a local authority or public body has been authorized before

borrowed, the local authority may, with the precedent consent of the Minister of Finance, borrow such money, or such
amount thereof as has not been borrowed, at such rate of

intents and purposes as if the provisions of section ten of
the Local Bodies' Loans Act, 1913, had been correctly complied with, and that the validity of the proceedings in connection with the said loan shall not be called into question
by reason only of the irregularities or defects aforesaid.
