Friendly Societies may require.

(2) Section sixteen of the Trade Union Act, 1871, shall apply to every trade
union carrying on business in Northern Ireland but having its principal office

the Registrar of Friendly Societies, in relation to the business carried on in
Northern Ireland, such particulars of the receipts and expenditure of the
trade union, and other information, as the Registrar of Friendly Societies may
require; and until compliance has been effected on behalf of such trade union
with all requirements of the Trade Union Acts, 1871 to 1917, or this Act which
are applicable to such trade union, it shall not be entitled in Northern
Ireland to any of the privileges of those Acts.
