Petroleum: The Petroleum (Carbon Disulphide) Order, 1958

Abstract

The Order in Council now revoked by Article 2 of this Order when originally made applied to bisulphide of carbon the provisions of the Acts repealed and replaced by the Petroleum (Consolidation) Act, 1928, relating to the conveyance of petroleum-spirit by road, and by that Act was continued in force and has the effect of applying to bisulphide of carbon the corresponding provisions of the Act of 1928. Bisulphide of carbon is now known as carbon disulphide, and this Order in replacing the old one uses the new name and applies the provisions of the Act of 1928 as to the labelling of vessels not only when carbon disulphide is conveyed by road but also when it is kept at any place, is sent or conveyed otherwise than by road or is sold or exposed or offered for sale.
