all such shops within the said combined district, save and

Amendment Act, 1927; and, further, that subsection (4)
of section 35 of the Shops and Offices Act, 1921–22, shall
not apply to any chemist's shop which is within two miles
and a half of the exempted shop while medicines and surgical
appliances are obtainable from the exempted shop:
And whereas the Minister of Labour is satisfied that the
signatures to such requisition represent a majority of the
occupiers of all the said shops within the said combined

reasonable cost in the profits of the business carried on by
the exempted shop:
Now, therefore, in pursuance of sections 32 and 35 of the
Shops and Offices Act, 1921–22, and in pursuance of section

NOTE.—Pursuant to section 35 (4) of the Shops and Offices
Act, 1921–22, a chemist in the combined district whose shop

that are urgently required, provided that the shop is opened
for such purpose only and is closed immediately the sale
is effected, and that the door of the shop is kept locked except
for the admission and exit of the customer.
