IV Governor's Check

Exemption from
preceding Statutes
No regulations in any subsisting Act relative to the preceding Act shall extend
to the said intended National Panopticon Penitentiary-House.
16 12
Regulations
relative to the
formerly intended
Penitentiary House
not to extend to
the present
Art. 12. And whereas the regulations in the Penitentiary
Act of the 19th Year of his present
Majesty are Ch. 74. were calculated for the case where
the persons intrusted in chief with the management
of the therein intended establishment were
to have no interest in the labour of the Prisoners,
And whereas the necessity of the said regulations
is superseded as well partly by the peculiar plan of
construction, intended as abovementioned for the
Panopticon Penitentiary House, and partly by the
strictness of the strength of the controuling powers
to which the said J intended Governor is willing
and desirous to subject himself as aforesaid And whereas
the offer of the said Jeremy Bentham
was conditional, depending upon the want of its
being the pleasure of his Majesty in Parliament /
to exempt the management of such said intended Establishment from the burthen of the said
existing regulations Be it enacted that none of the said /
regulations made for the said formerly intended
Penitentiary House
Identifier: | JB/124/052/001 "JB/" can not be assigned to a declared number type with value 124.
