(2) If and whenever an Order is made by the Minister under this Act extending any such period of time as aforesaid, the Special Act by which such period of time was limited shall have effect as if the extended period of time named in such Order were substituted in such Special Act for the period of time actually mentioned therein. Opportunity to be given to make representations. 2.—Before making an Order under this Act the Minister shall give all persons interested in the subject matter of such Order reasonable opportunity of making representations to him in relation thereto and for that purpose the Local Authority applying for such Order shall publish and give such notices in such newspapers and places and to such persons in such form and manner and at such times as the Minister shall direct. Orders to be laid before the Oireachtas. 3.—Every Order made by the Minister under this Act shall be laid before each House of the Oireachtas forthwith and unless and until a resolution annulling such Order is passed by each House of the Oireachtas within the next subsequent twenty-one days on which either House has sat such Order shall have effect as if enacted in this Act, but no such resolution shall operate to prejudice the validity of anything previously done under such Order. Definitions. 4.—In this Act the expression “the Minister” means the Minister for Local Government; the expression “Special Act” means and includes any local or personal Act of the Parliament of the late United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and any Act of the Parliament aforesaid confirming a Provisional Order made by the Local Government Board for Ireland, and also means and includes any Public or General Act of the Parliament aforesaid which regulates the exercise of the powers or any of the powers conferred by any such local or personal Act or Act confirming a Provisional Order as aforesaid whether such Public or General Act is or is not incorporated in such local or personal Act or Act confirming a Provisional Order; the expression “Local Authority” means and includes a County Council, a Council of a County Borough, Urban District Council, Rural District Council and the Commissioners of a Town.
