It is true that the reference in the definition by which clerical and other establish-ments of factories are included is to the Factories Act of 1934, but by virtue of s. 8 of the General Clauses (1987 10 of 1897), it must be construed as a reference to the provisions of the Factories Act LXIII of 1948 which repealed the Factories Act of 1934 and re-enacted it.

Equitable estates and interests
Equitable estates and interests, Rights relating to property of which the legal ownership is vested in another person, or in the equitable owner himself in another capacity.
