Merchant Shipping Act, 1958 Complete Act

State: Central

Year: 1958

.....in 1867, 1882andagain in 1893and 1896 but all these attempts failed owing to legal and constitutional difficulties.Two of the principal contributory factors were the then limited powers of the Indian Legislature to legislate regarding shipping and the fact that part of the British Statute law on the subject, including parts of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1894, which is the principal United-Kingdom enactment on the subject, applied to Indian and any Indian enactment had to be in legal harmony with that law. A fresh attempt was made in 1921-22 to codify the Indian law on merchant shipping by the Statute Law Revision Committee, which decided that only consolidation, and not revision should be attempted immediately. The result was the Indian Merchant Shipping Act, 1923, which is now on the Statute Book and which consolidated some 21 existing Indian Acts on the subject. This Act has also been amended from time to time, the two major amendments being those made in 1933 and in 1953 so as to take power to implement the provisions of the international conventions with respect to load lines, 1930, and with respect to safety of life at sea, 1948, respectively, which have been ratified by.....

Public Debt Act, 1944 Complete Act

.....more widely than ordinary negotiable commercial instruments by various classes of investors in addition to the financial and business community. The fact that Government loans were almost entirely in the form of promissory notes meant that the special modifications of the law, effected from time to time to meet practical difficulties only related to Government obligations held in this form, with the result that when the previous legislation was revised in the Act of 1920, a clear distinction was not always drawn between those parts of the law which ought to relate to Government securities as a whole and those which merely related to promissory notes. A striking instance of this is provided by section 13(Act X of 1920) providing for the summary provisional settlement of disputes, which is confined only to promissory notes. Although logically imperfect, this position did not in the past lead to any practical difficulties as the holders of Government loans in the form of stock certificates were comparatively few. As a result of war conditions however, and the efforts of the Reserve Bank as agent of Government in the management of public debt to popularize stock certificate in the.....
