were taken for the recovery of the advances. Nil. 900,000 0 0 By the Act 3 & 4 Will. 4. C. 100., the issue of 1,000,000l. was authorised to render unnecessary the collection of tithes and compositions for tithes in Ireland in 1833, and of the arrears of tithes for the two preceding years. 640,000l. was advanced to tithe-owners to be repaid in five equal yearly instalments without interest. The Act 1 & 2 Vict. c. 109. provided for the remission in certain cases of these instalments, and also authorised the application of the instalments which were received, and of a further sum of 260,000l. authorised to be raised, towards indemnifying persons entitled to arrears of compositions for tithes for the years 1834-37. Partly in consequence of the above no instalments in respect of the 640,000l. reached the Consolidated Fund, and no part of the 260,000l. has ever been repaid, leaving a total of 900,000l. unpaid. This 900,000l. was raised by Exchequer Bills which, together with the sum of 31,8627. 10s. for interest thereon, were converted under 2 & 3 Vict. c. 97. s. 17. into 1,018,4487. 1s. 1d. capital stock. 27 & 28 Vict. c. 53. 42 & 43 Vict. c. 49.

W An Act to amend the Summary Procedure Act, 1864. cases: And whereas by an Act passed in the Parliament held in the seventh year of King William the Fourth and the first year of Her present Majesty, chapter forty-one, intituled "An Act for the more "effectual recovery of small debts in the sheriff courts and for regulating the establishment of circuit courts for the trial of small "debt causes by the sheriffs in Scotland," herein-after called the Small Debt Act, 1837, provision was made for the recovery of statutory penalties by way of action in the sheriff court, and a scale of fees was fixed for such prosecutions : And whereas by the Summary Procedure Act, 1864, further provision was made for the trial of offences punishable on summary conviction, and for the summary recovery of penalties: And whereas by the Summary Jurisdiction Act, 1879, additional powers were conferred upon courts of summary jurisdiction in England to mitigate and modify punishments in summary proceedings: And whereas it is expedient to amend the Summary Procedure Act, 1864, to extend certain of the provisions of the Summary Jurisdiction Act, 1879, to Scotland, and also to regulate the costs and expenses of summary procedure in Scotland: Be it enacted by the Queen's most Excellent Majesty, by and with the advice and consent of the Lords Spiritual and Temporal, and Commons, in this present Parliament assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows: 1. This Act may be cited as the Summary Jurisdiction (Scotland) Act, 1881, and shall be construed as one with the Summary Procedure Act, 1864, so far as consistent with the tenour of these Acts respectively, and these Acts may be cited together as the Summary Jurisdiction (Scotland) Acts, 1864 and 1881, and shall apply to Scotland only. 2. This Act shall commence on the first day of January one thousand eight hundred and eighty-two. 3. The provisions of the Summary Jurisdiction (Scotland) Acts, 1864 and 1881, herein-after called the Summary Jurisdiction Acts, shall apply to all summary proceedings as enumerated and described in the third section of the Summary Procedure Act, 1864, and to all proceedings of the like nature which by any future Act are directed or authorised to be taken summarily, or under the provisions of the Summary Jurisdiction Acts, and the thirty-second section of the Summary Procedure Act, 1864, is hereby repealed: And it shall not be necessary in any case to keep a record of the evidence, except so far as may be required by the Act conferring jurisdiction in the matter of the prosecution, or by the sixth section |
