4 The functions transferred related to Control of Prices Act 1937 (26/1937), which was repealed by Prices Act 1958 (4/1958), s. 8 and sch. 1. This SI has therefore ceased to be in force and should be revoked.
5 The powers and duties transferred related to Milk (Regulation of Supply and Price) Act 1936 (43/1936), which was repealed by Milk (Regulation of Supply) Act 1994 (25/1994), s. 22, subject to savers no relevant here. This SI has therefore ceased to be in force and should be revoked.
6 The functions transferred related to Turf (Use and Development) Act 1936 (23/1936), and they were re-transferred on a number of occasions, most recently by S.I. Nos. 300 of 2002 and 418 of 2011. This SI has therefore is superseded and should be revoked.
7 The functions transferred related to Scrap Iron (Control of Export) Act 1938 (6/1938), which was repealed by Control of Exports (Temporary Provisions) Act, 1956 (1/1956), s. 6 and sch. This SI has therefore ceased to be in force and should be revoked.
8 The functions transferred related to Turf (Use and Development) Act 1936 (23/1936), and they were re-transferred on a number of occasions, most recently by S.I. Nos. 300 of 2002 and 418 of 2011. This SI is therefore superseded and should be revoked.
9 This SI was superseded by S.I. No. 328 of 2002 and should be revoked.
10 None of the titles listed in their Irish forms remains in use. This SI is therefore obsolete and should be revoked.
11 This SI changed the name of the Department to Local Government. It was again changed (to Environment) by S.I. No. 269 of 1977. This SI is therefore obsolete and should be revoked.
12 None of the legislation, functions of which were transferred by this SI, appears to remain in force. This SI is therefore obsolete and should be revoked. (It has not been possible to check the status of S.R.& O. Nos. 385 and 412 of 1941, 503 of 1942 and 101 of 1944 because they are not available on the eISB, but as Emergency Powers Orders presumably made under the Emergency Powers Act 1939 they are now no longer in force or obsolete).
13 Most of the legislation, functions of which were transferred by this SI, appears to be repealed, but not all. For example Public Health (Ireland) Act 1878 (41 & 42 Vict. c. 52) remains in force, and the SI appears to remain in force in relation to it.
14 The functions transferred related to Workmen's Compensation Act 1934 (9/1934), which was repealed by Social Welfare (Occupational Injuries) Act 1966 (16/1966), s. 40, subject to outstanding claims. This SI has therefore ceased to be in force and should be revoked.
15 The functions transferred related to National Health Insurance (Termination of Sanatorium Benefit and Abolition of Insurance Committees) Regulations 1934 (S.R.& O. No. 28 of 1934), which were made under powers in National Health Insurance Acts 1911 to 1929, repealed by Social Welfare Act 1952 (11/1956), s. 66 and sch 5. The 1934 SI appears to have lapsed on repeal of its enabling provisions, and this SI has therefore ceased to be in force and should be revoked.
16 All of the legislation, functions of which were transferred by this SI, appears to be repealed or the functions transferred were re-transferred. Blind Persons Act 1920 (10 & 11 Geo. 5 c. 49) remains in force, though functions in relation to it were re-transferred by Health Act 1970 (1/1970), s. 6. Local Authorities (Officers and Employees) Acts 1926 and 1940 remain in force, and the position of functions in relation to them was set out for ease of reference by Local Government Act 2001, s. 63 and sch. 12, thus superseding the relevant provisions in this SI. Local Government Act 1941 (23/1941), parts II, III and ss. 83 and 84 were repealed by Local Government Act 2001 (37/2001), s. 5(1) and sch. 3 part 1. Functions under Local Government Act 1946 (24/1946), ss. 89-91 were re-transferred by S.I. No. 417 of 1947, and then by S.I. No. 256 of 1949 from Local Government to Health. Local Government (Ireland) Act 1898 (61 & 62 Vict. c. 37), s. 51 was repealed, various subsections at a time. Local Government (Ireland) Act 1902 (2 Edw. 7 c. 38), s. 4 was repealed by Local Government Act 1955 (9/1955), s. 5 and sch. 1. Local Government (Ireland) Act 1871 (34 & 35 Vict. c. 109), s. 12 was repealed by Local Government Reform Act 2014 (1/2014), s. 5(2) and sch. 1 part 2, which also deleted Local Government (Ireland) Act 1898 (61 & 62 Vict. c. 37), s. 63(2). Local Government Act 1946 (24/1946) s. 68(8) remains in force, but functions were retransferred by S.I. Nos. 417 of 1947 and 256 of 1949, and the provisions implementation of which it provides for are now repealed, most recently by Local Government Reform Act 2014 (1/2014), s. 5(2) and sch. 1 part 2 repealing Local Government (Ireland) Act 1902 (2 Edw. 7 c. 38), s. 20. Local Government Act 1941 (23/1941), ss. 70 and 71 were deleted by Local Government Reform Act 2014 (1/2014), s. 5(2) and sch. 1 part 2. Education (Provision of Meals) Acts 1914 to 1930 and School Meals (Gaeltacht) Acts 1930 and 1933 were repealed by Social Welfare (Consolidation) Act 1941, s. 310 and sch. 6 parts 1 and 2. S.R.& O. Nos. 400 of 1941 and 20 of 1945 are not available on the eISB, but as Emergency Powers Orders presumably made under the Emergency Powers Act 1939 they are now no longer in force or obsolete. The provisions of the Public Assistance Act 1939 listed were repealed by Social Welfare (Supplementary Welfare Allowances) Act, 1975 (28/1975), s. 24. S.R.& O. No. 460 of 1941 is not available on the eISB but presumably is no longer in force. Local Government Act 1946 (24/1946) s. 24 was repealed by Local Government (Dublin) Act 1993, s. 4(1) and sch. 1. Local Authorities (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1936 (55/1936) s. 3 was repealed by Local Government Act 2001 (37/2001), s. 5(1) and sch. 3 part 1. Public Assistance Act 1939 (27/1939) ss. 5, 66, 68, 69, 70, 77 and 91 were repealed by Social Welfare (Supplementary Welfare Allowances) Act, 1975 (28/1975), s. 24. Local Government Act 1941 (23/1941), ss. 83(6) and 85 were repealed by Local Government Act 2001 (37/2001), s. 5(1) and sch. 3 part 1, as was Local Government Act 1946 (24/1946), s. 88. This SI is therefore obsolete and should be revoked.
17 Most but not all of the legislation, functions of which were transferred by this SI, appears to be repealed or the functions transferred were re-transferred. Local Authorities (Officers and Employees) Acts 1926 and 1940 remain in force, and the position of functions in relation to them was set out for ease of reference by Local Government Act 2001, s. 63 and sch. 12, superseding this SI. Milk and Dairies Act 1935 (22/1935), s. 12 remains in force and art. 6(3)(b) remains in effect. Local Government Act 1941 (23/1941), parts II, III and ss. 83 and 84 were repealed by Local Government Act 2001 (37/2001), s. 5(1) and sch. 3 part 1. Functions under Local Government Act 1946 (24/1946), ss. 89-91 were re-transferred by S.I. No. 256 of 1949 from Local Government to Health. Local Government (Ireland) Act 1898 (61 & 62 Vict. c. 37), s. 51 was repealed, various subsections at a time. Local Government (Ireland) Act 1902 (2 Edw. 7 c. 38), s. 4 was repealed by Local Government Act 1955 (9/1955), s. 5 and sch. 1. Local Government (Ireland) Act 1871 (34 & 35 Vict. c. 109), s. 12 was repealed by Local Government Reform Act 2014 (1/2014), s. 5(2) and sch. 1 part 2, which also deleted Local Government (Ireland) Act 1898 (61 & 62 Vict. c. 37), s. 63(2). Local Government Act 1946 (24/1946) s. 68(8) remains in force, but the provisions implementation of which it provides for are now repealed, most recently by Local Government Reform Act 2014 (1/2014), s. 5(2) and sch. 1 part 2 repealing Local Government (Ireland) Act 1902 (2 Edw. 7 c. 38), s. 20. Local Government Act 1941 (23/1941), ss. 70 and 71 were deleted by Local Government Reform Act 2014 (1/2014), s. 5(2) and sch. 1 part 2. The transfer of functions in relation to Milk and Dairies Act 1935 (22/1935), ss. 31, 34, 35 and 47 appears to remain in effect, though not in relation to ss. 20, 30 and 32 which are repealed. The construction of Minster for Agriculture in art. 17 appears to remain in effect except in relation to ss. 20, 30 and 32 which are repealed. In relation to the First Schedule Part 1, Slaughter of Animals Act 1935 (45/1935) is repealed and S.R.& O. Nos. 312 of 1941 and 57 of 1942 are not available on the eISB, but being Emergency Orders are probably expired or obsolete. In relation to the First Schedule Part 2, Public Health (Ireland) Act 1878 (41 & 42 Vict. c. 52) and Milk and Dairies Act 1935 (22/1935), ss. 11, 14 and 15 remain in force and the SI remains in force in relation to them. In relation to the Second Schedule, the Acts involved are not specified and the transfer of functions may remain in force. In relation to the the Third Schedule, Milk and Dairies Act 1935 (22/1935) remains in force, s. 51 of that Act was substituted and no longer refers to a Minister; Local Authorities (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1936 (55/1936), s. 3 was repealed, the construction of Local Government Act 1941 (23/1941), s. 83(6) appears to be superseded by S.I. No. 256 of 1949, transferring the function from Local Government to Health; ss. 84 and 85 of that Act were repealed; Local Government Act 1946 (24/1946), s. 88 was repealed, but the SI still appears to have effect in relation to s. 92. In summary, some provisions of this SI remain in effect.
18 This SI transfers functions under the Statistics Acts 1926 and 1946, both of which were repealed by Statistics Act 1993 (21/1993), s. 7(1). This SI is therefore obsolete and should be revoked.
19 Later developments in relation to arts. 5-7 and sch. parts I-III make the transfer of functions provided in these articles obsolete. In relation to art. 5(a) and (b), the Minister's functions under Public Health (Ireland) Act 1878, Local Government Act 1925 (5/1925), in relation to the compulsory acquisition of land by a local authority were transferred to an Bord Pleanála by Planning and Development Act 2000 (30/2000), s. 214. The provisions in paras. (c) and (d) are repealed. In relation to para. (e) and (f), Local Government Act 1941 (23/1941), ss. 83 and 86 are repealed, and the transfer of ministerial functions in Part IV of that Act was superseded by Health Authorities Act 1960 (9/1960), s. 8(3). In relation to the transfer of functions provided by art. 6, Local Government Act 1941 (23/1941), ss. 83 and 84 are repealed, as are Local Government Act 1946 (24/1946), ss. 89-91. In relation to the transfer of power in art. 7, Local Government (Ireland) Act 1898 (61 & 62 Vict. c. 37), s. 51 was repealed, various subsections at a time and Local Government (Ireland) Act 1902 (2 Edw. 7 c. 38), s. 4 was repealed by Local Government Act 1955 (9/1955), s. 5 and sch. 1. Local Government Act 1941 (23/1941), ss. 70 and 71 were deleted by Local Government Reform Act 2014 (1/2014), s. 5(2) and sch. 1 part 2. In relation to art. 8, Local Government (Ireland) Act 1871 (34 & 35 Vict. c. 109), s. 12 was repealed by Local Government Reform Act 2014 (1/2014), s. 5(2) and sch. 1 part 2, which also deleted Local Government (Ireland) Act 1898 (61 & 62 Vict. c. 37), s. 63(2). Local Government Act 1946 (24/1946) s. 68(8) remains in force, but functions were retransferred by S.I. Nos. 417 of 1947 and 256 of 1949, and the provisions implementation of which it provides for are now repealed, most recently by Local Government Reform Act 2014 (1/2014), s. 5(2) and sch. 1 part 2 repealing Local Government (Ireland) Act 1902 (2 Edw. 7 c. 38), s. 20. In relation to the schedule part I, the powers of the minister in relation to Anatomy Act 1832 are superseded by Medical Practitioners Act 2007 (25/2007), s. 106 and in relation to State Lands (Workhouses) Act 1930 (9/1930) by Health Act 1970 (1/1970), s. 6. In relation to schedule part II, each of the provisions listed was repealed. In relation to schedule part III, both of the provisions listed were repealed. This SI is therefore obsolete and should be revoked.
20 This SI transfers functions to the Minister for Health in relation to Pharmacy Act (Ireland) 1875 and Dangerous Drugs Act 1934 (1/1934), both repealed. This SI is therefore obsolete and should be revoked.
21 This SI appears to be superseded by Wheat (Transfer of Ministerial Functions) Order 1961 (S.I. No. 158 of 1961) and the functions transferred appear to be obsolete. It is obsolete and should be revoked.
22 This SI appears to be at least partly superseded by Gaeltacht (Transfer of Departmental Administration and Ministerial Functions) (No. 2) Order 1956 (S.I. No. 304 of 1956) and an internet search found no reference to this organisation since the 1950s. It appears therefore that the functions transferred are likely to be obsolete. In this event the SI should be revoked.

28 The Alginate Industries (Ireland) Limited (Acquisition of Shares) Acts, 1949 and 1954, in respect of which functions were transferred to the Minister for Gaeltacht, were repealed, but this SI appears to remain in force in relation to Housing (Gaeltacht) Acts, 1929 to 1953 and related instruments, and promotion of rural industries, subject to changes of the Department name.

No. 8 of 1980) and most recently by Tourism and Sport (Transfer of Departmental Administration and Ministerial Functions) Order 2011 (S.I. No. 140 of 2011), this SI is obsolete and should be revoked.
