TRUCK ACT 1896 - SECT 9

Power to exempt from provisions of Act.

9.(1) The Secretary of State, if satisfied that the provisions of this Act are
unnecessary for the protection of the workmen employed in any trade or
business, or in any branch or department of any trade or business, either
generally or within any specified area, may by order under his hand grant an
exemption from those provisions in respect of the persons engaged in that
trade, business, branch or department, either generally or within that area.

(2) The Secretary of State may at any time amend or revoke any such order.

(3) Every order made under this section shall be laid as soon as may be before
both Houses of Parliament, and if either House within the next forty days
after the order has been so laid before that House resolves that the order
ought to be annulled, the order shall, after the date of that resolution, be
of no effect, without prejudice to the validity of anything done in the
meantime under the order or to the making of a new order.[
