West Indies Act 1967

1 (1) The provisions of this Schedule shall have effect in relation to any associated state (in this Schedule referred to as " the state ") with respect to the making by the legislature of the state (in this Schedule referred to as " the legislature ") of any such law as is mentioned in section 10(1) of this Act.

(2) In this Schedule " the Bill" means the Bill introduced in the legislature for the making of that law; any reference to the second reading of the Bill in the legislature, or in a House of the legislature, is a reference to the stage of the Bill in the legislature, or in that House, as the case may be, which, whether called second reading or by any other name, is (disregarding any minor differences) analogous to the second reading of a Bill in the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom; and any reference to the third reading of the Bill shall be construed in a corresponding way.

(3) In this Schedule " referendum " means a referendum on which all persons who, at the time when the referendum is held, would be entitled to vote at an election of members of the legislature (or, if the legislature consists of two Houses, would be entitled to vote at an election of members of the lower House), but no other persons, will be entitled to vote.
