[10 June 1921]
1921. No. 1022
At the Court at Buckingham Palace, the 10th day of June, 1921.
PRESENT,
The King's Most Excellent Majesty in Council.
Whereas by subsection (1) of Section one of the Census Act,
1920, (a) it is provided that his Majesty may by Order in Council
from time to time direct that a Census shall be taken for Great
Britain, and any Order so made may among other things prescribe
the date of such Census:
And whereas by the Census Order, 1920, (b) the 24th day of
April, 1921, was prescribed as the date of the Census, but by the
Census (Postponement of Date) Order, 1921, (c) for the reasons
therein set forth the Census was postponed until such later date
as might be thereafter determined.
Now, therefore, His Majesty, by and with the advice of His Privy Council, in pursuance of sub-section (1) of Section 1 of the Census Act, 1920, and of all other powers enabling Him in that behalf, is pleased to order, and it is hereby ordered, as follows:—
1. This Order may be cited as the Census Order, 1921, and shall be read as one with the Census Order, 1920, and the Census (Postponement of Date) Order, 1921.
2. Article 2 of the Census Order, 1920, shall be read as though the 19th Day of June, 1921, were therein substituted for the 24th day of April, 1921.
