Home Dictionary Name: sec 5508 Page: 8Takes or entices any guardian of such minor
Takes or entices any guardian of such minor, the words 'takes or entices any minor out of the keeping of the lawful guardian of such minor' ins. 361, are significant. The use of the word 'Keeping' in the context connotes the idea of charge, protection, maintenance and control: further the guardian's charge and control appears to be compatible with the independence of action and movement in the minor, the guardian's protection and control of the minor being available, whenever necessity arises. On plain reading of this section the consent of the minor who is taken or enticed is wholly immaterial: it is only the guardian's consent which takes the case out of its purview. Nor is it necessary that the taking or enticing must be shown to have been by means of force or fraud. Persuasion by the accused person which creates willingness on the part of the minor to be taken out of the keeping of the lawful guardian would be sufficient to attract the section, State of Haryana v. Raja Ram, AIR 197...

Public health
Public health. The first (English) Public Health Act was passed in 1848 (11 & 12 Vict. c. 63); this was an adoptive Act not applying to London, and forms the foundation of modern sanitary legislation. It was followed by some twenty nine amending Acts which were repealed and consolidated by the Public Health Act, 1875 (the Local Government Act, 1933 (23 & 24 Geo. 5, c. 51), repeals certain sections of this Act, re-enacting them with amendments), which thus formed a sanitary code for England outside the metropolis. This Act has been since amended and extended by subsequent statutes. The latest is the Public Health Act, 1936 (26 Geo. 5 and 1 Edw. 8, c. 49), which, as from 1st October, 1937, consolidates many of the provisions of earlier legislation, without, however, repealing parts of the Public Health Acts of 1875, 1890, 1907 and 1925. The Act repeals and replaces among other enact-ments and as from various dates respectively provided by the Act: the whole of the Baths and Wash-houses A...
