Amends, tender of, was by many particular statutes made a defence in an action for a wrong, especially in cases where the wrong had been done by some public authority or person acting in pursuance of an (English) Act of Parliament, as the Highway Act, 1835 (see s. 105), or the (English) Larceny Act, 1861 (see s. 113), in apprehending, for instance, a person found committing an offence against that Act. These are repealed by the (English) Public Authorities Protection Act, 1893, which provides, amongst other things, for the pleading of tender of amends, and for taxation of the defendant's costs between solicitor and client in event of the plaintiff not recovering more than the sum tendered, etc. As to tender upon distress (q.v.), whether before or after impounding but before sale, see Johnson v. Upham, (1859) 2 E&E 250. For wrongful distress, see (English) Distress for Rent Act, 1737, and for trespass on land with disclaimer of title, (English) Limitation Act, 1623 (21 Jac. 1, c. 16), s...

Building Acts (English). The Acts commonly so called apply only to the metropolis, and have been called the Metropolitan Building Acts. The Metropolitan Building Acts, 1855 and 1862 (which were public general Acts), and their amending enactments wee repealed and re-enacted with many amendments by the local and personal London Building Act, 1894 (57 & 58 Vict. c. ccxiii.), and its amending Acts of 1898 and 1905. These in their turn are repealed by the London Building Act, 1930 (20 & 21 Geo. 5, c. clviii.). see LONDON BUILDING ACT.The old Building Act, par excellence, the (English) Fires Prevention (Metropolis) Act, 1774 (14 Geo. 3, c. 78), although otherwise partial and repealed, has two ss., 83 and 86, which are still in force and (it is submitted) of universal application.

Declaration of trust. To prevent the inconvenience which arose from parol declarations and secret transfers of uses, s. 53 of the (English) Law of Property Act, 1925, reproducing and amending the (English) Statute of Frauds (29 Car. 2, c. 3), ss. 7, 8 and 9, requires that a declaration of trust respecting any land or any interest therein must be manifested and proved by some writing signed by some person who is able to declare such trust, or by his will, and (1) a disposition of an equitable interest or trust, subsisting at the time of the disposition, must be in writing signed by the person disposing of the same or by his agent thereunto lawfully authorized in writing or by will; (2) this section does not affect the creation of resulting, implied or constructive trusts.It appears that this statute does not extend to the declaration or creation of trusts of mere personalty. But in practice, a parol declaration should never be relied on, for the intention to declare a trust should be ir...
