Amendment No. 1 to the amendment is: After section 3(a), to insert the following: “(b) in section 19 (1) (b), by the deletion of “, by any overt act,” and the substitution of “, by any overt and specified act,”,” Section 19(1)(b) of the 1956 Act provides that the Minister may revoke a certainty of naturalisation if satisfied "the person to whom it was granted has, by any overt act, shown himself to have failed in his duty of fidelity to the nation and loyalty to the State". The second amendment to the amendment would amend section 19(1) of the 1956 Act by deleting the ground for revocation of citizenship provided for in paragraph (e) of the subsection.
