(1)If, after receiving representations from the Corporation, the Secretary of State considers that a scheme established under section 37 of the M1Coal Industry Nationalisation Act 1946 (provisions as to superannuation etc. rights) does not provide for participation in any function conferred under the scheme by any organisation which appears to him to represent a substantial proportion of the members of the scheme, the Secretary of State may by order make such amendments of the scheme as he considers appropriate to secure such participation by that organisation.
(2)Before making an order amending a scheme under this section the Secretary of State shall consult the Corporation and any organisation which appears to him to represent a substantial proportion of the members of the scheme (other than any organisation representing members who are also represented by another organisation which he has consulted).

(a)such consequential and supplementary amendments of the scheme; and
(b)without prejudice to paragraph (a) above, such amendments of any provisions in the scheme relating to the quorum necessary for the making of decisions relating to the scheme,
as the Secretary of State considers appropiate.
(7)The fact that a provision of a scheme has been added or amended by an order under this section shall not preclude its subsequent alteration or deletion in accordance with the scheme.
(8)The power to make an order under this section shall be exercisable by statutory instrument and an instrument containing such an order shall be subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament.
(9)The power to make an order under this section may only be exercised once as respects any scheme unless it is exercised—
