Subsequent developments

Section 20 of the Naval Stores Act 1867 (30 & 31 Vict. c 119) provided that the repeal by this act of sections 1, 2, 4, 5 and 8 of the Embezzlement of Public Stores Act 1697 (9 Will. 3. c. 41)[c], was thereby repealed as far as those sections related to any stores except naval or victualling stores, or other stores belonging to or under the charge or control of the Admiralty, or to Scotland or Ireland, and that to that extent those sections were thereby revived; but that nothing therein contained was to interfere with the operation of any other act of the session 30 & 31 Vict.[2]

The whole act was repealed by section 1(1) of, and the first schedule to, the Statute Law Revision Act 1950 (14 Geo. 6. c. 6).
