[blocks in formation]

Whereas by the Supreme Court of Judicature (Ireland) Act, 1887, it is amongst other things enacted that the Lord Lieutenant may at any time after the framing of the said Act, by Order in Council, direct the fusion and amalgamation of the Common Pleas Division with the Queen's Bench Division of the High Court, and may by said Order give all such further directions as may be necessary or proper for the aforesaid purpose; but no such Order in Council shall come into operation until the same shall have been laid before each House of Parliament for thirty days on which that House shall have sat, nor if within such period of thirty days an address be presented to Her Majesty, by either House of Parliament, praying that the Order may not come into operation; and any such Order in respect whereof no such address shall have been presented to Her Majesty, shall, from and after the expiration of such period of thirty days be of the same force and effect as if it had been expressly enacted in the said Act:

And whereas it seems unto Us fit and proper, by and with the advice of Her Majesty's Privy Council in Ireland, that the Common Pleas Division should be fused and amalgamated with the Queen's Bench Division of the said High Court.

Now, therefore We, the Lords Justices-General and General Governors of Ireland, by and with the advice aforesaid, in

50 & 51 Vict. c. 6.

exercise of the power conferred upon Us by the said Act, and of every other power enabling Us in this behalf, do order and direct, and it is hereby ordered and directed as follows:-`

That the Common Pleas Division of Her Majesty's High Court of Justice in Ireland be fused and amalgamated with the Queen's Bench Division of the said High Court in one Division, to be called the Queen's Bench Division, under the presidency of the Lord Chief Justice of Ireland.

And for the purpose of carrying into effect the fusion and amalgamation of the said Divisions in manner aforesaid, it is hereby further ordered:

That all causes and matters which, at the time when this Order shall, pursuant to the Supreme Court of Judicature (Ireland) Act, 1887,* take effect, may be pending in either of the two Divisions to be so fused and amalgamated, be transferred to the Queen's Bench Division to be so formed as aforesaid, and that all proceedings of every kind which may be then pending in any such causes or matters be continued carried on, and completed in the Queen's Bench Division to be so formed as aforesaid, in the same manner in all respects as they would have been in the Division to which they were previously assigned if the same had not been fused or amalgamated with such other Division as aforesaid.

That all causes, matters, and other proccedings which, by or under the Supreme Court of Judicature Act (Ireland), 1877,† or any Act amending the same, or any Rule or Order made pursuant thereto, have been or are assigned to the Common Pleas Division and the Queen's Bench Division, respectively, of the said High Court, be, from and after the time when this Order, pursuant to the said Supreme Court of Judicature (Ireland) Act, 1887,* shall take effect, assigned to the Queen's Bench Division to be so formed, as aforesaid.

That the Judges to be placed on the rota for the trial of election petitions in Ireland in each year, under the provisions of the Parliamentary Elections Act, 1868, or any Act amending the same, shall, from and after the time when this Order shall take effect, be selected out of the Judges of the Queen's Bench Division, to be so formed as aforesaid, and the Exchequer Division, in such manner as may be provided by any Rules of Court to be made for that purpose; and in the meantime and subject thereto, shall be selected out of the Judges of the Queen's Bench Division, to be so formed as aforesaid, and Exchequer Division of the said High Court, by the Judges of such Divisions respectively, two out of the Queen's Bench Division and one out of the Exchequer Division,
