7Amendment of House to House Collections Act, 1939, in relation to war charities1

A police authority may refuse to grant a licence authorising a person to promote a collection as defined by the House to House Collections Act, 1939, if the authority is satisfied that the collection is for a war charity which is not for the time being registered or exempted from registration under this Act.

2

If the chief officer of police for the police area comprising a locality in which any such collection is being or is proposed to be made, is satisfied that it is on behalf of a war charity for the time being exempted from registration under this Act, he may grant to the person who appears to him to be principally concerned in the promotion of the collection a certificate to that effect, and any such certificate shall have the like effect as a certificate granted under subsection (4) of section one of the House to House Collections Act, 1939.
