The purposes named in the said regulations, shall be deemed to be purposes for which sanitary authorities may borrow money, and the local authorities in England, and the sanitary authorities in Ireland, charged with the carrying out of such regulations, may borrow, and the Public Works Loan Commissioners in England and the Board of Public Works in Ireland may lend money to such authorities, as if such purposes were works for which loans may be granted under the Pubhc Health Act (England), 1875, and the Public Health Act (Ireland), 1878. Such loans may be made forthwith and without any preliminary public notice or inquiry, if it appear to the Local Government Board desirable in order to the prompt and effective execution of such regulations. Amendment of Clause 150 of Public Health Act {Ireland)^ 1878, 3. Whereas by the one hundred and fiftieth section of the Public Health Act (Ireland), 1878, the board of guardians of any union in which regulations for prevention of the spread of formidable epi- demic, endemic, or infectious diseases made by the Local Govern- ment Board are declared to be in force, are the authority appointed to superintend and see to the execution of such regulations, to the exclusion of all other sanitary authorities. And whereas in the event of the outbreak of any formidable epidemic, such exclusion of the urban sanitary authority in cities and large towns might lead to delay and inconvenience. Be it enacted that whenever the Local Government Board, Ireland, shall make any such regulations, the Board may direct the urban sanitary authority within any district in which such regulations shall be declared to be in force, to superintend and see to the exe- cution of such regulations, or any of them, either independently or jointly with the board of guardians of any union within which or within part of which regulations so issued by the Local Government Board are declared to be in force, and thereupon every urban sani- tary authority so directed by the Local Government Board shall have the like powers and authority in every respect as the board of guardians of any union within such district.
