Presidency Towns Insolvency Act, 1909 Complete Act

State: Central

Year: 1909

....."If this Bill be passed into law it will be necessary to repeal the 1848 Act, and this raise a question which deserves consideration. The present Act is an Act of the imperial Parliament and a vesting order made under it vests in the assignee by direct operation all the real and personal estate and effects of the insolvent in whatever part of the King's dominions they may be situate or accrue; and a discharge under the Act has effect in every part of those dominions. The Act is one of those which it is within the competency of the Legislative Council of the Governor-General to repeal, but if it be repealed and an Indian Act be substituted, it follows that these advantages must at least for the most part be abandoned, since an Act of the Indian Legislature cannot operate for this purpose outside the limits of India. In 1886 it was proposed that an Act of the Imperial Parliament should be obtained to give this authority to insolvency proceedings in India, but no such Act has as yet been passed. It is believed, however, that the advantages conferred by the Act of 1848 are of no real value, since experience has shown that in practically every case in which there are assets in both.....

Foreigners Act, 1946 Complete Act

State: Central

Year: 1946

.....AND REASONS "At present the only permanent measures governing foreigners specifically are the Registration of Foreigners Act ,1939andthe Foreigners Act, 1864. The Act of 1939 provides for the making of rules to regulate registration of foreigners and formalities connected therewith, their movement in, or departure from, India. The Act of 1864 provides for the expulsion of foreigners and their apprehension and detention pending removal and for a ban on their entry into India after removal; the rest of the Act which provides for report on arrival, travel under a licence and certain incidental measures can be enforced only on the declaration of an emergency. The powers under this Act have been found to be ineffective and inadequate both during normal times and during an emergency. The needs of the war emergency were met by the enactment of a Foreigners Ordinance in 1939 and the promulgation under it of the Foreigners Order and the Enemy Foreigners Order. Even at that time the need for more satisfactory permanent legislation was recognised but it was decided to postpone consideration of such a measure until after the war. The Ordinance was. therefore, replaced by the Foreigners Act,.....
