Extension of power to make rules for clerks.
|
6. The power of making general rules conferred upon the Lord Lieutenant by the twenty-ninth section of the principal Act shall be construed and extended so as to authorise the making from time to time of regulations defining the duties of clerks of petty sessions, and the mode of performing the same; and the Lord Lieutenant may, if he shall think fit, provide for the making of allowances and granting remuneration to petty sessions clerks for any duties imposed on them by any such rules, to be paid out of the funds at the disposal of the Lord Lieutenant for the purposes of the principal Act; and the Lord Lieutenant may, if he shall think fit, by general rules, or by order in each case, direct how the salary of any petty sessions clerk suspended from his office shall be disposed of; and may, if he shall think fit, provide for the payment of remuneration to any person appointed as a substitute for such suspended clerk, either out of the salary of such suspended clerk, or out of the funds at the disposal of the Lord Lieutenant for the purposes of the principal Act.
