3rd January, 1929.

J. B. NEWILL,

Harbour Master, &c.

((

'Instructions have been received by Dr. E. R. Pelikan, United States Public Health Surgeon attached to this Consulate General, to enforce immediately as regards passengers to the United States and Honolulu, the provisions of paragraph 108 of the United States Quarantine Laws and Regulations, which states as follows:-

"Passengers and crew coming from districts where small-pox prevails in epidemic form, or who have been exposed to small-pox, shall be vacci- nated before embarkation, unless they show satisfactory evidence of having acquired immunity to small-pox by previous attack, or successful vaccination within one year, and their baggage inspected and, if neces- sary, disinfected".

   In conformity with these instructions, passengers will be required to show such evidence of recent successful vaccination, be vaccinated before departure, or agree to vaccination by the ship's surgeon en route to the United States.

   It should be pointed out that whether arriving at a port in the United States direct from Hong Kong or via some foreign port, passengers from Hong Kong will be required to show evidence of such vaccination before entry into the United States will be permitted, and Quarantine Officers at the ports of entry have been so advised.

   This instruction is in addition to the previous Circular letter No. 7 of the United States Public Health Surgeon at Hong Kong dated December 10th, 1928, and applying the same provisions to the Philippine Islands."

ments as to intestates estates.

4.-(1) Any sum of money other than the balance of an intestate estate and other than a sum of money in the Supreme Court, and any balance of an intestate estate administered by the Official Administrator under section 19 of the Probates Ordinance, 1897, which, after the com- mencement of this Ordinance, may for any cause he unclaimed in the Treasury or in the hands of any officer of the Government may, on the expiration of five years from the date of payment of such sum into the Treasury, or receipt thereof by such officer of the Government, be transferred to the general revenue of the Colony.

(2) Every transfer of any sum of money thus made to the general revenue of the Colony shall be by order of the Governer under the hand of the Colonial Secretary,

(3) Every order thus made shall state the particulars of the sum transferred and shall contain an intimation that the transfer is subject to the provisions contained in this Ordinance as to refunds.

(4) Every such order shall be published in the Gazette.

5. Where administration has been granted, either before or after the commencement of this Ordinance, to the Official Administrator in respect of the estate of any person who has died intestate, and where a balance from such estate remains in the hands of the Official Adminis- trator and the next of kin of the deceased are not known to him, the Official Administrator shall, as soon as may be after the commencement of this Ordinance or after such grant, cause advertisements to be published in the Colony and also, if in his opinion it is desirable, in any place where it appears to him probable that persons entitled to share in the residue of the estate may be found, to the effect that, if no claim is made within five years from the date of the first publication of such advertisement in the Colony, the balance remaining from the estate of such deceased person will be transferred to the general revenue

(a) where advertisement has already been made before the commencement of this Ordinance in accor:}- ance with the law in force at the time of such advertisement ;

Where any unclaimed balance paid into the Treasury Interest on or into the account of the Government under the provisions certain of section 6 amounts to one hundred dollars or upwards, unclaimed the same shall bear interest at the like rate as shall for the time being be allowed by the Treasurer in respect of smus deposited with him bearing interest: Provided that no interest shall be allowed on any such unclaimed balance after the transfer of such unclaimed balance ro the general revenue.

Repeat of Ordinance

No. 2 of 1897, s. 25.

15. Section 25 of the Probates Ordinance, 1897, is repealed.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The Unclaimed Balances Ordinance, 1885, Ordinance No. 1 of 1885, provides for the transfer to the general revenue of the Colony of the following :

(a) All sums of money, which, at the commencement of the Ordinance, had remained unclaimed in the Treasury for at least five years.

(b) All sums of money, other than balances of intestates estates, which after the commencement of the Ordinance remain unclaimed in the Treasury for at least five years.

(e) Under certain conditions, the balances of intes- tates estates administered by the Official Admi- nistrator.

(d) Under certain conditions, sums of money, other than balances of intestates estates, which remain unclaimed in the Supreme Court for at least five years.

2. To enable sums under class (c), the balances of intestates estates, to be transferred, certain advertisements are nccessary, except where the funds of the estate are less than $20 in value, and these advertisements have to state that the funds remaining from the estate will be transferred to the general revenue if no claim is made within five years from the death of the deceased. No provision is made to mect cases in which the necessary advertisements are not made, or in which administration is not obtained, within five years from the death of the intestate. Such cases have occurred, and there would appear to be no machinery whereby due advertisement can now be made, so that the money, if unclaimed, may be transferred to the general revenue of the Colony,

3. Further, no provision is made for the transfer to the general revenue of sums which remain unclaimed in the hands of some officer other than the Treasurer.

4. The object of the present Ordinance is to meet these points.

5. Section 2 is inserted in order to make it quite clear that the Official Administrator, Official Receiver and Official Trustee are officers of the Government for the purposes of this Ordinance, though they deal with non- Government money.

¡

117

6. Section 3 provides that all sums of money which, for a period of at least five years, have remained unclaimed in the Treasury, or in the hands of any officer of the Govern- ment, shall be at once transferred to the general revenue of the Colony.

7. Section 4 provides for the transfer to the general revenue of future sums which remain so unclaimed, other than (2) the balances of intestates estates and (2) sums of money in the Supreme Court. These two classes of unclaimed money are dealt with in special ways, balances of intestates estates being dealt with by sections 5, 6 and 7, and sums of money in the Supreme Court being dealt with by section 8. In both these cases the procedure is more elaborate than under section 4. One class of balances of intestates estates is reserved for the simpler procedure of section 4, i.e., balances of intestates estates administered by the Official Administrator under section 19 of the Probates Ordinance, 1897. That section applies only to estates which do not exceed $250 in value. The transfer under section 4 will be made by the Governor under the hand of the Colonial Secretary. The order and any conditions attached thereto will be published in the Gazette.

8. Section 5 provides that where administration is granted to the Official Administrator in respect of the estate of any person who has died intestate, and where a balance from such estate remains in the hands of the Official Administrator and the next of kin of the deceased are not known to him, he shall cause advertisements to be published to the effect that if no claim is made within five years from the date of the first publication of such advertisements in the Colony the balance remaining from the estate in question will be transferred to the general revenue of the Colony, subject to the provisions of the Ordinance. The advertisement has to be pubished in the Colony, and also in any place where it appears pro- bable that persons entitled to sharing in the residue may he found, if the Official Administrator considers that such further advertisement is desirable. These provisions are also applied to grants made before the commencement of this Ordinance, but it is provided that advertisement under this Ordinance will not be necessary in any case where adver- tisement had already been made before the commencement of the Ordinance in accordance with the law in force at the time of such advertisement. It is also provided that no advertisement will be necessary under the Ordinance where the net value of any estate remaining unadminister- ed at the commencement of this Ordinance is less than $100 or where the net value of any future estate is less than $100. Section 4 of the present Ordinance, No. 1 of 1885, requires advertisement "in the mother country of the deceased", a curious phrase. Section 5 of the new Ordi- nance requires instead that advertisement be made, if desirable, in the place or places where it is most likely to be effective.

9. Section 6 directs the Official Administrator to pay any unclaimed balance of an intestate estate either into the Treasury or under the direction of the Treasurer into an account of the Government at a named bank. The Governor has power to direct that any such sum be trans- ferred to the general revenue of the Colony, but in the case of a balance amounting to $100 or upwards this power can only be exercised on production of a certificate by the Official Administrator that the advertisements required have been published and that five years have elapsed since such advertisements and that no further claim can reasonably be expected.

10. Section 7 provides that interest shall run on any unclaimed balances paid into the Treasury under the provisions of section 6. The interest will cease on trans- fer to the general revenue.

No interest will run on

amounts under $100.

118

11. Provision is made by section 8 for the transfer to general revenue of unclaimed balances, other than those of intestates estates, remaining in the Supreme Court for five years or longer, and the Court is empowered to require notice to such parties as it may think fit.

12. Section 9 provides that every transfer to the general revenue under the provisions of this Ordinance shall be subject to the provisions of the Ordinance as regards refunds.

13. Section 10 provides that any claimant to any money transferred to the general revenue under the new Ordin- ance, or under the Unclaimed Balances Ordinance, 1885, may prosecute his claim by a petition to the Supreme Court, but it is laid down that no such petition shall be presented except within the same time and subject to the Same rules of law and equity in and subject to which an action for the like purpose might be brought against a subject. This limitation of time and this exclusion of merely moral claims are based on the provisions of section 3 of the Intestates Estates Act, 1884, 47 & 48 Viet. c. 71.

14. A further safeguar I is provided by section 11, which empowers the Governor in Council to entertain any moral laim to any sum of money which may have been trans- ferred to the general revenue under this Ordinance or the old Ordinance.

15. Section 12 makes any payment under this Ordinauce a charge on the general revenue.

16. Section 80 of the Bankruptcy Ordinance, 1891, lays down the procedure to be followed with regard to unclaimed dividends and funds in bankruptcy proceedings. Such unclaimed amounts are paid to the Registrar of the Supreme Court, who has to hold them for a period of five years. During that time he has authority to pay out any amount to any person who satisfies him of his title to such amount. Sub-section (4) of section 80 of the Bankruptcy Ordinance directs that at the end of this period of five years the Registrar is to pay any unclaimed money to the Treasurer for the use of the Colony, and it also provides that all claims thereon shall be thenceforth barred. It is considered desirable to leave this procedure untouched, and accordingly section 12 provides that nothing in the present Ordinance is to affect the provisions of the Bank- ruptcy Ordinance with reference to unclaimed dividends and funds in bankruptcy proceedings. The section refers to the Bankruptcy Ordinance generally, and not to section 80 because it is probable that the present Bankruptcy Ordinance will soon be replaced by an amending and con- solidating Ordinance, and it is not possible at present to say how or where the special provisions with regard to unclaimed dividends and funds will appear. The reference to the Bankruptcy Ordinance, 1891, will, by virtue of section 14 of Ordinance No. 31 of 1911, be construed as a reference to the new Bankruptcy Ordinance when it becomes law.

17. Section 13 repeals the Unclaimed Balances Ordin-

1885.

ance,

18. Section 14 repeals section 25 of the Probates Ordinance, 1897. That section lays down that the provisions of the Unclaimed Balances Ordinance, 1885, in relation to unclaimed balances of the estates of persons dying intestate shall mutatis mutandis apply to moneys received or taken possession of by the Official Adminis- trator under section 14 or section 19 of the Probates Ordinance, with a certain proviso. There are several objections to this section. A mutatis mutandis clause is to be avoided if possible because there is sometimes doubt as to what should be changed and as to how it should be

=

changed. Again section 14 of the Probates Ordinance gives the Official Administrator power to take possession of all kinds of movable property. Section 25 makes Ordinance No. 1 of 1885 apply only to moneys actually taken possession of under that section 14. and makes provision for no other property taken possession of under that section or for the proceeds of such property. Similarly, section 25 of the Probates Ordinance makes Ordinance No. 1 of 1885 apply only to moneys actually taken possession of under section 19, and does not make it apply to the balance of the estate when the estate has been realised and the liabilities paid. Section 14 of this Ordinance therefore repeals section 25 of the Probates Ordinance. Words have been inserted in section of this Ordinance to bring the balances of small intestates estates administered under section 19 of the Probates Ordinance within the scope of section 4 of this Ordinance. There is no need to make any similar provision with regard to section 14 of the Probates Ordinance. That section merely gives the Official Administrator power to take possession of the movable property of a deceased person and to provide for its safe custody until probates or administration is granted. If the whole value of any such estate does not exceed $250 the Official Administrator can alminister it under section 19 of the Probates Ordinance.

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Bankruptcy Amendment Ordinance, 1929.

2. Section 27 of the Bankruptcy Ordinance, 1891, is amended as follows :-

(a) by the insertion of the following words imme- diately after the word court in the third line of sub-section (3):-

"shall take into consideration a report of the Official Receiver as to the bankrupt's con- duct and affairs (including a report as to the bankrupt's conduct during the pro- ceedings under his bankruptey), and,"

Objects and Reasons.

This short bill is to introduce two provisions of the English bankruptcy law which do not appear in the Hong Kong Bankruptcy Ordinance, No. 7 of 1891, though they did appear in the English Act on which that Ordinance was founded, i.e., the Bankruptcy Act, 1890, 53 & 54 Vict., c. 71. These two provisions appear also in the present English Bankruptcy Act, 1914, 4 & 5 Geo. 5, c. 59. They are (a) a provision that when a bankrupt comes up for his discharge the court shall take into consideration a report of the Official Receiver on the bankrupt's conduct and affairs, including his conduct during the bankruptcy proceedings, and (b) a provision that the Official Receiver's report shall be prima facie evidence of the statements therein con- tained. The amendments are made applicable to pend- ing bankruptcies.

A BILL

INTITULED

[No. 5-14.2.29.-1.]

An Ordinance to amend the Supreme Court

Ordinance, 1873.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hong Kong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Supreme Short title. Court Amendment Ordinance, 1929.

of Ordinance

2. Section 6 of the Supreme Court Ordinance, 1873, Amendment is amended by the addition of the following proviso at No. 3 of the end thereof :-

"Provided that the practice with regard to writs of certiorari, habeas corpus and manda- mus shall be the practice from time to time for the time being in force in England."

1873, s. 6.

3. Sub-sections (2) and (3) of section 9 of the Amendment Supreme Court Ordinance, 1873, are amended by the of Ordinance substitution in each case of the words-

66

save in the case of a judge appointed by the Governor under the provisions of section 10 of this Ordinance or under the provisions of section 5 (3) of the Full Court Ordinance, 1912"

for the words-

"save as is provided in section 5 (3) of the Full Court Ordinance, 1912"

No. 3 of 1873, s. 9.

4. Section 10 of the Supreme Court Ordinance, Amendment 1873, is amended by the addition of the following sub- section at the end thereof :"-

(3) If in any other case the Governor for any reason considers it desirable that a tem- porary judge should be appointed in addition to the judges in the permanent service of the Colony, it shall be lawful for him tempor- arily to appoint a fit and proper person to be a judge, and to terminate any such appoint- ment as and when he shall think it desirable.

of Ordinance

No. 3 of 1873, s. 10.

Objects and Reasons

1. At present the power to appoint temporarily a judge of the Supreme Court is confined to the follow- ing cases :-

(a) Where the office of a judge has become vacant by death or otherwise: Ordinance No. 3 of 1873, s. 10 (1).

(b) In case of the temporary illness or absence of a judge Ordinance No. 3 of 1873, s. 10 (2).

(c) For the purposes of the Full Court Ordinance,

1912: Ordinance No. 27 of 1912, s. 5 (3).

122

There is no express power to appoint a judge to relieve from or in his judicial duties a judge who may be engaged at the time in other public work, or to appoint an additional judge for the purpose of deal- ing with a pressure of judicial work. The chief object of this bill is to give the Governor power to appoint a temporary judge in any case in which he considers it desirable for any reason. This is effected by clause 4

of this bill.

2. Sub-section (2) of section 9 of the principal Ordinance provides that, "save as is provided in section 5 (3) of the Full Court Ordinance, 1912", every judge shall be appointed by Letters Patent under the public seal of the Governor, in accordance with such instructions as he may receive through a Secretary of State. Sub-section (3) of the same section pro- vides, subject to the same saving, that the judges shall hold office during His Majesty's pleasure. The obvious intention of the two savings is that a person appointed temporarily to sit as judge in the Full Court (a) need not be appointed in the formal manner in which per- manent judges are appointed, and (b) shall cease tɔ hold office when the necessity for his appointment ceases. Clause 2 of this bill extends these two exemp- tions to all temporary judges. The wording of the saving is slightly altered because neither of the sections referred to in it makes any express provision for either exemption.

3. Clause 2 of the bill deals with a matter which has long been awaiting a convenient opportunity. Section 6 of the Supreme Court Ordinance, 1873, provides in effect "so much of the practice of the English Courts as existed on the 5th April, 1843, shall be in force in the Colony", except so far as the said practice may have been modified by local legislation. The former English practice had been so modified in the following branches of the law :-

(a) Civil proceedings generally, exclusive of --

(1) matters testamentary,

(2) bankruptcy,

(3) Admiralty, and

(4) companies.

This is under the Code of Civil Procedure:

Ordinance No. 3 of 1901, s. 3.

(b) Probate jurisdiction :

1897, ss. 45, 74 and 75.

Ordinance No. 2 of

() Bankruptcy: Ordinance No. 7 of 1891. (d) Admiralty: Ordinance No. 6 of 1896. (e) Companies: Ordinance No. 58 of 1911. (ƒ) The practice of "the Supreme Court acting in the exercise of its criminal jurisdiction": Ordinance No. 9 of 1899.

(g) Magistrates appeals: Ordinance No. 3 of

1890.

(h) Summary Court appeals: Ordinance No. 4

of 1873.

4. It would seem that all the ground of the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court is covered by local legislation with the exception of such Crown Office matters as are not instances of the exercise by the Supreme Court of its criminal jurisdiction. Such matters include habeas corpus, mandamus, and perhaps some writs of certiorari. The only reference to the Crown Office is in section 4 of Ordinance No. 9 of 1899, and that does not help in any way on the present point.

+

i

123

5. If the practice in these Crown Office matters is not provided for by local legislation the position is that we are thrown back on the practice of the 5th April, 1843, which is a most inconvenient state of affairs. Accordingly, clause 2 of this bill provides that the practice with regard to writs of certiorari, habeas corpus and mandamus shall be the practice. from time to time for the time being in force in England. It is unnecessary to provide for any pending matters because there are none of any of these three classes at the moment.

If the practice in these Crown Office matters is not provided for by local legislation the position is that we are thrown back on the practice of the 5th April, 1843, which is a most inconvenient state of affairs.

It is unnecessary to provide for any pending matters because there are none of any of these three classes at the moment.

C.S.O.

[No. 5-14.2.29.-1.]

A BILL

INTITULED

Short title.

Amendment

An Ordinance to amend the Supreme Court

Ordinance, 1873.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hong Kong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Supreme Court Amendment Ordinance, 1929.

2. Section 6 of the Supreme Court Ordinance, 1873, of Ordinance is amended by the addition of the following proviso at

the end thereof :

No. 3 of

1873, s. 6.

Amendment

"Provided that the practice with regard to writs of certiorari, habeas corpus and manda- mus shall be the practice from time to time for the time being in force in England."

3. Sub-sections (2) and (3) of section 9 of the of Ordinance Supreme Court Ordinance, 1873, are amended by the

substitution in each case of the words-

No. 3 of

1873, s. 9.

Amendment

"save in the case of a judge appointed by the Governor under the provisions of section 10 of this Ordinance or under the provisions of section 5 (3) of the Full Court Ordinance, 1912"

for the words-

"save as is provided in section 5 (3) of the Full Court Ordinance, 1912"

4. Section 10 of the Supreme Court Ordinance, of Ordinance 1873, is amended by the addition of the following sub-

section at the end thereof :~

No. 3 of

-1873, s. 10.

(3) If in any other case the Governor for any reason considers it desirable that a tem- porary judge should be appointed in addition to the judges in the permanent service of the Colony, it shall be lawful for him tempor- arily to appoint a fit and proper person to be a judge, and to terminate any such appoint- ment as and when he shall think it desirable.

3

یا

171

Objects and Reasons

1. At present the power to appoint temporarily a judge of the Supreme Court is confined to the follow- ing cases :-

(a) Where the office of a judge has become vacant by death or otherwise: Ordinance No. 3 of 1873, s. 10 (1).

(b) In case of the temporary illness or absence of a judge: Ordinance No. 3 of 1873, s. 10 (2).

(c) For the purposes of the Full Court Ordinance,

1912 Ordinance No. 27 of 1912, s. 5 (3).

There is no express power to appoint a judge to relieve from or in his judicial duties a judge who may be engaged at the time in other public work, or to appoint an additional judge for the purpose of deal- ing with a pressure of judicial work. The chief object of this bill is to give the Governor power to appoint a temporary judge in any case in which he considers it desirable for any reason. This is effected by clause 4

of this bill.

2. Sub-section (2) of section 9 of the principal Ordinance provides that, "save as is provided in section 5 (3) of the Full Court Ordinance, 1912", every judge shall be appointed by Letters Patent under the public seal of the Governor, in accordance with such instructions as he may receive through a Secretary of State. Sub-section (3) of the same section pro- vides, subject to the same saving, that the judges shall hold office during His Majesty's pleasure. The obvious intention of the two savings is that a person appointed temporarily to sit as judge in the Full Court (a) need not be appointed in the formal manner in which per- manent judges are appointed, and (b) shall cease to hold office when the necessity for his appointment Clause 2 of this bill extends these two exemp- tions to all temporary judges. The wording of the saving is slightly altered because neither of the sections referred to in it makes any express provision for either exemption.

ceases.

3. Clause 2 of the bill deals with a matter which has long been awaiting a convenient opportunity. Section 6 of the Supreme Court Ordinance, 1873, provides in effect "so much of the practice of the English Courts as existed on the 5th April, 1843, shall be in force in the Colony", except so far as the said practice may have been modified by local legislation. The former English practice had been so modified in the following branches of the law :-

(a) Civil proceedings generally, exclusive of-

(1) matters testamentary,

(2) bankruptcy,

(3) Admiralty, and

(4) companies.

This is under the Code of Civil Procedure:

Ordinance No. 3 of 1901, s. 3.

(b) Probate jurisdiction :

1897, ss. 45, 74 and 75.

Ordinance No. 2 of

(e) Bankruptcy: Ordinance No. 7 of 1891.

(d) Admiralty: Ordinance No. 6 of 1896.

-

172

(e) Companies: Ordinance No. 58 of 1911.

(7) The practice of "the Supreme Court acting in the exercise of its criminal jurisdiction": Ordinance No. 9 of 1899.

(9) Magistrates appeals: Ordinance No. 3 of

1890.

(h) Summary Court appeals: Ordinance No.

of 1873.

4. It would seem that all the ground of the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court is covered by local legislation with the exception of such Crown Office matters as are not instances of the exercise by the Such Supreme Court of its criminal jurisdiction. matters include habeas corpus, mandamus, and perhaps some writs of certiorari. The only reference to the Crown Office is in section 4 of Ordinance No. 9 of 1899, and that does not help in any way on the present point.

5. If the practice in these Crown Office matters is not provided for by local legislation the position is that we are thrown back on the practice of the 5th April, 1843, which is a most inconvenient state of affairs. Accordingly, clause 2 of this bill provides. that the practice with regard to writs of certiorari, habeas corpus and mandamus shall be the practice from time to time for the time being in force in England. It is unnecessary to provide for any pending matters because there are none of any of these three classes at the moment.

Attorney General.

C.S.O.

173

A BILL

[No. 4-14.2.29.-1.]

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Bankruptcy Ordi-

nance, 1891.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hong Kong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Bankruptcy Short title. Amendment Ordinance, 1929.

2. Section 27 of the Bankruptcy Ordinance, 1891, is Amendment amended as follows:-

(a) by the insertion of the following words imme- diately after the word "court" in the third line of sub-section (3):-

"shall take into consideration a report of the Official Receiver as to the bankrupt's con- duct and affairs (including a report as to the bankrupt's conduct during the pro- ceedings under his bankruptcy), and,'

(b) by the addition of the following sub-section at

the end thereof :-

"(9) For the purposes of this section the report of the Official Receiver shall be prima facie evidence of the statements therein contained ".

3. The Bankruptcy Ordinance, 1891, as amended by this Ordinance, shall apply to all proceedings under the said Ordinance, whether begun before or after the coming into operation of this Ordinance.

of Ordinance No. 7 of

4

1891, s. 27.

and 5 Geo. 5, c. 59, s. 26 (2), (6).

Application of Ordinance No. 7 of 1891, as amended by this Ordinance.

Objects and Reasons.

This short bill is to introduce two provisions of the English bankruptcy law which do not appear in the Hong Kong Bankruptcy Ordinance, No. 7 of 1891, though they did appear in the English Act on which that Ordinance was founded, i.c., the Bankruptcy Act, 1890, 53 & 54 Vict., c. 71. These two provisions appear also in the present English Bankruptcy Act, 1914, 4 & 5 Geo. 5, c. 59. They are (a) a provision that when a bankrupt comes up for his discharge the court shall take into consideration a report of the Official Receiver on the bankrupt's conduct and affairs, including his conduct during the bankruptcy proceedings, and (b) a provision that the Official Receiver's report shall be prima facie evidence of the statements therein con- tained. The amendments are made applicable to pend- ing bankruptcies.

Objects and Reasons.

1. This Ordinance will effect certain amendments in the Tobacco Ordinance, 1916, which are recommended by the Superintendent of Imports and Exports.

2. The main object of this Ordinance is to adopt in the case of tobacco manufactured in Hong Kong the prin- ciple of taxation at the source. It is on this principle that the duty is collected in Great Britain on tobacco manufactured there. Henceforward, therefore, tobacco will no longer be manufactured in bond but there will be a flat rate on the imported raw leaf used in manufacture. The same rule of a flat rate is intro- duced in the case of all manufactured tobacco imported, in place of the present system of division into numerous classes according to value for the purposes. of taxation.

3. It has proved, in practice, impossible to control adequately the numerous factories, many of them working on a small scale, which receive raw leaf and pay duty only on such of their manufactured products. as they declare for local consumption.

179

4. It has also proved extremely difficult to assign to their proper classes the numerous brands of cigars and cigarettes which are now on the market here.

5. There is also the problem of the cigarette deliber- ately sold at a loss in order to kill competition or to establish a new brand.

6. There are also frequent alterations in the quality of the goods sold, without a corresponding alteration in the price.

7. Once the manufacturer has to pay duty on his raw material as soon as he imports it or draws it from bond, a system of paying drawbacks on such of his product as he exports must be concurrently intro- duced, and this will be done by regulations made under section 3 (1) (b) of the principal Ordinance as amended by clause 3 of this Ordinance.

8. The amount of drawback to be returned on export is calculated on the average amount of raw material which has been consumed in making the various kinds of manufactured tobacco.

9. Opportunity has also been taken to alter some parts of the original Ordinance, where experience has proved that the existing wording was not sufficiently clear, or required amendment.

10. Clause 3 of this Ordinance amends section 3 (1) (b) of the principal Ordinance by substituting the word "drawback for the word rebates", because the former is the term commonly used.

66

11. Clause 4 makes it incumbent upon an exporter claiming a drawback on exported tobacco to sign a declaration to the effect that the tobacco in respect of which drawback is being claimed has been actually shipped for export and is not intended to be relanded in the Colony, and stating the name of the person who, upon exportation will be entitled to receive the draw- back thereon.

12. Clause 5, which is based upon section 15 of the English Act 3 & 4 Vict. c. 18, imposes penalties for fraudulently attempting to obtain drawbacks. It also provides for the recovery of sums forfeited.

13. Clause 6 of this Ordinance amends section 2 of the principal Ordinance as follows:--

(i) by the insertion of a new definition of "duti- able tobacco" in section 2 (a) so as to make it clear that tobacco, as defined by paragraph (n), if re-imported, must pay duty again.. (ii) by an alteration in sub-section (c) thereof which simplifies the definition of the word "export".

It is no

14. Clause 7 of this Ordinance, which amends section 6 of the principal Ordinance, introduces the new system of duty and new scale of duties. part policy of this Ordinance to increase the rate of duty on tobacco generally, though of course the in- troduction of the new system necessarily involves individual variations of duty. The proposed new section 6 (2) is a temporary provision dealing with the tobacco present at the commencement of the Ordinance on the licensed premises of the holders of manu- facturer's licences. At present the duty on such tobacco is not payable until removal from the licensed premises, but under the new system duty is payable. on the importation of the raw leaf and manufacture in bond will be no longer possible. The Superintendent is therefore given authority to estimate the amount of

180

tobacco on any manufacturer's licensed premises at the commencement of the Ordinance, and to classify it as unmanufactured tobacco or as manufactured tobacco. In the case of such manufactured tobacco he will also estimate the weight of unmanufactured tobacco from which the manufactured tobacco was produced, and the duty will be payable on the weight so estimated. Paragraph (a) of sub-section 3 of section 6 of the principal Ordinance is repealed because exported tobacco will no longer be ex- empt from duty but will instead be entitled to a drawback. Through tobacco is not made absolutely exempt from duty as it might be, but if it is duly handled in accordance with the principal Ordinance the effect of section 11 of that Ordinance will be that the duty will never become payable. Sub-section (4) of section 6 of the principal Ordinance is repealed because it provided for the rate of duty to be paid on tobacco manufactured in the Colony in bond.

15. Clause 8 of this Ordinance is intended to im- prove the form of section 7 of the principal Ordinance. It also deals with the time of coming into operation of any resolution of Legislative Council passed under that

section.

16. Clause 9 of this Ordinance repeals section 8 of the principal Ordinance as having been now rendered unnecessary by the provisions of Ordinance No. 9 of 1927 whereby the Governor has power conferred upon him to impose or alter duties, etc., in anticipation either of the passing of a bill or of a resolution of the Legislative Council.

17. Clause 10 of this Ordinance substitutes "time" for "day" throughout section 10 of the principal Ordinance, so as to correspond with the "time" pro- visions of Ordinance No. 9 of 1927 section 4 (1), and of the new section 7 of the principal Ordinance, which have been above referred to.

18. Clause 11 of this Ordinance amends section 11 (b) of the principal Ordinance by making provision for tobacco being removed from one bonded warehouse to another. It also repeals section 11 (2) of the prin- cipal Ordinance which is incompatible with the new system of duties as explained above.

"

19. Clauses 12, 13 and 14 of this Ordinance eliminate the word "dutiable from sections 17, 18, 21 and 22 of the principal Ordinance as being unnecessary. Clause 13 also corrects an error in section 18 (1) of the principal Ordinance by substituting "bonded " for "licensed" in the last line of that sub-section.

20. Clause 15 of this Ordinance effects certain verbal amendments in section 24 of the principal Ordinance, which are intended to make the meaning of that section more definite and clear.

21. Clause 16 relieves the Governor in Council of certain functions which it is thought can be dealt with more appropriately by the Superintendent of the department.

22. Clause 17 of this Ordinance repeals sub-section (2) of section 31 of the principal Ordinance as being incompatible with the new system of duties.

23. Clause 18 of this Ordinance deletes the word "dutiable" from section 38 (4) of the principal Ordi- nance as being an undesirable limitation on the powers of the Superintendent.

181

"

24. Clause 19 of this Ordinance substitutes a new and simplified section 50 in the place of the present section 50 of the principal Ordinance, "incorrect being substituted for "false or inaccurate or mislead- ing".

25. Clause 20 of this Ordinance effects an amend- ment in section 53 of the principal Ordinance which is intended to enlarge the utility of the Analyst's certifi- cate as evidence at the hearing of any charge.

26. Clause 21 of this Ordinance assimilates the lan- guage of section 61 (1) of the principal Ordinance to that of section 5 (2) of this Ordinance.

Repeal of Ordinance No. 1 of 1885.

14. The Unclaimed Balances Ordinance, 1885, is repealed.

Repeal of Ordinance

No. 2 of 1897, s. 25.

15. Section 25 of the Probates Ordinance, 1897, is repealed.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The Unclaimed Balances Ordinance, 1885, Ordinance No. 1 of 1885, provides for the transfer to the general revenue of the Colony of the following:

(a) All sums of money, which, at the commencement of the Ordinance, had remained unclaimed in the Treasury for at least five years.

(b) All sums of money, other than balances of intestates estates, which after the commencement of the Ordinance remain unclaimed in the Treasury for at least five years.

(c) Under certain conditions, the balances of intes- tates estates administered by the Official Admi- nistrator.

(d) Under certain conditions, sums of money, other than balances of intestates estates, which remain unclaimed in the Supreme Court for at least five

years.

2. To enable suns under class (e), the balances of intestates estates, to be transferred, certain advertisements are necessary, except where the funds of the estate are less than $20 in value, and these advertisements have to state that the funds remaining from the estate will be transferred to the general revenue if no claim is made within five years from the death of the deceased. No provision is made to meet cases in which the necessary advertisements are not made, or in which administration is not obtained, within five years from the death of the intestate. Such cases have occurred, and there would appear to be no machinery whereby due advertisement can now be made, so that the money, if unclaimed, may be transferred to the general revenue of the Colony.

3. Further, no provision is made for the transfer to the general revenue of sums which remain unclaimed in the hands of some officer other than the Treasurer.

4. The object of the present Ordinance is to meet these points.

5. Section 2 is inserted in order to make it quite clear that the Official Administrator, Official Receiver and Official Trustee are officers of the Government for the purposes of this Ordinance, though they deal with non- Government money.

185

6. Section 3 provides that all sums of money which, for a period of at least five years, have remained unclaimed in the Treasury, or in the hands of any officer of the Govern- ment, shall be at once transferred to the general revenue of the Colony.

7. Section 4 provides for the transfer to the general revenue of future sums which remain so unclaimed, other than 2) the balances of intestates estates and (77) sums of money in the Supreme Court, These two classes of unclaimed money are dealt with in special ways, balances of intestates estates being dealt with by sections 5, 6 and 7, and sums of money in the Supreme Court being dealt with by section 8. In both these cases the procedure is more elaborate than under section 4. One class of balances of intestates estates is reserved for the simpler procedure of section 4, i.e., balances of intestates estates administered by the Official Administrator under section 19 of the Probates Ordinance, 1897. That section applies only to estates which do not exceed $250 in value. The transfer under section 4 will be made by the Governor under the hand of the Colonial Secretary. The order and any conditions attached thereto will be published in the Gazette.

8. Section 5 provides that where administration is granted to the Official Administrator in respect of the estate of any person who has died intestate, and where a balance from such estate remains in the hands of the Official Administrator and the next of kin of the deceased are not known to him, he shall cause advertisements to be published to the effect that if no claim is made within five years from the date of the first publication of such advertisements in the Colony the balance remaining from the estate in question will be transferred to the general revenue of the Colony, subject to the provisions of the Ordinance. The advertisement has to be published in the Colony, and also in any place where it appears pro- bable that persons entitled to sharing in the residue may be found, if the Official Administrator considers that such further advertisement is desirable. These provisions are al-o applied to grants made before the commencement of this Ordinance, but it is provided that a Ivertisement under this Ordinance will not be necessary in any case where adver- tisement had already been made before the commencement of the Ordinance in accordance with the law in force at the time of such advertisement, It is also provide! that no advertisement will be nece-sary under the Ordinance- where the net value of any estate remaining unadminister- ed at the commencement of this Ordinance is less than $100 or where the net value of any future estate is less than $100. Section 4 of the present Ordinance, No. 1 of 1885, requires advertisement "in the mother country of the deceased", a curious phrase. Section 5 of the new Ordi- nance requires instead that advertisement be made, if desirable, in the place or places where it is most likely to be effective.

9. Section 6 directs the Official Administrator to pay any unclaimed balance of an intestate estate either into the Treasury or under the direction of the Treasurer into an account of the Government at a named bank. The Governor has power to direct that any such sum be trans- ferred to the general revenue of the Colouy, but in the case of a balance amounting to $100 or upwards this power can only be exercised on production of a certificate by the Official Administrator that the advertisements required have been published and that five years have elapsed since such advertisements and that no further claim can reasonably be expected.

10. Section 7 provides that interest shall run on any unclaimed balances paid into the Treasury under the provisions of section 6. The interest will cease on trans- fer to the general revenue. No interest will run on amounts under $100.

5

186

11. Provision is made by section 8 for the transfer to general revenue of unclaimed balances, other than those of intestates estates, remaining in the Supreme Court for five years or longer, and the Court is empowered to require notice to such parties as it may think fit.

12. Section 9 provides that every transfer to the general revenue under the provisions of this Ordinance shall be subject to the provisions of the Ordinance as regards refunds.

13. Section 10 provides that any claimant to any money transferred to the general revenue under the new Ordin- ance, or under the Unclaimed Balances Ordinance, 1885, may prosecute his claim by a petition to the Supreme Court, but it is laid down that no such petition shall be presented except within the same time and subject to the same rule of law and equity in and subject to which an action for the like purpose might be brought against a subject. This limitation of time and this exclusion of merely moral claims are based on the provisions of section 3 of the Intestates Estates Act, 1884, 47 & 48 Vict. c. 71.

14. A further safeguard is provided by section 11, which empowers the Governor in Commeil to entertain any moral claim to any sum of money which may have been trans- ferred to the general revenue under this Ordinance or the old Ordinance.

15. Section 12 makes any payment under this Ordinance a charge on the general revenue.

16. Section 80 of the Bankruptcy Ordinance, 1891, lays down the procedure to be followed with regard to unclaimed dividends and funds in bankruptcy proceedings. Such unclaimed amounts are paid to the Registrar of the Supreme Court, who has to hold them for a period of five years. During that time he has authority to pay out any amount to any person who satisfies him of his title to such amount. Sub-section (4) of section 80 of the Bankruptcy Ordinance directs that at the end of this period of five years the Registrar is to pay any unclaimed money to the Treasurer for the use of the Colony, and it also provides that all claims thereon shall be thenceforth barred. It is considered desirable to leave this procedure untouched, and accordingly section 12 provides that nothing in the present Ordinance is to affect the provisions of the Bank- ruptcy Ordinance with reference to unclaimed dividends aud funds in bankruptcy proceedings. The section refers to the Bankruptcy Ordinance generally, and not to section 80 because it is probable that the present Bankruptcy Ordinance will soon be replaced by an amending and con- solidating Ordinance, and it is not possible at present to say how or where the special provisions with regard to unclaimed dividends and funds will appear. The reference to the Bankruptey Ordinance, 1891, will, by virtue of section 14 of Ordinance No. 31 of 1911, be construed as a reference to the new Bankruptcy Ordinance when it becomes law.

17. Section 13 repeals the Unclaimed Balances Ordin- ance, 1885.

18. Section 14 repeals section 25 of the Probates Ordinance, 1897. That section lays down that the provisions of the Unclaimed Balances Ordinance, 1885, in relation to unclaimed balances of the estates of persons dying intestate shall mutatis mutandis apply to moneys received or taken possession of by the Official Adminis- trator under section 14 or section 19 of the Probates Ordinance, with a certain proviso. There are several objections to this section. A mutatis mutandis clause is to be avoided if possible because there is sometimes doubt as to what should be changed and as to how it should be

187

changed. Again section 14 of the Probates Ordinance gives the Official Administrator power to take possession of all kinds of movable property. Section 25 makes Ordinance No. 1 of 1885 apply only to moneys actually taken possession of under that section 14, and makes provision for no other property taken possession of under that section or for the proceeds of such property, Similarly, section 25 of the Probates Ordinance makes Ordinance No. 1 of 1885 apply only to moneys actually taken possession of under section 19, and does not make it apply to the balance of the estate when the estate has been realised and the liabilities paid. Section 14 of this Ordinance therefore repeals section 25 of the Probates Ordinance. Words have been inserted in section 4 of this Ordinance to bring the balances of small intestates estates administered under section 19 of the Probates Ordinance within the scope of section 4 of this Ordinance. There is no need to make any similar provision with regard to section 14 of the Probates Ordinance. That section merely gives the Official Administrator power to take possession of the movable property of a deceased person and to provide for its safe custody until probates or administration is granted. If the whole value of any such estate does not exceed $250 the Official Administrator cau administer it under section 19 of the Probates Ordinance.

(5) The auditors of the Bank who shall be in office at the time of the commencement of the Ordinance shall subject to regulation 151 hold office until the next ordinary yearly general meeting.

(6) The Board may fill any casual vacancy in the office of auditor, but while any such vacancy continues the surviving or continuing auditor or auditors, if any, may act.

P

Objects and Reasons.

1. The object of this Bill is to consolidate and amend the constitution of the Hongkong and Shanghai Bank, which is at present to be found in two different Ordinances, namely, 2 of 1866 and 2 of 1924, and in the Deed of Settlement of 1867 and the amendments thereto.

2. Concurrently with the Bill there have been prepared a new set of regulations of the Bank to replace the pro- visions of the Deed of Settlement and amendments, which regulations appear in the Schedule to the Bill.

3. The Bill contains an interpretation clause (clause 2). Hitherto the interpretation clause has been in the Deed of Settlement, but it is considered more regular that it should appear in the Ordinance. The present interpretation clause

is fuller than that in the Deed of Settlement.

4. The Bank is being now incorporated for an unlimited period (see clause 3). Under previous legislation the Bank has been incorporated for limited periods only, and the current term of incorporation would, apart from the provisions of this Ordinance, expire in August, 1929. is obviously desirable that the incorporation of the Bank should now be made permanent.

It

5. Clause 4 substitutes new regulations for the provi- sions in the Deed of Settlement, and provides for amend- ment and proof of such regulations. It also enacts that the Ordinance and the regulations for the time being shall bind not merely the Bank and the shareholders but also third parties. The reason for binding third parties is that they are affected by certain provisions of the regulations, namely, 34 (1), 36, 42, 44, 45, 51, 52 and 53.

6. Clause 5 (1), in conjunction with regulation No. 3, shows a marked advance on section 4 (1) of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866, which authorises the carrying on of the business of banking only. Regulation No. 3, which has been drafted after most careful consideration of the Bank's present and prospective requirements, enables the Bank to carry on all such kinds of business as experience has shown can be suitably and profitably conducted in con- junction with the main and principal business of banking.

7. Clause 5 (1) also contains a definition of the word "establishment", and continues the present practice that new establishments of the Bank shall only be opened with the consent of the Commissioners for the time being of His Majesty's Treasury. Clause 5 (2) gives the Bank power to close any of its establishments.

8. Clause 6 corresponds with the first part of section 21 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866. As regards the latter part of that section, see regulation No. 3 (12).

9. Clause 7 reproduces in simplified language the com- bined effect of sections 5 and 22 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866, as amended by section 3 of Ordinance No. 10 of 1922.

10. Clauses 8 and 9 make certain provisions as to altera- tion and reorganisation of capital, which might possibly in the future be useful, applicable to the Bank. These provisions are based on sections 41 and 45 of the English Companies Act, 1908, except that, for the sake of sim- plicity,

(1) the power of sub-division conferred by clause 8 (b) is made exerciseable by ordinary resolution instead of by special resolution, and

(2) the power of reorganisation in clause 9 is made exerciseable subject to the prior approval of the Governor instead of subject to the prior approval of the court.

265

11. Clause 10 is based on section 12 (1) of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866. The Bank does not require the re-enactment of the other sub-sections of section 12 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866. The liability of shareholders for the note issue is dealt with in clause 12 of the Bill. The limitation of the period of issue to July 1939 is made as the result of instructions from the Secretary of State.

12. Clause 11, as to the amount of and security for the note issue, is a reproduction of section 13 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866, as amended by Ordinance No. 2 of 1924, except that the word "notes" is substituted for "bills and notes," because the word "note," alone is considered by the Bank sufficient.

13. Clause 12, as to the liability of shareholders on dis- solution, re-enacts in simplified language the combined provisions of section 12 (5) and (6), and of section 25 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866. See too regulation No. 166 which replaces article 208 of the Deed of Settlement.

14. Clause 13 as to forms of contract and clause 14 as to bills of exchange and promissory notes apply to the Bank the provisions of sections 76 and 77 of the English Companies Act, 1908, which are in accord with the

                   present practice of the Bank.

15. Clause 15 re-enacts section 16 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866, except that one-tenth is substituted for one-third.

16. Clause 16 re-enacts section 14 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866.

17. Clause 17 re-enacts section 28 (1) and (2) of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866. It does not appear necessary to re-enact sub-section (3) of section 28.

18. Clause 18 makes the necessary repeals. It should be mentioned that, although section 11 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866 refers to the possibility of by-laws being made under the Deed of Settlement, no such by-laws have in fact been made.

19. Clause 19 is the usual clause for saving the rights of the Crown and others.

20. It only remains to add that the following provisions of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866 have no counterpart in the present measure, because they are either impracticable under pre- sent day conditions (see sections 19 and 20), or unnecessary (see sectious 10, 11, 15, 17, 18, 24, 26, 27 and 29).

In regard to Appendix 2 it may be pointed out that Reg. 53 substitutes a transfer

in writing for the present form of transfer by Deed. The reason for making the

change is that "a deed executed in blank is inoperative as a legal transfer" (See

Palmer page 669, citing Hibblethwite v M'Morine 6 M and W 200, and Powell v

London and Provincial Bank 1893, 2 Ch. 555.)

Objects and Reasons.

1. The object of this Bill is to consolidate and amend the constitution of the Hongkong and Shanghai Bank, which is at present to be found in two different Ordinances, namely, 2 of 1866 and 2 of 1924, and in the Deed of Settlement of 1967 and the amendments thereto.

2. Concurrently with the Bill there have been prepared a new set of regulations of the Bank to replace the pro- visions of the Deed of Settlement and amendments, which regulations appear in the Schedule to the Bill.

3. The Bill contains an interpretation clanse (clause 2). Hitherto the interpretation clanse has been in the Deed of Settlement, but it is considered more regular that it should appear in the Ordinance. The present interpretation clause

is fuller than that in the Deed of Settlement.

4. The Bank is being now incorporated for an unlimited period (see elunse 3). Under previous legislation the Bank has been incorporatel for limited periods only, and the current term of incorporation would, apart from the provisions of this Ordinance, expire in August, 1929. It is obviously desirable that the incorporation of the Bank should now be made permaneut.

5. Clause 4 substitutes new regulations for the provi- sions in the Deel of Settlement, and proviles for a nend- ment and proof of such regulations. It also enacts that the Ordinance and the regulations for the time being shall bind not merely the Bank and the shareholders but also third parties. The reason for binding third parties is that they are affected by certain provisions of the regulations, namely, 34 (1), 36, 42, 44, 45, 51, 52 and 53.

6. Clause 5 (1), in conjunction with regulation No. 3, shows a marked alvance on section 4 (I) of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866, which authorises the carrying on of the business of banking only. Regulation No. 3, which has been draftel after most careful consideration of the Bank's present and prospective require ne its, enables the Bauk to carry on all such kinds of business as experience has showa can be suitably and profitably eɔducted in con- junction with the main and principal business of banking.

7. Clause 5 (1) also contains a definition of the word "establishme it", and continues the present practice that new establish nents of the Bank shall only be opened with the consent of the Commissioners for the time being of His Majesty's Treasury. Clause 5 (2) gives the Bank power to close any of its establishments.

8. Clause 6 corresponds with the first part of section 21 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1865. As regards the latter part of that section, see regulation No. 3 (12).

9. Clanse 7 reproduces in simplified language the com- bined effect of sections 5 and 22 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866, as amended by section 3 of Ordinance No. 10 of 1922.

10. Clauses 8 and 9 make certain provisions as to altera- tion and reorganisation of capital, which might possibly in the future be useful, applicable to the Bauk. These provisions are based on sections 41 and 45 of the English Companies Act, 1908, except that, for the sake of sim- plicity,

(1) the power of sub-division conferred by clause 8 (b) is made exerciseable by ordinary resolution instead of by special resolution, and

(2) the power of reorganisation in clause 9 is made exerciseable subject to the prior approval of the Governor instead of subject to the prior approval of the court.

341

11. Clause 10 is based on section 12 (1) of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866. The Bank does not require the re-enactment of the other sub-sections of section 12 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866. The liability of shareholders for the note issue is dealt with in clause 12 of the Bill. The limitation of the period of issue to July 1939 is male as the result of instructions from the Secretary of State.

12. Clause 11, as to the amount of and security for the note issue, is a reproduction of section 13 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866, as amended by Ordinance No. 2 of 1924, except that the word "notes" is substituted for "bills and notes," because the word "note," alone is considered by the Bank sufficient.

13. Clause 12, as to the liability of shareholders on dis- solution, re-enacts in simplified language the combined provisions of section 12 (5) and (6), and of section 25 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866. See too regulation No. 166 which replaces article 208 of the Deed of Settlement.

14. Clause 13 as to forms of contract and clause 14 as to bills of exchange and promissory notes apply to the Bank the provisions of sections 76 and 77 of the English Companies Act, 1908, which are in accord with the present practice of the Bank.

15. Clause 15 re-enacts section 16 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866, except that one-tenth is substituted for one-third.

16. Clause 16 re-enacts section 14 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866.

17. Clause 17 re-enacts section 28 (1) and (2) of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866. It does not appear necessary to re-enact sub-section (3) of section 28.

18. Clause 18 makes the necessary repeals. It should be mentioned that, although section 11 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866 refers to the possibility of by-laws being made under the Deed of Settlement, no such by-laws have in fact been made.

19. Clause 19 is the usual clause for saving the rights of the Crown and others.

20. It only remains to add that the following provisions of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866 have no counterpart in the present measure, because they are either impracticable under pre- sent day conditions (see sections 19 and 20), or unnecessary (see sections 10, 11, 15, 17, 18, 24, 26, 27 and 29).

In view of the last sentence in Clause 3 this clause is super- fluous.

In regard to Appendix 2 it may be pointed out that Reg. 53 substitutes a transfer

in writing for the present form of transfer by Deed. The reason for making the

change is that "a deed executed in blank is inoperative as a legal transfer" (See

London and Provincial Bank 1893, 2 Ch. 555.)

Objects and Reasons.

1. The object of this Bill is to consolidate and amend the constitution of the Hongkong and Shanghai Bank, which is at present to be found in two different Ordinances, namely, 2 of 1866 and 2 of 1924, and in the Deed of Settlement of 1867 and the amendments thereto.

2. Concurrently with the Bill there have been prepare l a new set of regulations of the Bank to replace the pro- visions of the Deel of Settlement and amendments, which regulations appear in the Schedule to the Bill.

3. The Bill contains an interpretation clause (clause 2). Hitherto the interpretation clause has been in the Deed of Settlement, but it is considered more regular that it should appear in the Ordinance. The present interpretation clause is fuller than that in the Deed of Settlement.

4. The Bank is being now incorporated for an unlimited period (see clanse 3). Under previous legislation the Bank has been incorporated for limited periods only, and the current term of incorporation would, apart from the provisions of this Ordinance, expire in August, 1929. It is obviously desirable that the incorporation of the Bank should now be made permanent.

5. Clause substitutes new regulations for the provi- sions in the Deed of Settlement, and provides for amend- ment and proof of such regulations. It also enacts that the Ordinance and the regulations for the time being shall bind not merely the Bank and the shareholders but also third parties. The reason for binding third parties is that they are affected by certain provisions of the regulations, namely, 34 (1), 36, 42, 44, 45, 51, 52 and 53.

6. Clause 5 (1), in conjunction with regulation No. 3, shows a marked advance on section 4 (1) of Ordinance No. 2 of 1865, which authorises the carrying on of the business of banking only. Regulation No. 3, which has been drafted after most careful consideration of the Bank's present and prospective requirements, enables the Bank to carry on all such kinds of business as experience has shown can be suitably and profitably conducted in con- junction with the main and principal business of banking.

7. Clause 5 (1) also contains a definition of the word "establishment and continues the present practice that new establishments of the Bank shall only be opened with the consent of the Commissioners for the time being of His Majesty's Treasury. Clanse 5 (2) gives the Bank power to close any of its establishments.

8. Clause 6 corresponds with the first part of section 21 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866. As regards the latter part of that section, see regulation No. 3 (12).

9. Clause 7 reproduces in simplified language the com- bined effect of sections 5 and 22 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866, as amended by section 3 of Ordinance No. 10 of 1922.

10. Clauses 8 and 9 make certaiu provisions as to altera- tion and reorganisation of capital, which might possibly in the future be useful, applicable to the Bank. These provisions are based on sections 41 and 45 of the English Companies Act, 1908, except that, for the sake of sim- plicity,

(1) the power of sub-division conferred by clause 8 (b) is made exerciseable by ordinary resolution instead of by special resolution, and

(2) the power of reorganisation in clause 9 is made exerciseable subject to the prior approval of the Governor instead of subject to the prior approval of the court.

484

11. Clause 10 is based on section 12 (1) of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866. The Bank does not require the re-enactment. of the other sub-sections of section 12 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866. The liability of shareholders for the note issue is dealt with in clause 12 of the Bill. The limitation of the period of issue to July 1939 is made as the result of instructions from the Secretary of State.

12. Clause 11, as to the amount of aud security for the note issue, is a reproduction of section 13 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866, as amended by Ordinance No. 2 of 1924, except that the word notes is substituted for "bills and notes," because the word "note," alone is considered by the Bank sufficient.

13. Clause 12, as to the liability of shareholders on dis- solution, re-enacts in simplified language the combined provisions of section 12 (5) and (6), and of section 25 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866. See too regulation No. 166 which replaces article 208 of the Deed of Settlement.

14. Clause 13 as to forms of contract and clause 14 as to bills of exchange and promissory notes apply to the Bank the provisions of sections 76 and 77 of the English Companies Act, 1908, which are in accord with the present practice of the Bank.

15. Clause 15 re-enacts section 16 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866, except that one-tenth is substituted for one-third.

16. Clause 16 re-enacts section 14 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866.

17. Clause 17 re-enacts section 28 (1) and (2) of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866. It does not appear necessary to re-enact sub-section (3) of section 28.

18. Clause 18 makes the necessary repeals. It should be mentioned that, although section 11 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866 refers to the possibility of by-laws being made under the Deed of Settlement, no such by-laws have in fact been made.

19. Clause 19 is the usual clause for saving the rights of the Crown and others.

20. It only remains to add that the following provisions of Ordinance No. 2 of 1866 have no counterpart in the present measure, because they are either impracticable under pre- sent day conditions (see sections 19 and 20), or unnecessary (see sections 10, 11, 15, 17, 18, 24, 26, 27 and 29).

In regard to Appendix 2 it may be pointed out that Reg. 53 substitutes a transfer

in writing for the present form of transfer by Deed. The reason for making the

change is that "a deed executed in blank is inoperative as a legal transfer" (See

Palmer page 669, citing Hibblethwite v M'Morine 6 M and W 200, and Powell v

London and Provincial Bank 1893, 2 Ch. 555.)

Objects and Reasons.

1. The First Schedule of the Sunday Cargo Working Ordinance, 1891, Ordinance No. 1 of 1891, contains the form of permit which must be used under the Ordi- nance. That form recites the previous payment of the permit fee. No power exists in the Ordinance to alter this form, so that it can be altered only by a new Ordi- nance. Payment of the fee in advance is inconvenient because it frequently happens that a permit which has been taken out is not used. In such a case the holder of the permit is put to the trouble of applying for a refund of the fee, and the Harbour Department and Treasury are put to the trouble of making the refund. It was therefore proposed to pass an amending Ordi- nance so as to allow for the subsequent payment of the permit fee.

2. Under the present Ordinance a practice bas grown up of returning an unused permit to the Harbour Office with an endorsement to the effect that the permit has not been used. This is for the purpose of claiming a refund of the fee. There is, however, no penalty under the Ordinance for a false or incorrect endorsement of this kind. It was therefore proposed to include in the amending Ordinance the provision of a penalty for this

purpose.

3. It was subsequently found that other amendments of the Ordinance were also desirable, on the following points :-

(a) Section 4 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1891, deals with the hours during which applications for Sunday permits may be made. This is a matter which would more properly be dealt with by regulation, if indeed it were necessary

!

i

569

to legislate for it at all. It is omitted both from the present bill and from the regulations. in the First Schedule to the bill, because it is thought that the matter may be left to departmental arrangement.

(b) Section 6 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1891 gives power to make regulations, but that power is limited. It is enlarged in the bill. For example, power is given to the Governor in- Council to exempt any specified vessel or class of ship from the operation of the Ordi-

nance.

(e) Section 7 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1891 provides a penalty for contraventions of section 3 of that Ordinance, but no penalty is provided for breaches of regulations made under the Ordi-

nance.

(d) The same section 7 makes "the agent and the consignee of such vessel" liable in the absence of the master. It fails to provide for the case where the ship has an owner in the Colony and no agent. Further the reference to "the consignee of such vessel" is perhaps a mis- take, though a general consignee of a ship is not unknown.

(e) The same section 7 unnecessarily deals with the question of the term of imprisonment which may be imposed in default of payment of the fine, a matter which is dealt with generally in section 57 of the Magistrates Ordinance, 1890.

(f) Section 8 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1891 provides unnecessarily for the case of persons who assist in contraventions of section 3 of the Ordinance. The question of aiders and abet- tors is dealt with generally by section 37 of the Magistrates Ordinance, 1890.

4. In view of these further points it was decided to repeal the present Ordinance and to re-enact it with variations. Most of these variations have been im- pliedly explained above.

5. The difficulty of bringing home to individuals any particular contravention of the Ordinance seems to call for some special remedy for the protection of the revenue. Clause 3 (2) of the bill, therefore, provides that if any cargo is worked on any ship contrary to the provisions of the Ordinance, the master, and the owners, charterers, (if any) and agents of the ship in question shall be deemed to have incurred a debt to the Crown equal to twice the amount of the Sunday permit fee for the ship in question. The reference in this sub-clause to "forfeiture" is inserted in order to made the debt in question recoverable by the pro- cedure laid down in Ordinance No. 6 of 1875. It is possible that section 7 of the present Ordinance makes master and agents liable criminally even in the absence of guilty knowledge, but it is considered that the case does not justify a provision of this exceptional nature, and that it is more appropriate to make the master, owners, etc., liable to pay double the usual permit fee if the Ordinance is contravened, on the ground that it is their duty to see that the revenue is not defrauded in a matter over which they have or should have con- trol.

6. Clause 6 of the bill lays down that the fee for any given Sunday permit must in general be paid within seven days after the date of issue, but it also provides that the fee shall not be payable if the holder satisfies the Harbour Master that no cargo was received on board, loaded, worked, or discharged, on or from the

570

ship in question on the Sunday for which the permit was issued, and if the holder shall also have complied with the law generally so far as it is relevent to the permit in question.

7. The bill proposes to repeal both Ordinance No. 1 of 1891 and the regulations now in force thereunder which appear on page 152 of the Regulations of Hong Kong, 1844-1925.

No. 15 of 1908, s. 3 (1) (c).

Retrospective effect.

Ordinance No. 18 of 1923.

Insertion of new section 3A in Ordinance No. 15 of 1908.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend further the Widows'

and Orphans' Pension Ordinance, 1908.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hong Kong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows :--

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Widows' and Orphans' Pension Amendment Ordinance, 1929.

2. Section 3 (1) (c) of the Widows' and Orphans' Pension Ordinance, 1908, is amended by the deletion of the word "not" in the third line.

3. The amendment made by section 2 of this Ordi- nance shall for all purposes whatsoever be deemed to have been made immediately after the coming into operation of the proclamation of the Governor under section 8 (2) of the Ordinances of Hong Kong, 1884- 1923, Ordinance, 1923, which was published in the Gazette of the 19th September, 1924.

4. The following section is inserted in the Widows' and Orphans' Pension Ordinance, 1908, immediately after section 3 thereof :-

Contributors to other schemes.

3A.-(1) No officer shall be required to contribute under this Ordinance if, and for so long as, he is contributing to an approved scheme.

(2) For the purposes of this section an approved scheme means a scheme for the granting of pensions to the widows and children of Government officers, estab- lished in a British Colony or Protectorate or in British India or in any territory in respect of which a mandate is being exer- cised by the government of any part of His Majesty's dominions, which is declared by the Secretary of State to be an approved scheme for the purposes of this section.

(3) Any claim for exemption under this section must be in writing and must reach the Colonial Secretary within three months. after the officer commences to draw salary from this Government.

(4) An officer who under this section. has claimed exemption from becoming a contributor under this Ordinance may not subsequently become a contributor under this Ordinance unless either he ceases to contribute to the approved scheme, or he marries, or he leaves the service of this Government and is subsequently re-ap- pointed to it.

(5) Nothing in this section shall exempt an officer, who on appointment or re-ap- pointment to the service of this Govern- ment is already a contributor under the scheme, from continuing his contributions thereto.

(6) If an officer obtains exemption. under this section, any contributions pre- viously made by him under this Ordinance shall be returned to him without interest.

581

5. Notwithstanding anything contained in section 4 of this Ordinance, a claim to exemption under section 3A of the Widows' and Orphans' Pension Ordinance, 1908, as enacted by this Ordinance, by any officer who at the commencement of this Ordi- nance is liable to contribute under the Widows' and Orphans' Pension Ordinance, 1908, may be made within three months after the commencement of this Ordinance, or, if such officer is on leave at the com- mencement of this Ordinance, within three months after his return from leave.

Objects and Reasons.

1908.

1. Section 2 of this Ordinance will correct an Temporary obvious mistake in section 3 (1) () of the Widows' provisions. and Orphans' Pension Ordinance, 1908, Ordinance No. 15 of 1908. The Widows' and Orphans' Pension Ordinance Scheme applies, generally speaking only to permanent No. 15 of officers, but in 1921 it was extended to persons appointed on an agreement for periods exceeding two years. Section 3 (1) (e) of the principal Ordinance in its present obviously incorrect form would make the Scheme apply to officers on agreement for periods not exceeding two years, while excluding officers on agreement for periods exceeding two years. This mistake must have occurred in the printing of the pre- sent revised edition, because the section appears correctly in the Law Revision Ordinance, 1924, Ordi- nance No. 5 of 1924, s. 36.

2. Section 3 makes this amendment retrospective, so as to date back to the time when the present revised edition of the Ordinances became the statute book for all purposes, because everyone has all along acted as if the word "not" did not occur in the paragraph in question. The proclamation referred to is the procla- mation which brought the new revised edition into effect.

3. Section 4 inserts in the principal Ordinance a section dealing with the case of persons transferred to Hong Kong who are already contributing to a widows' and orphans' pension scheme in some other Colony. The new section provides that such an officer need not contribute to the Hong Kong scheme. It gives him three months to claim exemption, the three months dating from the time when he commences to draw salary from this Government. The section applies only where the scheme to which the officer is already contributing is approved by the Secretary of State. The new section also provides that if an officer obtains exemption, any contributions previously made by him under the principal Ordinance shall be returned to him without interest. Some contributions might have been deducted while the officer's claim was being dealt with. The reference in sub-section 6 of the new section is to the obtaining of exemption because a claim would fail if the scheme in the other Colony were not approved by the Secretary of State. The new section is made to apply in the case of schemes in colonies, protectorates, mandated territories, and British India.

one

4. Section 5 of this Ordinance is a temporary pro- vision dealing with the case of officers who at present are liable to contribute under the principal Ordinance, but who will be entitled to claim exemption when this Ordinance becomes law. Such officers are given three months after the commencement of the Ordinance in which to claim exemption. Any such officers on leave at the commencement of this Ordinance will have three months after return from leave to claim exemption.

No. 6 of 1887.

>

Objects and Reasons

1. Section 7 of the Jury Ordinance, 1887, Ordinance No. 6 of 1887, provides that the Special Jurors List and the Common Jurors List for any particular year must be brought into force on the 1st day of March, and there is no power to extend this date. The section also requires that the list of persons liable to serve as jurors must be posted up outside the Courts of Justice on or before the 1st day of February in each year, and there is also no power to extend this date. The section also requires the consideration of the jurors list by the Legislative Council in the second half of February. The rigidity of these provisions has caused inconvenience from time to time and has sometimes made very difficult a proper consideration of points arising on the lists. This amending bill gives the Governor power to extend the dates in question in case of necessity.

2. The Jury Ordinance, 1887, provides for the final settlement of the lists by the Legislative Council. The bill transfers this duty to the Governor in Council, who is considered to be the more suitable authority.

584

3. The Jury Ordinance, 1887, throws on the Legis- lative Council the whole duty of selecting the special jurors. The bill provides that the list of special jurors shall be compiled in the first instance by the Registrar. The Registrar will be guided as to the number of names to be included in the list of special jurors as the bill provides for a certain maximum. This maxi- mum may be altered by the Governor in Council from time to time. The list of special jurors will be finally settled by the Governor in Council, and in settling the list the Governor in Council will not be bound by any previous order made by him with regard to the maxi- inum number of names to be included.

4. As the date on which the two lists for any parti- cular year are to be brought into use is no longer rigidly fixed by Ordinance the bill provides that the lists brought into use in any particular year shall continue in force until the lists settled in the following year are brought into use.

5. The above changes are made by clauses 3 and 4 of the bill. Clause 7 of the bill is a temporary pro- vision to the effect that the lists brought into use on the 1st day of March, 1929, shall continue in force until the new lists settled in 1930 are brought into

use.

6. The bill amends the principal Ordinance in cer- tain other minor points also.

7. Clause 2 amends section 4 of the Jury Ordinance, 1887, on the two following points. In the first place it makes an addition to paragraph (2) which is in- tended to make it clear that members of the Hong Kong Police Reserve are not to be exempt from jury service. In the second place, it omits the reference

to

dissent in paragraph (8), because it has been objected that the word dissent is inappropriate where there is no established religion.

8. Section 10 of the Jury Ordinance, 1887, pro- vides, inter alia, that a jury panel must be drawn by the Deputy Registrar in the presence of the Registrar. This might be inconvenient, and accordingly clause 5 amends section 10 of the Jury Ordinance, 1887, by providing that the panel may be drawn either by the Registrar or by a Deputy Registrar.

9. Section 24 of the Jury Ordinance, 1887, pro- vides, inter alia, that if a jury has not returned its verdict before all the other cases for trial at the same session "have been disposed of and when it sufficiently appears" that the jury cannot agree, the jury is to be discharged and a new jury to be empanelled. The word "session" is not entirely free from doubt, but even if it means only a day's sitting, a case may easily arise where it would be unnecessary to wait to the end of the day before being sure that the jury could not agree. Again, it may be doubtful when the point of time is reached which is described by the words of the section "(when) all the other cases for trial at the same sitting or session have been disposed of ". For example, two cases might be down for hearing on a particular day and only one might be disposed of on that day, or neither case might be finished on that day. Accordingly clause 6 of the bill alters the word "or" to "and" in the passage quoted at the beginning of this paragraph. The result will be that the court will have power to discharge a jury at any time when satisfied that the jury cannot agree upon a verdict.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the law relating to the restriction of the loading, working and discharging of cargo on Sunday.

Be it enacted by the Governor of Hong Kong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Sunday Cargo Working Ordinance, 1929.

2. In this Ordinance-

(a) "Cargo" does not include mails, personal luggage, live stock, ice, or articles of food of a perish- able nature required for immediate consumption;

(b) "Harbour Master" includes any person autho- rised or deputed by him to perform any duty vested in or imposed upon him by this Ordinance;

(e) "Ship" includes every description of vessel used in navigation, over 60 ton net register, propelled by machinery, except ships of war belonging to His Majesty or to any foreign government

3.-(1) No person shall receive on board, load on, work on or along side, or discharge from, any ship any cargo on Sunday except under and in accordance with a permit issued by the Harbour Master under this Ordinance.

(2) If any cargo is received, loaded, worked or dis- charged contrary to any of the provisions of sub-section (1), the master, and the owners, charterers (if any), and agents, of the ship in question shall, without prejudice to the criminal liability of themselves or of any other person, be deemed jointly and severally to have incurred a debt to the Crown, by way of forfeiture, equal to twice the amount of the Sunday permit fee which would have been payable under this Ordinance in respect of the ship in question.

4. It shall be lawful for the Governor in Council to made regulations for any of the following purposes:-

(a) providing the form of Sunday permits; (b) imposing obligations on the applicants for and holders of Sunday permits, and on the owners, charterers, agents, and masters, of ships on or from which cargo is received, loaded, worked or discharged on Sunday;

(c) prescribing the fees to be payable for Sunday

permits;

(d) any other purpose which the Governor in Council may consider desirable in order to restrict the receiving. loading, working or discharging of cargo on or from ships on Sunday;

(e) excluding any specified ship or class of ship

from the operation of the Ordinance.

(2) The fee shall not be payable if the holder of the Sunday permit satisfies the Harbour Master that no cargo was received on board, loaded or discharged, on or from the ship in question on the Sunday for which the permit was issued, and if the holder shall also have complied with all the provisions of this Ordinance and of any regulations made thereunder, so far as such provisions may relate to the Sunday permit in question.

7. Every person who contravenes any of the provi- Penalty. sions of this Ordinance or of any regulation made there- under shall upon summary conviction be liable to a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The First Schedule of the Sunday Cargo Working Ordinance, 1891, Ordinance No. 1 of 1891, contains the form of permit which must be used under the Ordi- nance. That form recites the previous payment of the permit fee. No power exists in the Ordinance to alter this form, so that it can be altered only by a new Ordi- nance Payment of the fee in advance is inconvenient because it frequently happens that a permit which has been taken out is not used. In such a case the holder of the permit is put to the trouble of applying for a refund of the fee, and the Harbour Department and Treasury are put to the trouble of making the refund. It was therefore proposed to pass an amending Ordi- nance so as to allow for the subsequent payment of the permit fee.

2. Under the present Ordinance a practice has grown up of returning an unused permit to the Harbour Office with an endorsement to the effect that the permit has not been used. This is for the purpose of claiming a refund of the fee. There.is, however, no penalty under the Ordinance for a false or incorrect endorsement of this kind. It was therefore proposed to include in the amending Ordinance the provision of a penalty for this purpose.

3. It was subsequently found that other amendments of the Ordinance were also desirable, on the following points :-

(a) Section 4 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1891, deals with the hours during which applications for Sunday permits may be made. This is a matter which would more properly be dealt with by regulation, if indeed it were necessary

2

599

to legislate for it at all. It is omitted both from the present bill and from the regulations in the First Schedule to the bill, because it is thought that the matter may be left to departmental arrangement.

(b) Section 6 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1891 gives power to make regulations, but that power is limited. It is enlarged in the bill. For example, power is given to the Governor in Council to exempt any specified vessel or class of ship from the operation of the Ordi-

nance.

(c) Section 7 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1891 provides a penalty for contraventions of section 3 of that Ordinance, but no penalty is provided for breaches of regulations made under the Ordi-

nance.

(d) The same section 7 makes "the agent and the consignee of such vessel" liable in the absence of the master. It fails to provide for the case where the ship has an owner in the Colony and no agent. Further the reference to the consignee of such vessel" is perhaps a mis- take, though a general consignee of a ship is not unknown.

(e) The same section 7 unnecessarily deals with the question of the term of imprisonment which may be imposed in default of payment of the fine, a matter. which is dealt with generally in section 57 of the Magistrates Ordinance, 1890.

(f) Section 8 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1891 provides unnecessarily for the case of persons who assist in contraventions of section 3 of the Ordinance. The question of aiders and abet- tors is dealt with generally by section 37 of the Magistrates Ordinance, 1890.

4. In view of these further points it was decided to repeal the present Ordinance and to re-enact it with variations. Most of these variations have been im- pliedly explained above.

66

""

5. The difficulty of bringing home to individuals any particular contravention of the Ordinance seems to call for some special remedy for the protection of the revenue. Clause 3 (2) of the bill, therefore, provides that if any cargo is worked on any ship contrary to the provisions of the Ordinance, the master, and the owners, charterers, (if any) and agents of the ship in question shall be deemed to have incurred a debt to the Crown equal to twice the amount of the Sunday permit fee for the ship in question. The reference in this sub-clause to forfeiture is inserted in order to made the debt in question recoverable by the pro- cedure laid down in Ordinance No. 6 of 1875. It is possible that section 7 of the present Ordinance makes master and agents liable criminally even in the absence of guilty knowledge, but it is considered that the case does not justify a provision of this exceptional nature, and that it is more appropriate to make the master, owners, etc., liable to pay double the usual permit fee if the Ordinance is contravened, on the ground that it is their duty to see that the revenue is not defrauded in a matter over which they have or should have con- trol.

6. Clause 6 of the bill lays down that the fee for any given Sunday permit must in general be paid within seven days after the date of issue, but it also provides that the fee shall not be payable if the holder satisfies the Harbour Master that no cargo was received on board, loaded, worked, or discharged, on or from the

600

-

ship in question on the Sunday for which the permit was issued, and if the holder shall also have complied with the law generally so far as it is relevent to the permit in question.

7. The bill proposes to repeal both Ordinance No. 1 of 1891 and the regulations now in force thereunder which appear on page 152 of the Regulations of Hong Kong, 1844-1925.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend further the Widows'

and Orphans' Pension Ordinance, 1908.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hong Kong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Widows' and Orphans' Pension Amendment Ordinance, 1929.

2. Section 3 (1) (c) of the Widows' and Orphans' Pension Ordinance, 1908, is amended by the deletion of the word "not" in the third line.

3. The amendment made by section 2 of this Ordi- nance shall for all purposes whatsoever be deemed to have been made immediately after the coming into operation of the proclamation of the Governor under section 8 (2) of the Ordinances of Hong Kong, 1884- 1923, Ordinance, 1923, which was published in the Gazette of the 19th September, 1924.

4. The following section is inserted in the Widows' and Orphans' Pension Ordinance, 1908, immediately after section 3 thereof :--

Contributors to other schemes.

3A.-(1) No officer shall be required to contribute under this Ordinance if, and for so long as, he is contributing to an approved scheme.

(2) For the purposes of this section an approved scheme means a scheme for the granting of pensions to the widows and children of Government officers, estab- lished in a British Colony or Protectorate or in British India or in any territory in respect of which a mandate is being exer- cised by the government of any part of His Majesty's dominions, which is declared by the Secretary of State to be an approved scheme for the purposes of this section.

601

(3) Any claim for exemption under this section must be in writing and must reach the Colonial Secretary within three months after the officer commences to draw salary from this Government.

(4) An officer who under this section has claimed exemption from becoming at contributor under this Ordinance may not subsequently become a contributor under this Ordinance unless either he ceases to contribute to the approved scheme, or he marries, or he leaves the service of this Government and is subsequently re-ap- pointed to it.

(5) Nothing in this section shall exempt an officer, who on appointment or re-ap- pointment to the service of this Govern- ment is already a contributor under the scheme, from continuing his contributions thereto.

(6) If an officer obtains exemption under this section, any contributions pre- viously made by him under this Ordinance shall be returned to him without interest.

5. Notwithstanding anything contained in section Temporary 4 of this Ordinance, a claim to exemption under provisions. section 3A of the Widows' and Orphans' Pension Ordinance, 1908, as enacted by this Ordinance, by Ordinance any officer who at the commencement of this Ordi- No. 15 of nance is liable to contribute under the Widows' and 1908. Orphans' Pension Ordinance, 1908, may be made within three months after the commencement of this Ordinance, or, if such officer is on leave at the com- mencement of this Ordinance, within three months after his return from leave.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 2 of this Ordinance will correct an obvious mistake in section 3 (1) (c) of the Widows' and Orphans' Pension Ordinance, 1908, Ordinance No. 15 of 1908. The Widows' and Orphans' Pension Scheme applies, generally speaking only to permanent officers, but in 1921 it was extended to persons appointed on an agreement for periods exceeding two years. Section 3 (1) (c) of the principal Ordinance in its present obviously incorrect form would make the Scheme apply to officers on agreement for periods not exceeding two years, while excluding officers on agreement for periods exceeding two years. mistake must have occurred in the printing of the pre- This sent revised edition, because the section appears correctly in the Law Revision Ordinance, 1924, Ordi- nance No. 5 of 1924, s. 36.

2. Section 3 makes this amendment retrospective, so as to date back to the time when the present revised edition of the Ordinances became the statute book for all purposes, because everyone has all along acted as if the word 66

"" not did not occur in the paragraph in question. The proclamation referred to is the procla- mation which brought the new revised edition into effect.

602

3. Section 4 inserts in the principal Ordinance a section dealing with the case of persons transferred to Hong Kong who are already contributing to a widows' and orphans' pension scheme in some other Colony. The new section provides that such an officer need not contribute to the Hong Kong scheme. It gives him. three months to claim exemption, the three months dating from the time when he commences to draw salary from this Government. The section applies only where the scheme to which the officer is already contributing is approved by the Secretary of State. The new section also provides that if an officer obtains exemption, any contributions previously made by him under the principal Ordinance shall be returned to him without interest. Some contributions might have been deducted while the officer's claim was being dealt with. The reference in sub-section 6 of the new section is to the obtaining of exemption because a claim would fail if the scheme in the other Colony were not approved by the Secretary of State. The new section is made to apply in the case of schemes in colonies, protectorates, mandated territories, and British India.

one

4. Section 5 of this Ordinance is a temporary pro- vision dealing with the case of officers who at present are liable to contribute under the principal Ordinance, but who will be entitled to claim exemption when this

· Ordinance becomes law. Such officers are given three months after the commencement of the Ordinance in which to claim exemption. Any such officers on leave at the commencement of this Ordinance will have three months after return from leave to claim exemption.

7. The lists of special jurors and common jurors brought into use on the 1st day of March, 1929, shall continue in force until the new lists which shall be settled in the year 1930 under the provisions of the Jury Ordinance, 1887, as amended by this Ordinance, shall have been brought into use.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 7 of the Jury Ordinance, 1887, Ordinance No. 6 of 1887, provides that the Special Jurors List and the Common Jurors List for any particular year must be brought into force on the 1st day of March, and there is no power to extend this date. The section also requires that the list of persons liable to serve as jurors must be posted up outside the Courts of Justice on or before the 1st day of February in each year, and there is also no power to extend this date. The section also requires the consideration of the jurors list by the Legislative Council in the second half of February. The rigidity of these provisions has caused inconvenience from time to time and has sometimes made very difficult a proper consideration of points arising on the lists. This amending bill gives the Governor power to extend the dates in question in case of necessity.

2. The Jury Ordinance, 1887, provides for the final settlement of the lists by the Legislative Council. The bill transfers this duty to the Governor in Council, who is considered to be the more suitable authority.

605

3. The Jury Ordinance, 1887, throws on the Legis- lative Council the whole duty of selecting the special jurors. The bill provides that the list of special jurors shall be compiled in the first instance by the Registrar. The Registrar will be guided as to the number of names to be included in the list of special jurors as the bill provides for a certain maximum. This maxi- mum may be altered by the Governor in Council from time to time. The list of special jurors will be finally settled by the Governor in Council, and in settling the list the Governor in Council will not be bound by any previous order made by him with regard to the maxi- mum number of names to be included.

4. As the date on which the two lists for any parti- cular year are to be brought into use is no longer rigidly fixed by Ordinance the bill provides that the lists brought into use in any particular year shall continue in force until the lists settled in the following year are brought into use.

5. The above changes are made by clauses 3 and 4 of the bill. Clause 7 of the bill is a temporary pro- vision to the effect that the lists brought into use on the 1st day of March, 1929, shall continue in force until the new lists settled in 1930 are brought into

use.

6. The bill amends the principal Ordinance in cer- tain other minor points also.

7. Clause 2 amends section 4 of the Jury Ordinance, 1887, on the two following points. In the first place it makes an addition to paragraph (2) which is in- tended to make it clear that members of the Hong Kong Police Reserve are not to be exempt from jury service. In the second place, it omits the reference to dissent in paragraph (8), because it has been objected that the word dissent is inappropriate where there is no established religion.

8. Section 10 of the Jury Ordinance, 1887, pro- vides, inter alia, that a jury panel must be drawn by the Deputy Registrar in the presence of the Registrar. This might be inconvenient, and accordingly clause 5 amends section 10 of the Jury Ordinance, 1887, by providing that the panel may be drawn either by the Registrar or by a Deputy Registrar.

The

9. Section 24 of the Jury Ordinance, 1887, pro- vides, inter alia, that if a jury has not returned its verdict before all the other cases for trial at the same session "have been disposed of and when it sufficiently appears" that the jury cannot agree, the jury is to be discharged and a new jury to be empanelled. word "session" is not entirely free from doubt, but even if it means only a day's sitting, a case may easily arise where it would be unnecessary to wait to the end of the day before being sure that the jury could not agree. Again, it may be doubtful when the point of time is reached which is described by the words of the section (when) all the other cases for trial at the same sitting or session have been disposed of". example, two cases might be down for hearing on a particular day and only one might be disposed of on that day, or neither case might be finished on that day. Accordingly clause 6 of the bill alters the word "or" to "and" in the passage quoted at the beginning of this paragraph. The result will be that the court will have power to discharge a jury at any time when satisfied that the jury cannot agree upon a verdict.

14.-(1) The amendments made in the Waterworks Retrospective

effect. Ordinance, 1903, by sections 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 of this Ordi- nance shall have effect in respect of all water supplied by No. 16 of

Ordinance

meter after the second quarter of 1929.

(2) Any regulation made under the Waterworks Ordi- nance, 1903, as amended by this Ordinance, may be made to take effect in respect of all or any water supplied by meter after the second quarter of 1929.

(3) In this section the word quarter with reference to any particular meter shall be construel as meaning the period between two consecutive readings of the meter in question as provided by any regulation made under the Waterworks Ordinance, 1903, for the purpose of calculating the quarterly consumption.

1903.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The main object of this Ordinance is to facilitate the temporary abolition of what is known as the "free allowance of water. The abolition of the 'free allowance" will actually be effected by regulation. The sole aim of this proposed legislation is to check consump- tion during the present very serious shortage of water

2. Section 2 (a) (ii) of the principal Ordinance refers to a quarterly allowance. This is the so-called "free allowance". Section 2 of this Ordinance substitutes the term quarterly amount because "allowance suggests the present

"free allowance" and that is to be abandoned temporarily.

66

""

3. The principal Ordinance refers in various places to the

"quarter". In practice this must mean the period between two consecutive meter readings as provided by

668

regulation 7 on page 339 of the Regulations of Hong Kong. It is obvious that the meters throughout the Colony cannot possibly be read on the same day, and the regulation in question provides that for the purpose of calculating the quarterly consu nption in any partienlar teuement the differences between two consecutive readings of the meter is to be taken. It also provides that the reading may be taken on any day not more than ten days before or after the calender date of the commencement of

the quarter. Accordingly, the meter reader's quarter for any particular tenement may be longer or shorter than the calendar quarter, but a longer quarter is always balanced later on by a shorter quarter because the last reading of any one quarter must be taken as the first reading of the succeeding quarter. Section 3 of this Ordinance inserts in the principal Ordinance a section which expressly recognises what may be called the meter reader's quarter. This same point recurs in section 14 (2) of this Ordi-

nance.

4. Section 3 of the principal Ordinance provides that the Water Authority shall have the administration of the waterworks subject to the general anthority of the Governor in Conncil. Section 4 provides that the officers appointed to carry out the Ordinance shall be under the control of the Water Authority subject to the general authority of the Governor. There seems to be no good reasou for making a distinction in these two sections in the matter of the ultimate authority. The Governor in Council is given special powers in particular sections of the Ordinance, but the natural controlling authority for general purposes is the Governor. Accordingly, the opportunity is taken to alter "Governor in Council" in section 3 of the principal Ordinance to "Governor ". This is effected by section 4 of this Ordinance.

5. Section 5 of this Ordinance amends, section 5 of the principal Ordinance so as to make the ordinary under- taking to pay for water apply to the amount which at present is comprised in the free allowance". This amendment is necessary even apart from the temporary abolition of the "free allowance", because even at pre- sent there are cases in which there is no "free allow- ance".

6. Section 6 of this Ordinance amends the regulation making section of the principal Ordinance in two ways. In the first place it abolishes the present maximum price for water supplied by meter. In the second place it gives the Governor in Council a wide power to make regulations for the purpose of controlling the persons who resort to the public fountains. For example, in a time of shortage such as the present, it may be desirable to assign parti- cular public fountains to particular blocks of buildings and to exclude persons from outside areas. It might also be desirable to introduce some system of rationing. It is also desirable to be able to give powers to police officers and others who may be stationed at public fountains.

7. Sections 7 to 13, both inclusive, of this Ordinance amends the various penalties under the principal Ordi- nance. Some of the penalties in the principal Ordinance appear to be too small. For example, the maximum penalty for wilful waste of water, however much water may have been wasted, is only $25. Again, the maximum penalty for negligently polluting the waterworks by "any foul liquid gas or other noxious or injurious matter is only $100, and even for wilful pollution of this nature the maximum is the same. In the second place, the maximum penalties seem to be unnecessarily varied.

                 The amending sections of this Ordinance make the maximum penalty in any case $250 which is now the standard maximum for summary offences. In the two cases where a daily penalty is provided in the principal Ordinance this Ordinance makes the maximum $25 a day.

8. Section 14 of this Ordinance gives power to make the temporary abolition of the "free allowance apply to the current quarter, and it makes it clear that what is meant is the current meter reader's quarter.

Objects and Reasons.

66

free

"free

1. The main object of this Ordinance is to facilitate the temporary abolition of what is known as the allowance of water. The abolition of the allowance" will actually be effected by regulation. The sole aim of this proposed legislation is to check consump- tion during the present very serious shortage of water.

2. Section 2 (a) (ii) of the principal Ordinance refers to a quarterly allowance. This is the so-called "free allowance". Section 2 of this Ordinance substitutes the

quarterly amount because the present

allowance "free allowance"

suggests and that is to be abandoned temporarily.

term

"6

""

3. The principal Ordinance refers in various places to the "

quarter". In practice this must mean the period between two consecutive meter readings as provided by

TOP

675

regulation 7 on page 339 of the Regulations of Hong Kong. It is obvious that the meters throughout the Colony cannot possibly be read on the same day, and the regulation in question provides that for the purpose of calculating the quarterly consumption in any particular tenement the differences between two consecutive readings of the meter is to be taken. It also provides that the reading may be taken on any day not more than ten days before or after the calender date of the commencement of the quarter. Accordingly, the meter reader's quarter for any particular tenement may be longer or shorter than the calendar quarter, but a longer quarter is always balanced later on by a shorter quarter because the last reading of any one quarter must be taken as the first reading of the succeeding quarter. Section 3 of this Ordinance inserts in the principal Ordinance a section which expressly recognises what may be called the meter reader's quarter. This same point recurs in section 14 (2) of this Ordi-

nance.

4. Section 3 of the principal Ordinance provides that the Water Authority shall have the administration of the waterworks subject to the general authority of the Governor in Council. Section 4 provides that the officers appointed to carry out the Ordinance shall be under the control of the Water Authority subject to the general authority of the Governor. There seems to be no good reason for making a distinction in these two sections in the matter of the ultimate authority. The Governor in Conneil is given special powers in particular sections of the Ordinance, but the natural controlling authority for general purposes is the Governor. Accordingly, the opportunity is taken to alter "Governor in Council" in section 3 of the principal Ordinance to "Governor". This is effected by section 4 of this Ordinance.

5. Section 5 of this Ordinance amends section 5 of the principal Ordinance so as to make the ordinary under- taking to pay for water apply to the amount which at present is comprised in the "free allowance". This amendment is necessary even apart from the temporary abolition of the "free allowance", because even at pre- sent there are cases in which there is no free allow- ance".

66

6. Section 6 of this Ordinance amends the regulation making section of the principal Ordinance in two ways. In the first place it abolishes the present maximum price for water supplied by meter. In the second place it gives the Governor in Council a wide power to make regulations for the purpose of controlling the persons who resort to the public fountains. For example, in a time of shortage such as the present, it may be desirable to assign parti- cular public fountains to particular blocks of buildings and to exclude persons from outside areas. It might also be desirable to introduce some system of rationing. It is also desirable to be able to give powers to police officers and others who may be stationed at public fountains.

7. Sections 7 to 13, both inclusive, of this Ordinance amends the various penalties under the principal Ordi- nance. Some of the penalties in the principal Ordinance appear to be too small. For example, the maximum penalty for wilful waste of water, however much water may have been wasted, is only $25. Again, the maximum penalty for negligently poliuting the waterworks by "any foul liquid gas or other noxious or injurious matter" is only $100, and even for wilful pollution of this nature the maximum is the same. In the second place, the maximum penalties seem to be unnecessarily varied. The amending sections of this Ordinance make the maximum penalty in any case $250 which is now the standard maximum for summary offences. In the two cases where a daily penalty is provided in the principal Ordinance this Ordinance makes the maximum $25 a day.

""

8. Section 14 of this Ordinance gives power to make the temporary abolition of the "free allowance apply to the current quarter, and it makes it clear that what is meant is the current meter reader's quarter.

of Ordinance No. 2 of

· --

or fraud" in the second line thereof, and by

the substitution therefor of the words "by any means ;

99

(b) by the insertion of the words "bona fide" immediately before the word "claimed" in the sixteenth and seventeenth lines thereof;

(c) by the renumbering of the said section as sub- section (1), and by the addition of the follow- ing sub-section :-

Ordinance No. 4 of 1897.

(2) for the purposes of this section, the adoptive parent of a child under the age of fourteen years, and the employer of a child under the age of fourteen years, in- cluding the employer of a mui tsai under the age of fourteen years, shall be deemed to have had the lawful care or charge of such child, provided as follows:-

as

(a) that nothing in this sub- section shall be construed affecting any rights vested in or conferred on the Secretary for Chinese Affairs by or under the Protection of Women and Girls Ordinance, 1897; and

as

(b) that nothing in this sub- section shall be construed conferring upon any adoptive parent or employer any right of retaining possession, custody or control of any child as against the child's parent or guardian, or as against the child.

3. The following section is inserted in the Offences Insertion against the Person Ordinance, 1865, immediately after of new section 45:-

Certain transactions with regard to minors prohibited.

section 45A in Ordinance No. 1 of

45A.-(1) Every person who takes any 1965 part. or attempts to take any part, in any transaction the object or one of the objects of which is to transfer or confer, wholly or partly, the possession, custody or control of any minor under the age of eighteen years for any valu- able consideration shall be deemed to be guilty of an offence against this section, unless such person proves beyond reasonable doubt that

713

the transaction was bona fide and solely for the purpose of a proposed marriage, or adoption, in accordance with Chinese custom,

(2) Every person shall be deemed to be guilty of an offence against this section who without lawful authority or excuse harbours or has in his possession, custody or control any minor under the age of eighteen years, if any person has, within or without the Colony, purported to transfer or confer the possession, custody or control, wholly or partly, of such minor for valuable consideration after the day of

1929.

(3) It shall be lawful for a magistrate to find the age of any minor brought before him with respect to whom an offence against this section is alleged, whether evidence of age be given or not.

(4) It shall be no defence to a charge under this section that the minor consented to the transaction, or that the minor received the consideration or any part thereof, or that the accused believed or had reasonable ground to believe that the minor was not under the age of eighteen years.

(5) Every person who is guilty of an offence against this section shall upon summary con- viction be liable to a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars and to imprisonment for any term not exceeding one year.

(6) Nothing in this section shall be con- strued as recognising in any way whatsoever the possibility that rights of possession, cus- tody or control over any person can be trans- ferred or conferred for valuable consideration for any purpose.

(7) No prosecution under this section shall be instituted without the consent of the Attorney General: Provided that such con- sent shall not be necessary for the arrest of any person suspected of having ommitted an offence against this section.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 45 of the Offences against the Person Ordi- nance, 1865, Ordinance No. 2 of 1865, makes it an offence to take away a child under fourteen, by force or fraud, with intent to deprive any parent, guardian, or other person having the lawful care or charge of the child or of the possession of such child. In cases where a mui tsai has been enticed away from her employer, and where the authorities have been satisfied that the motive of the kidnapper was not a benevolent one but the desire of gain, the prosecution have sometimes been met by the argument that the section does not apply because the mistress of a mui tsai cannot be considered as having the lawful care or charge of the child. The Government has been advised that this argument is not sound, and that, though the employer of a mui tsai has no right whatever of retaining possession of the girl as against the girl's parents or as against the girl herself, yet her care and charge of the child is not unlawful and may be treated as a lawful care and charge for the purpose of proceeding against the kidnapper. Unfortunately, so far as is known, no decision has ever been given by the courts on the above argument, because the case has always gone off on some other ground. No apprehension is felt by the Governn ent that the courts would hold the above defence to be a good one, but there appears to be an impression abroad that the defence is a good one, and some officers

714

may be under the impression that it would be useless to prosecute in such a case. The position is much the same with regard to adopted children. In order to dissipate this impression, and also to place the legal position beyond all possible doubt, it has been decided to amend the section so as to make the point clear. Accordingly, paragraph (e) of section 2 of this Ordinance provides that for the purpose of section 45 of the principal Ordinance, ¿.e., for the purpose of proceeding against the kidnapper, the adoptive parent of a child under fourteen and the employer of a child under fourteen, including the employer of a mui tsai under that age, shall be deemed to have had the lawful care or charge of the child. The paragraph also provides (a) that nothing in the sub-section in question is to be construed as affecting any rights of guardianship vested in the Secretary for Chinese Affairs, and (b) that nothing in the sub-section in question shall be construed as conferring on any adoptive parent or employer any right of retaining possession of a child as against the child's parent or guardian or as against the child.

2. The opportunity is taken of making two other amendments of the same section. One of these two amendments is affected by paragraph (") of section 2 of this Ordinance. Section 45 of the principal Ordinance at present reads "Every person who unlawfully, either by force or fraud, takes away any child". Some little difficulty has sometimes been felt about the words italicised above in the case of very young children where it can hardly be said that either force or fraud is necessary for the kidnapping. Accordingly paragraph (a) of section 2 of this Ordinance deletes the words "either by force or fraud and substitutes the words "by any means

99

64

3. The other amendment is made by paragraph (b) of section 2 of this Ordinance. Section 45 of the principal Ordinance at present provides that "no person who has claimed any right to the possession " of the child and no person who has claimed to be the father of an illegiti- mate child", shall be liable to prosecution on the ground of inving taken the child out of the lawful charge of some other person.

No doubt these words refer to bona fide claims but it has been thought better to provide expressly that the claims must be bona fide.

4. Section 3 of this Ordinance is an attempt to legislate for a matter which has been discussed off and on for fifty years. The section makes it an offence to take any part in any transaction the object of which is to transfer the possession of any minor under eighteen for any valuable consideration, unless the accusel can prove that t'i trans- action was bora fide ani solely for a purpose of a pro- posed marriage or adoption accordance with Chinese custom, The section also makes it an offence to be in possession, without lawful authority or excuse, of any such minor who has been so dealt with after the commence- ment of this Ordinance, whether such minor was so dealt with within or without the Colony. An offender against the section may be sentenced to a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars or to imprisonment for any term not exceeding one year, or to both such fine and such impri- sonment. No prosecution can be instituted without the consent of the Attorney General.

5. The section also contains three subsidiary provisions as follows:

-

66

(a) It empowers the magistrate to find

the age

of the minor whether evidence of age be given

or not.

(b) It provides that it shall be no defence to a charge under the section that the minor consented to the transaction, or that the minor received the consi- deration or any part thereof, or that the accused believed or had reasonable ground to believe that the minor was not under the age of eighteen.

(c) The section also provides that nothing in it is to be considered as recognising in any way whatso- ever the possibility that rights of possession, custody or control over any person can be trans- ferred or conferred for valuable consideration for

any purpose.

Amendment

of Ordinance No. 2 of 1865, s. 45.

Insertion

of new section 45A in Ordinance No. 1 of 1865.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Offences against

the Person Ordinance, 1865.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hong Kong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Offences against the Person Amendment Ordinance, 1929.

2. Section 45 of the Offences against the Person Ordi- nauce, 1865, is amended as follows:

(a) by the deletion of the words "either by force or frand" in the second line thereof, and by the substitution therefor of the words "by any

means ;

99

(b) by the insertion of the words "bonâ fide" immediately before the word "claimed" in the sixteenth and seventeenth lines thereof;

(e) by the renumbering of the said section as sub- section (1), and by the addition of the follow- ing sub-section :--

Ordinance No. 4 of

1897.

(2) for the purposes of this section, the adoptive parent of a child under the age of fourteen years, and the employer of a child under the age of fourteen years, in- cluding the employer of a mui tsai under the age of fourteen years, shall be deemed to have had the lawful care or charge of such child, provided as follows :-

(a) that nothing in this sub- section shall be construed as affecting any rights vested in or conferred on the Secretary for Chinese Affairs by or under the Protection of Women and Girls Ordinance, 1897; and

(b) that nothing in this sub- section shall be construed 208 conferring upon any adoptive parent or employer any right of retaining possession, custody or control of any child as against the child's parent or guardian, or as against the child.

3. The following section is inserted in the Offences against the Person Ordinance, 1865, immediately after section 45:-

Cortain transactions with regard to minors prohibited.

45A.-(1) Every person who takes any part, or attempts to take any part, in any transaction the object or one of the objects of which is to transfer or coufer, wholly or partly, the possession, custody or control of any minor under the age of eighteen years for any valu- able consideration shall be deemed to be guilty of an offence against this section, unless such person proves beyond reasonable doubt that

791

the transaction was bona fide and solely for the purpose of a proposed marriage, or adoption, in accordance with Chinese custom.

(2) Every person shall be deemed to be guilty of an offence against this section who without lawful authority or excuse harbours or has in his possession, custody or control any minor under the age of eighteen years, if any person has, within or without the Colony, purported to transfer or confer the possession, custody or control, wholly or partly, of such minor for valuable consideration after the 6th day of September, 1929.

(3) It shall be lawful for a magistrate to find the ago of any minor brought before him with respect to whom an offence against this section is alleged, whether evidence of age be given or not.

(4) It shall be no defence to a charge under this section that the minor consented to the transaction, or that the minor received the consideration or any part thereof, or that the accused believed or had reasonable ground to believe that the minor was not under the age of eighteen years.

(5) Every person who is guilty of an offence against this section shall upon summary con- viction be liable to a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars and to imprisonment for any term not exceeding one year.

(6) Nothing in this section shall be con- strued as recognising in any way whatsoever the possibility that rights of possession, cus- tody or control over any person can be trans- ferred or conferred for valuable consideration for any purpose.

(7) No prosecution under this section shall be instituted without the consent of the Attorney General : Provided that such con- sent shall not be necessary for the arrest of any person suspected of having ommitted an offence against this section.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 45 of the Offences against the Person Ordi- nanec, 1865, Ordinance No. 2 of 1865, makes it an offence to take away a child under fourteen, by force or fraud, with intent to deprive any parent, guardian, or other person having the lawful care or charge of the child or of the possession of such child. In cases where a mui tsai has been enticed away from her employer, and where the authorities have been satisfied that the motive of the kidnapper was not a benevolent one but the desire of gain, the prosecution have sometimes been met by the argument that the section does not apply because the mistress of a mui tsai cannot be considered as having the lawful care or charge of the child. The Government has been advised that this argument is not sound, and that, though the employer of a mui tsai has no right whatever of retaining possession of the girl as against the girl's parents or as against the girl herself, yet her care and charge of the child is not unlawful and may be treated as a lawful care and charge for the purpose of proceeding against the kidnapper. Unfortunately, so far as is known, no decision has ever been given by the courts on the above argument, because the case has always gone off on some other ground. No apprehension is felt by the Government that the courts would hold the above defence to be a good one, but there appears to be an impression abroad that the defence is a good one, and some officers

792

may be under the impression that it would be useless to prosecute in such a case. The position is much the same with regard to adopted children. In order to dissipate this impression, and also to place the legal position beyond all possible doubt, it has been decided to amend the section so as to make the point clear. Accordingly, paragraph (e) of section 2 of this Ordinance provides that for the purpose of section 45 of the principal Ordinance, ¿.e., for the purpose of proceeding against the kidnapper, the adoptive parent of a child under fourteen, and the employer of a child under fourteen, including the employer of a mui tsai under that age, shall be deemed to have had the lawful care or charge of the child. The paragraph also provides (a) that nothing in the sub-section in question is to be construed as affecting any rights of guardianship vested in the Secretary for Chinese Affairs, and (b) that nothing in the sub-section in question shall be construed as conferring on any adoptive parent or employer any right of retaining possession of a child as against the child's parent or guardian or as against the child.

2. The opportunity is taken of making two other amendments of the same section. One of these two amendments is affected by paragraph (a) of section 2 of this Ordinance. Section 45 of the principal Ordinance at present reads "Every person who unlawfully, either by force or fraud, takes away any child". Some little difficulty has sometimes been felt about the words italicised above in the case of very young children where it can hardly be said that either force or fraud is necessary for the kidnapping. Accordingly paragraph (a) of section 2 of this Ordinance deletes the words "either by force or fraud" and substitutes the words " by any means".

3. The other amendment is made by paragraph (b) of section 2 of this Ordinance. Section 45 of the principal Ordinance at present provides that " no person who has claimed any right to the possession " of the child and no person who has claimed to be the father of an illegiti- mate child", shall be liable to prosecution on the ground of having taken the child out of the lawful charge of some other person.

No doubt these words refer to bona fide claims but it has been thought better to provide expressly that the claims must be bona fide.

4. Section 3 of this Ordinance is an attempt to legislate for a matter which has been discussed off and on for fifty years. The section makes it an offence to take any part in any transaction the object of which is to transfer the possession of any minor under eighteen for any valuable consideration, unless the accused can prove that the trans- action was bona fide and solely for a purpose of a pro- posed marriage or adoption in accordance with Chinese custom. The section also makes it an offence to be in possession, without lawful authority or excuse, of any such minor who has been so dealt with after the commence- ment of this Ordinance, whether such minor was so dealt with within or without the Colony. An offender against the section may be sentenced to a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars or to imprisonment for any term not exceeding one year, or to both such fine and such impri- sonment. No prosecution can be instituted without the consent of the Attorney General,

5. The section also contains three subsidiary provisions as follows:

the

(a) It empowers the magistrate to

"find

age of the minor whether evidence of age be given

or not.

(6). It provides that it shall be no defence to a charge under the section that the minor consented to the transaction, or that the minor received the consi- deration or any part thereof, or that the accused believed or had reasonable ground to believe that the minor was not under the age of eighteen.

793

(c) The section also provides that nothing in it is to be considered as recognising in any way whatso- ever the possibility that rights of possession, custody or control over any person can be trans- ferred or conferred for valuable consideration for

any purpose.

C.S.O. 2573/20.

[No. 21-5.9.29.-1.]

A BILL

Short title.

Repeal of Ordinance No. 9 of 1921, s. 12 and substitu- tion of new section.

Effect of

proclamations already made.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Maintenance Orders (Facilities for Enforcement) Ordi- nance, 1921.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hong Kong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Maintenance Orders (Facilities for Enforcement) Amendment Ordi- nance, 1929.

2. Section 12 of the Maintenance Orders (Facilities for Enforcement) Ordinance, 1921, is repealed and the following section is substituted therefor :-

12. Where the Governor is satisfied that recipro- cal provisions have been made by the legislature of any British possession or any territory under His Majesty's protection for the enforcement within such possession or territory of maintenance orders made by courts in Hong Kong, the Governor may by procla- mation extend this Ordinance to such possession or territory, and this Ordinance shall thereupon apply in respect of such possession or territory as though the references to England or Ireland were references to such possession or territory and the references to the Secretary of State for the Colonies were references to the Governor of such possession or territory.

3. Every proclamation which has been made by the Governor under the section repealed by this Ordinance shall from the coming into operation of this Ordinance have the same effect as if it had been made under the section substituted therefor by this Ordinance.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The original Ordinance No. 9 of 1921, was enacted to make the necessary provision for the enforcement in this Colony of maintenance orders made in England and Ireland, and to obtain reciprocal treatment in England and Ireland for maintenance orders made in this Colony. The Maintenance Orders (Facilities for Enforcement) Act, 1920, was thereupon extended to the Colony of Hong Kong by the Order of His Majesty in Council dated the 11th day of October, 1921. The original Ordinance was an ended under instructions from the Secretary of State, a new section 12 being added to the original Ordinance by

Ordinance No. 3 of 1923. That section empowers the Governor to extend the original Ordinance to maintenance orders made by courts in any British possession or protec- torate if he is satisfied on the point of reciprocity. The amending Ordinance, however, failed to adapt the original

1

#

815

Ordinance completely to this new class of case. The main results of this omission are as follows:-

(a) Certified copies of orders which have to be for- warded must, in general, be forwarded through the Secretary of State, however near to Hong Kong the other British possession may be see for example section 3 of Ordinance No. 9 of 1921.

:

(b) There is no power to make in absentia a provi- sional maintenance order against a person resi- dent anywhere except in England or Ireland : see section 5 (1) of Ordinance No. 9 of 1921. (c) There is no provision for the admissibility of depositions taken, or documents signed, anywhere except in England or Ireland: see sections 9 and 10 of Ordinance No. 9 of 1921.

The object of the present bill is to remedy these defects. It proposes to insert in the principal Ordinance in place of the present section 12 a new section which will provide that where the Governor is satisfied that reciprocal provi- sions have been made by any British possession or protec- torate for the enforcement of maintenance orders made in Hong Kong he may extend the principal Ordinance to such possession or protectorate and that thereupon the Ordinance shall apply as though the references to England or Ireland were references to such possession or protecto- rate and the references to the Secretary of State for the Colonies were references to the Governor of such posses- sion or protector: te The draft of this part of the new section 12 was supplied by the Secretary of State.

2. Section 3 of this Ordinance is intended to give pro- clamations already made under the present section 12 the same effect as if they had been made under the new section

C.S.O. 2573/20.

[No. 21-5.9.29.-1.]

A BILL

Short title.

Repeal of Ordinance No. 9 of 1921, s. 12 and substitu- tion of new section.

Effect of

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Maintenance Orders (Facilities for Enforcement) Ordi- nance, 1921.

Be it enacted by the Governor of Hong Kong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Maintenance Orders (Facilities for Enforcement) Amendment Ordi- nance, 1929.

2. Section 12 of the Maintenance Orders (Facilities for Enforcement) Ordinance, 1921, is repealed and the following section is substituted therefor :-

12. Where the Governor is satisfied that recipro- cal provisions have been made by the legislature of any British possession or any territory under His Majesty's protection for the enforcement within such possession or territory of maintenance orders made by courts in Hong Kong, the Governor may by procla- mation extend this Ordinance to such possession or territory, and this Ordinance shall thereupon apply in respect of such possession or territory as though the references to England or Ireland were references to such possession or territory and the references to the Secretary of State for the Colonies were references to the Governor of such possession or territory.

3. Every proclamation which has been made by the proclamations Governor under the section repealed by this Ordinance already made. shall from the coming into operation of this Ordinance have the same effect as if it had been made under the section substituted therefor by this Ordinance.

Objects and Reasons.

The

1. The original Ordinance No. 9 of 1921, was enacted to make the necessary provision for the enforcement in this Colony of maintenance orders made in England and Ireland, and to obtain reciprocal treatment in England and Ireland for maintenance orders made in this Colony. Maintenance Orders (Facilities for Enforcement) Act, 1920, was thereupon extended to the Colony of Hong Kong by the Order of His Majesty in Council dated the 11th day of October, 1921. The original Ordinance was amended under instructions from the Secretary of State, a new section 12 being added to the original Ordinance by Ordinance No. 3 of 1923. That section empowers the Governor to extend the original Ordinance to maintenance orders made by courts in any British possession or protec- torate if he is satisfied on the point of reciprocity. The amending Ordinance, nowever, failed to adapt the original

833

Ordinance completely to this new class of case. The main results of this omission are as follows :-

(a) Certified copies of orders which have to be for- warded must, in general, be forwarded through the Secretary of State, however near to Hong Kong the other British possession may be see for example section 3 of Ordinance No. 9 of 1921.

(b) There is no power to make in absentia a provi- sional maintenance order against a person resi- dent anywhere except in England or Ireland: see section 5 (1) of Ordinance No. 9 of 1921.

(c) There is no provision for the admissibility of depositions taken, or documents signed, anywhere except in England or Ireland: see sections 9 and 10 of Ordinance No. 9 of 1921.

The object of the present bill is to remedy these defects. It proposes to insert in the principal Ordinance in place of the present section 12 a new section which will provide that where the Governor is satisfied that reciprocal provi- sions have been made by any British possession or protec- torate for the enforcement of maintenance orders made in Hong Kong he may extend the principal Ordinance to such possession or protectorate and that thereupon the Ordinance shall apply as though the references to England or Ireland were references to such possession or protecto- rate and the references to the Secretary of State for the Colonies were references to the Governor of such posses- sion or protectorate The draft of this part of the new section 12 was supplied by the Secretary of State.

2. Section 3 of this Ordinance is intended to give pro- clamations already made under the present section 12 the same effect as if they had been made under the new section

12.

An Ordinance to amend further the Distress

for Rent Ordinance, 1883.

Power to

Schedules.

43. It shall be lawful for the Governor in Council to amend the Schedules in any manner whatsoever.

Objects and Reasons.

The First Schedule to the Distress for Rent Ordi- nance, 1883, Ordinance No. 1 of 1883, provides that where watchmen are kept in charge of property dis- trained 50 cents per day must be paid per man by the landlord. At the present day it is impossible to secure suitable watchmen for less than 60 cents a day. There is no power in the Ordinance to amend the Schedules. This Ordinance inserts in the principal Ordinance a section giving the Governor in Council power to alter either of the Schedules in any manner whatsoever.

Commence- ment.

15. This Ordinance shall come into force on the 1st day of January, 1930.

Objects and Reasons

1. The titles of the superior officers of the Police Force are about to be altered, and a new office of deputy to the chief officer of the force is about to be created. This will involve various amendments of the Police Force Ordinance, 1900, Ordinance No. 11 of 1900.

             The new titles will be Inspector General of Police, Deputy Inspector General of Police (the new post), and Divisional Superin- tendents. Sections 2, 3, 4, 9 and 13 of this Ordinance introduce the new titles into various sections of the principal Ordinance.

2. Section 5 gives statutory recognition to the practice of having a probationary period for police recruits, and provides that such probationary officers may be dis- charged during their probationary period if they prove unsatisfactory.

3. Section 6 of this Ordinance gives the Governor power to grant free passages in special cases before the completion of the ordinary statutory period of service.

4. Section 17 of the principal Ordinance gives the Governor in Council power to regulate the granting of pensions to members of the Police Force. By virtue of section 3 of the principal Ordinance the term "Police Force" includes, inter alios, the superior officers of the force. The pensions of these officers are in fact regulated by the general Pension Minutes, and not by any police pension regulations. The same remark applies to the civilian staff of the Police Force. In their case section 17A of the principal Ordinance expressly provides that they shall come under the general Pension Minutes. There is no such provision with regard to the superior officers of the force and there is no regulation on the subject of their pensions. It seems desirable to deal with their case in the same way as that of the civilian staff. Accordingly section 7 of this Ordinance includes in section 17A of the principal Ordinance reference to the superior officers of the force.

5. Section 8 of this Ordinance repeals the three sections. of the principal Ordinance which deal with the making of regulations and departmental orders, and substitutes one simplified section. The existing sectious distinguish, though not very clearly, between two kinds of rules, i.e., regulations and departmental orders. Regulations are made by the Captain Superintendent of Police with the approval of the Governor in Council. Departmental orders are made by the Captain Superintendent of Police without reference to the Governor but subject to the Governor's subsequent disapproval. Regulations must be published in the Gazette in order to be valid. Depart- mental orders need not be published in the Gazette. line of demarcation between regulations and departmental orders is not clear. Questions may therefore arise at any time as to the strict legal validity of such regulations and departmental orders. The proposed new section will give the entire power of making regulations to the Inspector General of Police, and all regulations will be of the one class. These regulations will not require to be published in the Gazette, but will appear in Police General Orders. As required by the new section, these regulations will be

The

839

circulated to the members of the Executive Council, and the Governor in Council will have power to rescind such It seems regulations or to amend them in any manner. unnecessary to publish such regulations in the Gazette as very few of them affect the public. None of them will impose any obligation on the public. If any member of the public ever has occasion to inquire into the existence of any particular regulation he will always be able to make inquiry from the superior officers of the police force.

6. Section 10 of this Ordinance substitutes a new sub- section for sub-section (2) of section 26 of the principal Ordinance. That sub-section is open to certain minor objections. It deals with the question of taking bail by officers in charge of police stations. In the first place, on a strict reading, it enables the police officer to take bail In only "if no magistrate is in attendance at bis office". the second place, it provides that the recognizance must require the attendance of the accused at "the earliest time then next after when a magistrate will be in attendance at his office". In the third place, the sub-section contains no provision to the effect that a prisoner who is not bailed out must be brought before a magistrate as soon as practi- cable. This last provision does occur in section 27 of the Magistrates Ordinance, 1890, Ordinance No. 3 of 1890, but it is convenient to have it in the Police Force The new Ordinance, in the section dealing with bail. sub-section meets the above objections. It is practically a copy of section 22 of the Criminal Justice Administra- tion Act, 1914, 4 & 5 Geo. 5, c. 58.

7. Section 11 of this Ordinance adds to section 26 of the principal Ordinance a new sub-section which is taken from section 45 of the Criminal Justice Act, 1925, 15 & 16 Geo. 5, c. 86. It provides that if a prisoner is brought to a police station, and the officer in charge considers that the inquiry into the case cannot be completed forthwith, that officer may discharge the prisoner upon his entering into a recognizance to appear at such police station and at such time as is named in the recogizance.

8. Section 12 of this Ordinance inserts in the principal Ordinance a new section 25A which is based on section 44 of the Criminal Justice Act, 1925. It provides that a warrant of arrest may be lawfully executed by any officer of police notwithstanding that the warrant is not in his possession at the time. This provision is not necessary in Hong Kong in the case of offences against Hong Kong law, because the police have a general power of arrest without warrant, but it may be useful in such cases as extradition and deportation.

9. Section 14 of this Ordinance is the usual section providing for the general substitution of "Inspector General of Police" for "Captain Superintendent of Police" in all enactments, contracts and other documents where such substitution is necessary in order to give effect thereto.

66

15. This Ordinance shall come into force on the 1st day of January, 1930.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The titles of the superior officers of the Police Force are about to be altered, and a new office of deputy to the chief officer of the force is about to be created. This will involve various amendments of the Police Force Ordinance, 1900, Ordinance No. 11 of 1900. The new titles will be Inspector General of Police, Deputy Inspector General of Police (the new post), and Divisional Superin- tendents. Sections 2, 3, 4, 9 and 13 of this Ordinance introduce the new titles into various sections of the principal Ordinance.

2. Section 5 gives statutory recognition to the practice of having a probationary period for police recruits, and provides that such probationary officers may be dis- charged during their probationary period if they prove unsatisfactory.

3. Section 6 of this Ordinance gives the Governor power to grant free passages in special cases before the completion of the ordinary statutory period of service.

4. Section 17 of the principal Ordinance gives the Governor in Council power to regulate the granting of pensions to members of the Police Force. By virtue of section 3 of the principal Ordinance the term "Police Force" includes, inter alios, the superior officers of the force. The pensions of these officers are in fact regulated by the general Pension Minutes, and not by any police pension regulations. The same remark applies to the civilian staff of the Police Force. In their case section 17A of the principal Ordinance expressly provides that they shall come under the general Pension Minutes. There is no such provision with regard to the superior officers of the force and there is no regulation on the subject of their pensions. It seems desirable to deal with their case in the same way as that of the civilian staff. Accordingly section 7 of this Ordinance includes in section 17A of the principal Ordinance reference to the superior officers of the force.

5. Section 8 of this Ordinance repeals the three sections of the principal Ordinance which deal with the making of regulations and departmental orders, and substitutes one simplified section. The existing sections distinguish, though not very clearly, between two kinds of rules, i.e., regulations and departmental orders. Regulations are made by the Captain Superintendent of Police with the approval of the Governor in Council. Departmental orders are made by the Captain Superintendent of Police without reference to the Governor but subject to the Governor's subsequent disapproval. Regulations must be published in the Gazette in order to be valid. Depart- mental orders need not be published in the Gazette. The line of demarcation between regulations and departmental orders is not clear. Questions may therefore arise at any time as to the strict legal validity of such regulations and departmental orders. The proposed new section will give the entire power of making regulations to the Inspector General of Police, and all regulations will be of the one class. These regulations will not require to be published in the Gazette, but will appear in Police General Orders. As required by the new section, these regulations will be

861

circulated to the members of the Executive Council, and the Governor in Council will have power to rescind such regulations or to amend them in any manner. It seems unnecessary to publish such regulations in the Gazette as very few of them affect the public. None of them will impose any obligation on the public. If any member of the public ever has occasion to inquire into the existence of any particular regulation he will always be able to make inquiry from the superior officers of the police force.

In

6. Section 10 of this Ordinance substitutes a new sub- section for sub-section (2) of section 26 of the principal Ordinance. That sub-section is open to certain minor objections. It deals with the question of taking bail by officers in charge of police stations. In the first place, on a strict reading, it enables the police officer to take bail only "if no magistrate is in attendance at his office". the second place, it provides that the recognizance must require the attendance of the accused at "the earliest time then next after when a magistrate will be in attendance at his office". In the third place, the sub-section contains no provision to the effect that a prisoner who is not bailed out must be brought before a magistrate as soon as practi- cable. This last provision does occur in section 27 of the Magistrates Ordinance, 1890, Ordinance No. 3 of 1890, but it is convenient to have it in the Police Force Ordinance, in the section dealing with bail. The new sub-section meets the above objections. It is practically a copy of section 22 of the Criminal Justice Administra- tion Act, 1914, 4 & 5 Geo. 5, c. 58.

7. Section 11 of this Ordinance adds to section 26 of the principal Ordinance a new sub-section which is taken from section 45 of the Criminal Justice Act, 1925, 15 & 16 Geo. 5, c. 86. It provides that if a prisoner is brought. to a police station, and the officer in charge considers that the inquiry into the case cannot be completed forthwith, that officer may discharge the prisoner upon his entering into a recognizance to appear at such police station and at such time as is named in the recogizance.

8. Section 12 of this Ordinance inserts in the principal Ordinance a new section 26 A which is based on section 44 of the Criminal Justice Act, 1925. It provides that a warrant of arrest may be lawfully executed by any officer of police notwithstanding that the warrant is not in his possession at the time. This provision is not necessary in Hong Kong in the case of offences against Hong Kong law, because the police have a general power of arrest without warrant, but it may be useful in such cases as extradition and deportation.

9. Section 14 of this Ordinance is the usual section providing for the general substitution of "Inspector General of Police" for "Captain Superintendent of Police" in all enactments, contracts and other documents where such substitution is necessary in order to give effect thereto.

(5) Every person who contravenes any of the provisions of this section shall upon summary conviction be liable to a fine not exceeding five hundred dollars and to imprisonment for any term not exceeding six months.

Objects and Reasons.

1. This Ordinance proposes to make various altera- tions in the Protection of Women and Girls Ordi- nance, 1897, Ordinance No. 4 of 1897, some with a view to strengthening the hands of the authorities in dealing with the traffic in women and girls, and some in order to get rid of certain difficulties, explained below, which exist at present in our legislation.

2. Section 2 of this Ordinance amends section 3 of the principal Ordinance so as to make paragraph (4) of the latter section more complete. At present that paragraph contains correlative provisions, applicable to the two parties to the transaction, in three cases, i... sale, pledge and hire, but " disposal" has no correlative. The amendment now to be made adds a reference to obtaining possession, as a correlative to disposal.

905

3. Section 3 of this Ordinance inserts a new section 3A in the principal Ordinance. This new section takes one defence away from the defendant to any charge under section 3 of the principal Ordinance, as it provides that it shall be no defence to any charge. under that section that the woman and girl in question consented to the transaction or received any part of the consideration.

It is

4. It has been suggested that a possible defence to a charge of harbouring under section 18 of Ordinance No. 4 of 1897 would be that the accused was the person who had taken the girl out of the possession of the person having the lawful care of her, and that harbouring and taking are mutually exclusive. not to be supposed that the accused would expressly admit the suggested fact, but it would be argued that the evidence for the prosecution would naturally lead to that conclusion. On the other hand, it is just possible that the evidence of the prosecution would not be sufficient to discharge the onus of proof of a charge. of taking under section 26 of the Ordinance, because under that section practically the whole onus is on the prosecution, whereas under section 18 a consider- able onus is thrown on the defendant. Accordingly, section 4 of this Ordinance amends section 18 of the principal Ordinance so as to make it clear at the person who abducts or imports may be convicted of harbouring. The opportunity is taken of expanding the word "harbour" into "

into harbour, detain or have under control ".

5. Section 32 of the Protection of Women and Girls Ordinance, 1897, Ordinance No. 4 of 1897, had a curious history in the five Women and Girls Ordi- nances enacted between 1889, the year in which the section first occurred, and 1897, and in its present form it is not quite satisfactory, especially in view of the provisions of the Female Domestic Service Ordi- nance, 1923, Ördinance No. 1 of 1923. Section 5 of this Ordinance proposes to substitute a new form of the section.

6. In the first place, the present section negatives in undesirably wide terms the right of a parent to the custody of a girl where the parent has parted with the girl for the purpose of adoption into another family, or has received money for parting with the custody of the girl for any purpose. The proposed new sec- tion 32 does not expressly negative any right on the part of the parent, but merely vests the guardianship of the girl in such a case in the Secretary for Chinese Affairs. It empowers the Secretary for Chinese Affairs as legal guardian to make any order regarding the custody of the girl which he may think desirable in her interests, subject to one qualification which is referred to below. In making any such order the Secretary for Chinese Affairs would no doubt give full weight to the natural and moral claim of the parent to the custody of the girl. Thus, the Secretary for Chinese Affairs will still have the full rights of a legal guardian, but there will be no provision to suggest that the natural claims of the parent have been extinguished. Further, there will be nothing to suggest that the parent could not successfully assert a claim as against a third party to the custody of the girl if the Secretary for Chinese Affairs were not to exercise his legal right of guardianship.

906

7. In the second place, the present section appears to give the Secretary for Chinese Affairs the full and unfettered right of a legal guardian. Section 10 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1923, however, considerably limits his right to refuse to restore a girl who is a mui tsai to the custody of her parent or natural guardian. There is a distinct conflict here between the two Ordi- nances. No doubt the later Ordinance would prevail, but it is advisable to make that position quite clear. Accordingly, the proposed new section 32 provides that the rights of the Secretary for Chinese Affairs as legal guardian shall be subject to the provisions of section 10 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1923. That section provides that any mui tsai who wishes to be restored to the custody of her parent or natural guardian, and any mui tsai under eighteen whose parent or natura! guardian wishes such mui tsai to be restored to his or her custody, shall be restored to such custody unless the Secretary for Chinese Affairs sees some grave objection in the interest of such mui tsai to such restoration.

8. In the third place, it might be argued that the declaratory clause of Ordinance No. 1 of 1923, i.e., section 2, negatives the right of guardianship conferred on the Secretary for Chinese Affairs by section 32 of Ordinance No. 4 of 1897. Reasons are given in the Objects and Reasons attached to the Female Domestic Service Amendment Bill for suggesting that the con- flict here is only apparent, but it has been thought better to make the matter quite clear, and this is being done by means of a new section 23 which the above bill proposes to insert in Ordinance No. 1 of 1923. That new section will provide that nothing in Ordi- nance No. 1 of 1923 is to affect any right of guardian- ship vested in the Secretary for Chinese Affairs under Ordinance No. 4 of 1897, or to be vested in him under Ordinance No. 4 of 1897 as amended by this Ordi-

nance.

9. Section 39 of the principal Ordinance gives to the Secretary for Chinese Affairs, and any officer authorised for that purpose by him in writing, power to search any vessel or place where he has reasonable cause to sus- pect that there is any woman or girl who may be liable to be dealt with under the Ordinance, or in which he has reasonable cause to suspect that an offence against the Ordinance is being committed. It also gives power to search for the purpose of ascertaining whether there is in any vessel or place any woman or girl who may be liable to be dealt with under the Ordinance, or for the purposes of ascertaining whether any offence against the Ordinance is being committed there. The section gives power to remove and detain the woman or girl, but it gives no power to arrest, and it gives no power to seize documents or other articles which may be evidence of an offence. It also fails to make it an offence to obstruct any such search. Section 6 of this Ordinance substitutes a new section 39 which will remedy the above defects. The new section also give to the Secretary for Chinese Affairs, and to the antho- rised officer, the right to put questions to persons found in any vessel or place searched under the sections and it requires such persons to answer such questions, truthfully, and to obey any order given connected with the search. It also makes it an offence to force or induce a woman or girl who is liable to be dealt with under the Ordinance to conceal herself, or to escape, with a view to evading or obstructing the search. This section is adapted from section 19 of Enactment No. 2 of 1914 of the Eractments of the Federated Malay States, as amended by Enactment No. 21 of 1925. It will be noticed that sub-section (1) of section 39 of the principal Ordinance disappears, because all the neces- sary power seems to be given under sub-section (2) of that section, which appears in the new soon as sub- section (1), with slight alterations.

Amendment

of Ordinance No. 22 of 1922, s. 5.

Objects and Reasons.

1. This Ordinance is intended to be a further step in the improvement of factory conditions in the Colony. Such improvement must be slow and gradual, and it is very difficult in such matters to travel far ahead of neighbouring countries.

2. The main object of this Ordinance is to include. women and young persons within the scope of the prin- cipal Ordinance, No. 22 of 1922. A young person is defined as any person of or over the age of fifteen years and under the age of eighteen years.

3. Paragraph (c) of section 6 of this Ordinance adds to the principal Ordinance a new sub-section 4 (3) which gives the Protector of Labour, and any inspector of labour, power to remove and detain in a suitable place for inquiries any young person or child found in any factory, etc., in which the Protector or inspector has reasonable cause to suspect that some offence against the Ordinance has been committed. Without some provision of this kind it would be difficult to investigate a suspected offence, and it might be very difficult to prove the offence if it had been committed. It is obvious that if the child or young person in question were the chief or the only witness of the offence there would be a great temptation in the mind of the offender to cause the disappearance of that witness, and this would be comparatively easy in the case of a child or young person. The detention would be in the interest of the child or young person, and in the interests of children and young persons employed in factories gene- rally. It would be for as short a time as possible.

4. A set of draft regulations proposed to be made when the bill is passed, is published simultaneously with the bill. These regulations make the following provisions :-

(a) Lead processes and manufacture of vermilion are added to the list of dangerous trades. (b) The employment of young persons in dangerous

trades is prohibited.

(c) The employment of women in dangerous trades without the special permission of the Protector of Labour is prohibited. It is proposed to allow the employment of women in fire cracker factories.

(d) The employment of women and young persons between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. is prohibited.

Addition of new sections 20, 21, 22 and 23 to Ordinance

20. In any prosecution under section it shall be lawful for the magistrate to No. 1 of convict of common assault if he finds that 1923. an assault was committed but does not find that the girl in question was a mui

sa.

21. In every prosecution under this Ordinance it shall until the contrary is proved be presumed that the girl in ques- tion was a mui tsai in the employment of the accused at the time of the alleged offence, and this onus shall not be deemed to be discharged by mere proof that the girl was described in any transaction by some term other than mui tsai.

22. In every prosecution under this Ordinance, whether evidence be called on the question of age or not, any girl who appears to the magistrate to be of or under

or

over any particular age shall, unless the contrary is proved, be deemed for the purposes of such prosecution to be of or under or over such age as the case may be.

23. Nothing in this Ordinance shall affect any right of guardianship already vested in the Secretary for Chinese Affairs by virtue of the provisions of the Protec- tion of Women and Girls Ordinance, 1897, or hereafter vested in him by virtue of the provisions of the Protection of Women and Girls Ordinance, 1897, as amended by the Protection of Women and Girls Amendment Ordinance, 1929: Provided that in exercising any such right of guar- dianship the Secretary for Chinese Affairs shall comply with the provisions of section 10 of this Ordinance.

24.-(1) In any proceedings whatso- ever, whether under this Ordinance or not, the following shall be admissible in evidence upon production

(a) any register, or any part of any register which appears to be kept under this Ordinance;

(b) any extract from any such regis- ter purporting to be certified as correct by the Secretary for Chinese Affairs or Assistant to the Secretary for Chinese Affairs; (e) any photograph or finger prints which appear to have been taken for the purpose of any such register.

(2) If any such photograph appears to have a serial number, and if the said serial number occurs in some part of any such register as apparently assigned to some particular mui tsai, it shall, until the con- trary is proved, be assumed that the photo-

938

graph in question is the photograph of the mui tsai indicated by the said serial number.

(3) If any such finger prints appear to have a serial number, and if the said serial number appears in some part of any such register as apparently assigned to some particular mui tsai, it shall, until the con- trary is proved, be assumed that the finger prints in question are the finger prints of the mui tai indicated by the said serial number.

Objects and Reasons,

1. This Ordinance proposes to make certain amend- ments in the Female Domestic Service Ordinance, 1923, Ordinance No. 1 of 1923, in order to increase its efficiency.

2. Section 2 of this Ordinance prohibits the bring- ing into the Colony of any new mui tsai, but if a mui tsai is already in the Colony the section will not pre- vent her being taken out of the Colony and brought back again, provided that she is registered under the Ordinance before she is taken out.

3. Section 3 of this Ordinance repeals sections 7 and & of the principal Ordinance. Section 7 was inserted in the principal Ordinance in its passage through the Legislative Council. It provides that in every prosecntion for over-work or ill-treatment of a mui tsai medical evidence shall be given as to the injuries received by the mui tsai, that the magistrate must find whether such ill-treatment amounted to gross cruelty, and that if the magistrate finds gross cruelty the offender must be sentenced to imprison- ment without the option of a fine. The object was the laudable one that cases of gross cruelty should be adequately punished. There are, however, two dangers. One is that even gross eruelty may leave no indications to which a medical witness can point, and the medical evidence might even have the effect of weakening the evidence of gross cruelty. A more serious danger is that inadvertent failure to call medical evidence on a charge under section 6 of the principal Ordinance might lead to the quashing of a conviction. It is even possible that if the charge were one of common assault, and medical evidence were not called, the conviction might be attacked on the ground that section 7 of the principal Ordinance would apply to the charge of assault on a mui tsai as well as to a charge expressly laid under section 6. Section 7 is therefore repealed. Some of its provisions are repro- duced in the new section 18 of the principal Ordinance which is to be enacted by section 7 of this Ordinance. That section will provide that in every prosecution under section 6 of the principal Ordinance the magis- trate shall find whether the acts or omissions proved, if any, amounted to gross cruelty, and if he so finds the accused must be sentenced to imprisonment with- out the option of a fine. The provision that medical evidence must be called is omitted.

4. Section 8 of the principal Ordinance provides that the provisions of the Offences against the Person Ordinance, 1865, and of the Protection of Women and Girls Ordinance, 1897, shall as hitherto apply to mui tsai. To provide that an enactment in force is still in force is, to say the least, unusual, but the insertion.

939

of this section in the Ordinance in committee was justified by the desirability of drawing public atten- tion to the fact that mui tsai were within the protec- tion of the two Ordinances referred to. It was also perhaps useful as impliedly preserving certain rights of guardianship conferred on the Secretary for Chinese Affairs by section 32 of the Protection of Women and Girls Ordinance, 1897. It has, however, been thought desirable to deal specifically with these rights of guardianship, as is explained in paragraphs 12 to 15 below. It therefore seems unnecessary to retain section of the principal Ordinance on the statute book.

5. Section 9 (1) of the principal Ordinance enables the Secretary for Chinese Affairs, upon the death of the employer of any mui tsai, to make any order which he may think fit regarding the transfer of such mui tsai to a new employer. The object of this pro-

was give the Secretary for Chinese Affairs power to make the best arrangement for the mui tsai possible in all the circumstances of the case.

It was never intended that this power should override the right of a mui tsai to be restored to her parent or other natural guardian, or the general right of the parent or other natural guardian of a mui tsai under the age of eighteen to have the girl restored to his or her custody. Section 4 of this Ordinance therefore, inserts in section 9 (1) of the principal Ordinance words which make it quite clear that the provisions of section 10 of the principal Ordinance are to prevail over those of section 9 (1) in case of any conflict.

6. Section 5 of this Ordinance makes in section 11 of the principal Ordinance the same amendment as section 4 of this Ordinance makes in section 9 (1) of the principal Ordinance,

7. Section 6 of this Ordinance repeals section 13 (2) of the principal Ordinance because in future it will be illegal to bring any unregistered mui tsai into the Colony, and accordingly no provision can be made for the registration of mui tsai so brought in.

8. Section 7 of this Ordinance has already been referred to in paragraph 3 above. It substitutes new section for the present penalty section.

રી

9. Section 8 of this Ordinance adds five new sec- tions to the principal Ordinance. The proposed new sec- tion 20 provides that in any prosecution under section 6 of the principal Ordinance the magistrate may convict of common assault if he fails to find as a fact that the girl in question was a mui tsai. It is possible that he has this power already under section 22 of the Magistrates Ordinance, 1890, but it is considered desirable in this case to place the matter beyond all

doubt.

10. The proposed new section 21 deals with onus of proof, and provides that in every prosecution under the principal Ordinance it shall, until the contrary is proved, be presumed that the girl in question was a mui tsai in the employment of the accused at the time of the alleged offence, and that this onus will not be discharged by mere proof that the girl was described any transaction by some term other than mui tsai. This may appear drastic, but the difficulties of proof are enormous. In order to prove that a girl is a mui tsai it might be necessary to prove some payment made years ago, outside the Colony, and in the absence of the girl herself. On the other hand, the accused

in

940

should find it easy to prove the real status of any girl in his household, and the burden is therefore less heavy than it might appear. The provision that the onus will not be discharged by mere proof that the girl was described in some transaction by some term other than mui tsai is inserted because of the practice of describing a mui tsai as an adopted daughter. If the girl was in fact used as a domestic servant, and if money had been paid to secure her services as such, no doubt the magistrate would hold that she was a mui tsai, even though a document was produced in which she was called an adopted daughter. Of course under the main part of the section the magistrate would have to find that the girl was a mui tsai unless there was evidence to the contrary sufficient to dis- charge the onus laid on the accused by the section.

11. The proposed new section 22 will enable the magistrate to estimate the age of a mui tsai even though no evidence is called on the point. Such a provision is obviously necessary. Precedents in prin- ciple may be found in section 27 of Ordinance No. 4 of 1897, and in section 1 (3) of the Street Betting Act, 1906, and section 141 of the Education Act, 1921.

12. Section 32 of the Protection of Women and Girls Ordinance, 1897, provides that "No parent or person acting in the place of a parent who has volun- tarily parted with a girl for the purpose of adoption into another family, or who has received money for parting with the custody of such girl for any purpose, shall be deemed to be entitled as of right to the custody of such girl as her parent or as the person acting in the place of her parent, and the legal guardianship of such girl shall be vested in the Secretary for Chinese Affairs". These provisions appear to be in conflict with some of the provisions of the Female Domestic Service Ordinance, 1923.

13. In the first place it might be argued that the declaratory clause of the later Ordinance, i.e., section 2, negatives the right of guardianship conferred on the Secretary for Chinese Affairs by section 32 of Ordinance No. 4 of 1897 where a parent has received money for parting with the custody of a daughter. It is submitted that the conflict is only apparent, and that though the rights of the Secretary for Chinese Affairs arise upon such payment they are not conferred by that payment. Further, the rights of the Secretary for Chinese Affairs are conferred solely in the interests of the girl, and in that respect they differ from rights of an employer and even from the rights of a parent or guardian. It is therefore submitted that section 2 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1923 is concerned with such rights as those of an employer and such rights as those of a parent, and not with rights conferred on an officer of the Government to enable him to protect. the girl, if necessary, against both her employer and her parent. To make this clear, however, section 8 of this Ordinance proposes to add to Ordinance No. 1 of 1923 a new section 23 which will provide that nothing in Ordinance No. 1 of 1923 shall affect any right of guardianship possessed by the Secretary for Chinese Affairs by virtue of the provisions of Ordi- nance No. 4 of 1897.

14. In the second place, while section 32 of Ordi- nance No. 4 of 1897 appears to give the Secretary for Chinese Affairs the full and unfettered rights of a legal guardian, section 10 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1923 considerably limits his right to refuse to restore a girl to the custody of her parent or natural guardian. The

:

941

latter section provides that any mui tsai who wishes to be restored to the custody of her parent or natural guardian, and any mui tsai under eighteen whose parent or natural guardian wishes the girl to be restored to his or her custody, shall be restored to such custody unless the Secretary for Chinese Affairs "shall see some grave objection in the interest of such mui tsai to such restoration". The conflict here is real, and no doubt the later enactment would prevail. The proposed new section 23 makes it quite clear that the later enactment is to prevail, as it lays down that in exercising any right of guardianship conferred on him by Ordinance No. 4 of 1897 the Secretary for Chinese Affairs shall comply with the provisions of section 10 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1923.

15. In the third place, section 32 of Ordinance No. 4 of 1897 does negative the right of the parent, in certain circumstances, in a form which is undesirable in view of the provisions of Ordinance No. 1 of 1923. That section is, however, about to be amended by another Ordinance so as to make it more consonant with the objects and principles of Ordinance No. 1 of 1923.

16. The proposed new section 24 makes any register kept under this Ordinance, and certified extracts, and photographs and finger prints taken for the purpose of any such register, admissible in evidence upon mere production. It also links up the photographs or finger prints with the entries in the registers by means of the serial numbers used.

(3) Where the legal guardianship of any girl is vested in the Secretary for Chinese Affairs by virtue of the provisions of this section, it shall be lawful for the Secretary for Chinese Affairs, subject to the provisions of section 10 of the Female Domestic Service Ordinance, 1923, to make any order regarding the custody and control of the girl which he may think desirable in her interests, and if he so think fit, to require any person in whose charge he shall place the girl to enter into a bond with one or more sureties to treat the girl well and to produce her before him whenever he shall so require.

6. Section 39 of the Protection of Women and Repeal of Girls Ordinance, 1897, is repealed and the following Ordinance section is substituted therefor :---

Power of search, etc.

No. 4 of 1897, s. 39,

tion of new

39.-(1) The Secretary for Chinese and substitu- Affairs, or any officer generally or specially section. authorised for that purpose in writing by the Secretary for Chinese Affairs, may enter, and for that purpose may use force if necessary, and may search, any vessel, house, building, or other place for the purpose of ascertaining whether there is therein any woman or girl who is or may be liable to be dealt with under the pro- visions of this Ordinance, or whether any offence under this Ordinance is being, or has been, committed, and may remove any such woman or girl to a place of safety to be there detained until her case be enquired unjo.

(2) The Secretary for Chinese Affairs or such officer as aforesaid may during or after any such search as is referred to in sub-section (1), arrest or cause to be arrested any person reasonably suspected of being liable to prosecution for an offence against this Ordinance, and may seize and detain any articles, or any books, documents

964

or accounts, which he may have reason to believe to relate to any offence against this Ordinance.

(3) No person shall refuse the Secre- tary for Chinese Affairs or such officer as aforesaid access to any such vessel, house, building or other place, or otherwise obstruct or hinder him in effecting an entrance, or in removing such woman or girl, or in seizing and detaining such articles, books, documents or accounts.

(4). (a) In carrying out any search under the provisions of this section the Secretary for Chinese Affairs or such officer as aforesaid shall have power to put questions and to give any such order or direction as may be necessary to the inmates of any vessel, house, building, or other place for the purpose of carrying out such search.

(b) The inmates of any vessel, house, building, or other place shall answer truth- fully all questions put to them by the Secretary for Chinese Affairs, or such officer as aforesaid, and shall obey any order or direction given by him touching any matter or any person connected with such search.

(c) No person shall by force, restraint, threats, inducement, or other means, cause any woman or girl who is or may be liable to be dealt with under the provisions of this Ordinance to conceal herself in or to leave any vessel, house, building, or other place being searched or about to be searched by the Secretary for Chinese Affairs or such officer as aforesaid under the provi- sions of this section, with the intent that the search of the Secretary for Chinese Affairs or such officer may thereby be evaded or obstructed.

(5) Every person who contravenes any of the provisions of this section shall upon summary conviction be liable to a fine not exceeding five hundred dollars and to imprisonment for any term not exceeding six months.

Objects and Reasons.

1. This Ordinance proposes to make various altera- tions in the Protection of Women and Girls Ordi- nance, 1897, Ordinance No. 4 of 1897, some with a view to strengthening the hands of the authorities in dealing with the traffic in women and girls, and some in order to get rid of certain difficulties, explained below, which exist at present in our legislation.

2. Section 2 of this Ordinance amends section 3 of the principal Ordinance so as to make paragraph (4) of the latter section more complete. At present that paragraph contains correlative provisions, applicable to the two parties to the transaction, in three cases, i.e., sale, pledge and hire, but "disposal

      disposal" has no correlative. The amendment now to be made adds a reference to obtaining possession, as a correlative to disposal.

14

965

3. Section 3 of this Ordinance inserts a new section 3A in the principal Ordinance. This new section takes one defence away from the defendant to any charge under section 3 of the principal Ordinance, as it provides that it shall be no defence to any charge under that section that the woman and girl in question consented to the transaction or received any part of the consideration.

4. It has been suggested that a possible defence to a charge of harbouring under section 18 of Ordinance No. 4 of 1897 would be that the accused was the person who had taken the girl out of the possession of the person having the lawful care of her, and that harbouring and taking are mutually exclusive. It is not to be supposed that the accused would expressly admit the suggested fact, but it would be argued that the evidence for the prosecution would naturally lead to that conclusion. On the other hand, it is just possible that the evidence of the prosecution would not be sufficient to discharge the onus of proof of a charge of taking under section 26 of the Ordinance, because under that section practically the whole onus is on the prosecution, whereas under section 18 a consider- able onus is thrown on the defendant. Accordingly, section 4 of this Ordinance amends section 18 of the principal Ordinance so as to make it clear that the person who abducts or imports may be convicted of harbouring. The opportunity is taken of expanding the word "harbour into harbour, detain or have under control ".

""

5. Section 32 of the Protection of Women and Girls Ordinance, 1897, Ordinance No. 4 of 1897, had a curious history in the five Women and Girls Ordi- nances enacted between 1889, the year in which the section first occurred, and 1897, and in its present form it is not quite satisfactory, especially in view of the provisions of the Female Domestic Service Ordi- nance, 1923, Ordinance No. 1 of 1923. Section 5 of this Ordinance proposes to substitute a new form of the section.

6. In the first place, the present section negatives in undesirably wide terms the right of a parent to the custody of a girl where the parent has parted with the girl for the purpose of adoption into another family, or has received money for parting with the custody of the girl for any purpose. The proposed new sec- tion 32 does not expressly negative any right on the part of the parent, but merely vests the guardianship of the girl in such a case in the Secretary for Chinese Affairs. It empowers the Secretary for Chinese Affairs as legal guardian to make any order regarding the custody of the girl which he may think desirable in her interests, subject to one qualification which is referred to below. In making any such order the Secretary for Chinese Affairs would no doubt give full weight to the natural and moral claim of the parent to the custody of the girl. Thus, the Secretary for Chinese Affairs will still have the full rights of a legal guardian, but there will be no provision to suggest that the natural claims of the parent have been extinguished. Further, there will be nothing to suggest that the parent could not successfully assert a claim as against a third party to the custody of the girl if the Secretary for Chinese Affairs were not to exercise his legal right of guardianship.

:

7. In the second place, the present section appears to give the Secretary for Chinese Affairs the full and unfettered right of a legal guardian. Section 10 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1923, however, considerably limits

966

his right to refuse to restore a girl who is a mui tsai to the custody of her parent or natural guardian. There is a distinct conflict here between the two Ordi- nances. No doubt the later Ordinance would prevail, but it is advisable to make that position quite clear. Accordingly, the proposed new section 32 provides that the rights of the Secretary for Chinese Affairs as legal guardian shall be subject to the provisions of section 10 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1923. That section provides that any mui tsai who wishes to be restored to the custody of her parent or natural guardian, and any mui tsai under eighteen whose parent or natural guardian wishes such mui tsai to be restored to his or her custody, shall be restored to such custody unless the Secretary for Chinese Affairs sees some grave objection in the interest of such mui tsai to`such

restoration.

8. In the third place, it might be argued that the declaratory clause of Ordinance No. 1 of 1923, i.e., section 2, negatives the right of guardianship conferred on the Secretary for Chinese Affairs by section 32 of Ordinance No. 4 of 1897. Reasons are given in the Objects and Reasons attached to the Female Domestic Service Amendment Bill for suggesting that the con- flict here is only apparent, but it has been thought better to make the matter quite clear, and this is being done by means of a new section 23 which the above bill proposes to insert in Ordinance No. 1 of 1923. That new section will provide that nothing in Ordi- nance No. 1 of 1923 is to affect any right of guardian- ship vested in the Secretary for Chinese Affairs under Ordinance No. 4 of 1897, or to be vested in him under Ordinance No. 4 of 1897 as amended by this Ordi-

nance.

9. Section 39 of the principal Ordinance gives to the Secretary for Chinese Affairs, and any officer authorised for that purpose by him in writing, power to search any vessel or place where he has reasonable cause to sus- pect that there is any woman or girl who may be liable to be dealt with under the Ordinance, or in which he has reasonable cause to suspect that an offence against the Ordinance is being committed. It also gives power to search for the purpose of ascertaining whether there is in any vessel or place any woman or girl who may be liable to be dealt with under the Ordinance, or for the purposes of ascertaining whether any offence against the Ordinance is being committed there. The section gives power to remove and detain the woman or girl, but it gives no power to arrest, and it gives no power to seize documents or other articles which may be evidence of an offence. It also fails to make it an offence to obstruct any such search. Section 6 of this Ordinance substitutes a new section 39 which will remedy the above defects. The new section also give to the Secretary for Chinese Affairs, and to the autho- rised officer, the right to put questions to persons found in any vessel or place searched under the sections and it requires such persons to answer such questions, truthfully, and to obey any order given connected with the search. It also makes it an offence to force or induce a woman or girl who is liable to be dealt with under the Ordinance to conceal herself, or to escape, with a view to evading or obstructing the search. This section is adapted from section 19 of Enactment No. 2 of 1914 of the Enactments of the Federated Malay States, as amended by Enactment No. 21 of 1925. It will be noticed that sub-section (1) of section 39 of the principal Ordinance disappears, because all the neces- sary power seems to be given under sub-section (2) of that section, which appears in the new section as sub- section (1), with slight alterations.

20. In any prosecution under section 6 it shall be lawful for the magistrate to convict of common assault if he finds that an assault was committed but does not find that the girl in question was a mui tsai.

21. In every prosecution under this Ordinance it shall until the contrary is proved be presumed that the girl in ques- tion was a mui tsai in the employment of the accused at the time of the alleged offence, and this onus shall not be deemed to be discharged by mere proof that the girl was described in any transaction by some term other than mui tsai.

22. In every prosecution under this Ordinance, whether evidence be called on the question of age or not, any girl who appears to the magistrate to be of or under or over any particular age shall, unless the contrary is proved, be deemed for the purposes of such prosecution to be of or under or over such age as the case may be.

23. Nothing in this Ordinance shall affect any right of guardianship already vested in the Secretary for Chinese Affairs by virtue of the provisions of the Protec- tion of Women and Girls Ordinance, 1897, or hereafter vested in him by virtue of the provisions of the Protection of Women and Girls Ordinance, 1897, as amended by the Protection of Women and Girls Amendment Ordinance, 1929: Provided that in exercising any such right of guar- dianship the Secretary for Chinese Affairs shall comply with the provisions of section 10 of this Ordinance.

969

graph in question is the photograph of the mui tsai indicated by the said serial number.

(3) If any such finger prints appear to have a serial number, and if the said serial number appears in some part of any such register as apparently assigned to some particular mui tsai, it shall, until the con- trary is proved, be assumed that the finger prints in question are the finger prints of the mui tsai indicated by the said serial number.

Objects and Reasons.

1. This Ordinance proposes to make certain amend- ments in the Female Domestic Service Ordinance, 1923, Ordinance No. 1 of 1923, in order to increase its efficiency.

2. Section 2 of this Ordinance prohibits the bring- ing into the Colony of any new mui tsai, but if a mui tsai is already in the Colony the section will not pre- vent her being taken out of the Colony and brought back again, provided that she is registered under the Ordinance before she is taken out.

3. Section 3 of this Ordinance repeals sections 7 and 8 of the principal Ordinance. Section 7 was inserted in the principal Ordinance in its passage through the Legislative Council. It provides that in every prosecution for over-work or ill-treatment of a mui tsai medical evidence shall be given as to the injuries received by the mui tsai, that the magistrate must find whether such ill-treatment amounted to gross cruelty, and that if the magistrate finds gross cruelty the offender must be sentenced to imprison- ment without the option of a fine. The object was the laudable one that cases of gross cruelty should be adequately punished. There are, however, two dangers. One is that even gross cruelty may leave no indications to which a medical witness can point, and the medical evidence might even have the effect of weakening the evidence of gross cruelty. A more serious danger is that inadvertent failure to call medical evidence on a charge under section 6 of the principal Ordinance might lead to the quashing of a conviction. It is even possible that if the charge were one of common assault, and medical evidence were not called, the conviction might be attacked on the ground that section 7 of the principal Ordinance would apply to the charge of assault on a mui tsai as well as to a charge expressly laid under section 6. Section 7 is therefore repealed. Some of its provisions are repro- duced in the new section 18 of the principal Ordinance which is to le enacted by section 7 of this Ordinance. That section will provide that in every prosecution under section 6 of the principal Ordinance the magis- trate shall find whether the acts or omissions proved, if any, amounted to gross cruelty, and if he so finds the accused must be sentenced to imprisonment with- out the option of a fine. The provision that medical evidence must be called is omitted.

4. Section 8 of the principal Ordinance provides that the provisions of the Offences against the Person Ordinance, 1865, and of the Protection of Women and Girls Ordinance, 1897, shall as hitherto apply to mui tsai. To provide that an enactment in force is still in force is, to say the least, unusual, but the insertion

970

of this section in the Ordinance in committee was justified by the desirability of drawing public atten- tion to the fact that mui tsai were within the protec- tion of the two Ordinances referred to. It was also perhaps useful as impliedly preserving certain rights of guardianship conferred on the Secretary for Chinese Affairs by section 32 of the Protection of Women and Girls Ordinance, 1897. It has, however, been thought desirable to deal specifically with these rights of guardianship, as is explained in paragraphs 12 to 15 below. It therefore seems unnecessary to retain section 8 of the principal Ordinance on the statute book.

5. Section 9 (1) of the principal Ordinance enables the Secretary for Chinese Affairs, upon the death of the employer of any mui tsai, to make any order which he may think fit regarding the transfer of such mui tsai to a new employer. The object of this pro- VISI was give the Secretary for Chinese Affairs power to make the best arrangement for the mui tsai It was possible in all the circumstances of the case. never intended that this power should override the right of a mui tsai to be restored to her parent or other natural guardian, or the general right of the parent or other natural guardian of a mui tsai under the age of eighteen to have the girl restored to his or her custody. Section 4 of this Ordinance therefore, inserts in section 9 (1) of the principal Ordinance words which take it quite clear that the provisions of section 10 of the principal Ordinance are to prevail over those of section 9 (1) in case of any conflict.

6. Section 5 of this Ordinance makes in section 11 of the principal Ordinance the same amendment as section 4 of this Ordinance makes in section 9 (1) of the principal Ordinance.

7. Section 6 of this Ordinance repeals section 13 (2) of the principal Ordinance because in future it will be illegal to bring any unregistered mui tsai into the Colony, and accordingly no provision can be made for the registration of mui tsai so brought in.

8. Section 7 of this Ordinance has already been It substitutes a referred to in paragraph 3 above. new section for the present penalty section.

9. Section 8 of this Ordinance adds five new sec- tions to the principal Ordinance. The proposed new sec- tion 20 provides that in any prosecution under section 6 of the principal Ordinance the magistrate may convict of common assault if he fails to find as a fact that the girl in question was a mui tsai. It is possible that he has this power already under section 22 of the Magistrates Ordinance, 1890, but it is considered desirable in this case to place the matter beyond all doubt.

10. The proposed new section 21 deals with onus of proof, and provides that in every prosecution under the principal Ordinance it shall, until the contrary is proved, be presumed that the girl in question was a mui tsai in the employment of the accused at the time. of the alleged offence, and that this onus will not be discharged by mere proof that the girl was described in any transaction by some term other than mui tsai. This may appear drastic, but the difficulties of proof are enormous. In order to prove that a girl is a mui tsai it might be necessary to prove some payment made years ago, outside the Colony, and in the absence of the girl herself. On the other hand, the accused

971

should find it easy to prove the real status of any girl in his household, and the burden is therefore less heavy than it might appear. The provision that the onus will not be discharged by mere proof that the girl was described in some transaction by some term other than mui tsai is inserted because of the practice of describing a mui tsai as an adopted daughter. If the girl was in fact used as a domestic servant, and if money had been paid to secure her services as such, no doubt the magistrate would hold that she was a mui tsai, even though a document was produced in which she was called an adopted daughter. Of course under the main part of the section the magistrate would have to find that the girl was a mui tsai unless there was evidence to the contrary sufficient to dis- charge the onus laid on the accused by the section.

11. The proposed new section 22 will enable the magistrate to estimate the age of a mui tsai even though no evidence is called on the point. Such a provision is obviously necessary. Precedents in prin- ciple may be found in section 27 of Ordinance No. 4 of 1897, and in section 1 (3) of the Street Betting Act, 1906, and section 141 of the Education Act, 1921.

12. Section 32 of the Protection of Women and Girls Ordinance, 1897, provides that "No parent or person acting in the place of a parent who has volun- tarily parted with a girl for the purpose of adoption into another family, or who has received money for parting with the custody of such girl for any purpose, shall be deemed to be entitled as of right to the custody of such girl as her parent or as the person acting in the place of her parent, and the legal guardianship of such girl shall be vested in the Secretary for Chinese Affairs". These provisions appear to be in conflict with some of the provisions of the Female Domestic Service Ordinance, 1923.

13. In the first place it might be argued that the declaratory clause of the later Ordinance, i.e., section 2, negatives the right of guardianship conferred on the Secretary for Chinese Affairs by section 32 of Ordinance No. 4 of 1897 where a parent has received money for parting with the custody of a daughter. It is submitted that the conflict is only apparent, and that though the rights of the Secretary for Chinese Affairs arise upon such payment they are not conferred by that payment. Further, the rights of the Secretary for Chinese Aftairs are conferred solely in the interests of the girl, and in that respect they differ from rights of an employer and even from the rights of a parent or guardian. It is therefore submitted that section 2 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1923 is concerned with such rights as those of an employer and such rights as those of a parent, and not with rights conferred on an officer of the Government to enable him to protect the girl, if necessary, against both her employer and her parent. To make this clear, however, section 8 of this Ordinance proposes to add to Ordinance No. 1 of 1923 a new section 23 which will provide that nothing in Ordinance No. 1 of 1923 shall affect any right of guardianship possessed by the Secretary for Chinese Affairs by virtue of the provisions of Ordi- nance No. 4 of 1897.

14. In the second place, while section 32 of Ordi- nance No. 4 of 1897 appears to give the Secretary for Chinese Affairs the full and unfettered rights of a legal guardian, section 10 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1923 considerably limits his right to refuse to restore a girl to the custody of her parent or natural guardian. The

972

latter section provides that any mui tsai who wishes to be restored to the custody of her parent or natural guardian, and any mui tsai under eighteen whose parent or natural guardian wishes the girl to be restored to his or her custody, shall be restored to such custody unless the Secretary for Chinese Affairs "shall see some grave objection in the interest of such mui tsai to such restoration". The conflict here is real, and no doubt the later enactment would prevail. The proposed new section 23 makes it quite clear that the later enactment is to prevail, as it lays down that in exercising any right of guardianship conferred on him by Ordinance No. 4 of 1897 the Secretary for Chinese Affairs shall comply with the provisions of section 10 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1923.

15. In the third place, section 32 of Ordinance No. 4 of 1897 does negative the right of the parent, in certain circumstances, in a form which is undesirable in view of the provisions of Ordinance No. 1 of 1923. That section is, however, about to be amended by another Ordinance so as to make it more consonant with the objects and principles of Ordinance No. 1 of 1923.

16. The proposed new section 24 makes any register kept under this Ordinance, and certified extracts, and photographs and finger prints taken for the purpose of any such register, admissible in evidence upon mere production. It also links up the photographs or finger prints with the entries in the registers by means of the serial numbers used.

(3) It shall be lawful for the Protector or any inspector, if he has reasonable cause to suspect that an offence against this Ordi- nance has been committed, to remove and to detain in a suitable place for inquiries any young person or child found in any place in, about, or in respect of which such offence (if any) would appear to have been committed.

"

7. Section 5 of the principal Ordinance is amended by the insertion of the words

young person or immediately before the word "child" in each of the five places in which that word occurs in the said section.

Amendment

of Ordinance No. 22 of

1922, s. 5.

Objects and Reasons.

1. This Ordinance is intended to be a further step in the improvement of factory conditions in the Colony. Such improvement must be slow and gradual, and it is very difficult in such matters to travel far ahead of neighbouring countries.

2. The main object of this Ordinance is to include women and young persons within the scope of the prin- cipal Ordinance, No. 22 of 1922. A young person is defined as any person of or over the age of fifteen years and under the age of eighteen years.

3. Paragraph (c) of section 6 of this Ordinance adds to the principal Ordinance a new sub-section 4 (3) which gives the Protector of Labour, and any inspector of labour, power to remove and detain in a suitable place for inquiries any young person or child found in any factory, etc., in which the Protector or inspector has reasonable cause to suspect that some offence against the Ordinance has been committed. Without some provision of this kind it would be difficult to investigate a suspected offence, and it might be very difficult to prove the offence if it had been committed. It is obvious that if the child or young person in question were the chief or the only witness of the offence there would be a great temptation in the mind of the offender to cause the disappearance of that witness, and this would be comparatively easy in the case of a child or young person. The detention would be in the interest of the child or young person, and in the interests of children and young persons employed in factories gene- rally. It would be for as short a time as possible.

4. A set of draft regulations proposed to be made when the bill is passed, is published simultaneously with the bill. These regulations make the following provisions :

(a) Lead processes and manufacture of vermilion are added to the list of dangerous trades. (b) The employment of young persons in dangerous

trades is prohibited.

(c) The employment of women in dangerous trades without the special permission of the Protector of Labour is prohibited. It is proposed to allow the employment of women in fire cracker factories.

(d) The employment of women and young persons between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. is prohibited.

(2) Being a collateral or auxi- liary or additional or substi- tuted security (other than a mortage executed in pursu- ance of a duty stamped agree- ment for a mortgage), or being a mortgage executed by way of further assurance, provided in every case that the principal security was duly stamped under sub-head- ing (1).

10 cents for every

$100 or part thereof of the value of the additional Or substituted se- curity.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The main object of this bill is to carry out one of the recommendations of the recent Stamp Duties Committee. The opportunity has been taken to make certain other amendments also.

""

2. The present definition of the term "letter of hypothe- cation leaves some slight doubt as to whether shares are included, because the words used in the definition are "movable property." Section 2 of this Ordinance amends the definition so as to refer to "goods, shares, or market- able securities."

3. Exemption (b) to Heading No. 16 in the Schedule to the principal Ordinance exempts "trust receipts given to a banker". The intention evidently was to exempt such documents from stamp duty altogether, but it has been suggested that it might be arguable that a trust receipt given to a banker, while not liable to duty as a declaration of trust, is liable to duty as a mortgage, under the provi- sions of section 8 (3) which lays down that an instrument which is chargeable under more than one heading in the Schedule shall be charged under that heading which im- poses the highest duty. Section 3 of this Ordinance accordingly adds to the definition of the term "mortgage words which exclude from the meaning of that term " trust receipts given to a banker."

77

1021

4. Section 4 of this Ordinance introduces into section 5 (1) of the principal Ordinance certain words taken from section 1 of the Stamp Act, 1891, 54 & 55 Vict. c. 39, which are desirable for greater accuracy. An example of an exemption not found in the Stamp Ordinance itself is au indenture of apprenticeship to the sea service, which is exempted by section 108 (1) of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1894.

5. Section 5 of this Ordinance adds two classes to the persons who are exempt from the obligation to take out annual certificates to practise. The two classes are (1) Professors of the Medical Faculty of the University of Hong Kong, and (2) any persons exempted by the Governor in Council on the ground that the whole of their time is at the disposal of some charitable institution.

6. Section 6 of this Ordinance introduces a section unanimously recommended by the recent Stamp Duties Committee. It is intended to prevent the passing on of dividends to unregistered shareholders.

7. The effect of section 7 of this Ordinance will be that the stamp duty on an instrument of apprenticeship will in future be $1 instead of $20. The duty in England is 2s. 6d.

8. Section 8 of this Ordinance expands Heading No. 16 in the Schedule to the principal Ordinance so as to make it clearly apply to certain declarations of trust about which there might otherwise be some question.

9. Heading No. 15 in the Schedule to the principal Ordinance originally had a scale divided into two parts. This, however, was very soon altered, as Ordinance No. 21 of 1921 made the stamp duty $1 per $100 in all cases. Heading No. 15 deals with the stamp duty on conveyance on sale

It seem obvious that the stamp duty on foreclo- sure orders, which is dealt with in Heading No. 21, should have been altered at the same time. This was overlooked. Section 9 of this Ordinance now remedies that omission.

10. Heading No. 24 in the Schedule to the principal Ordinance, which deals with the stamp duty on leases, does not provide for the case where the term of the lease is indefinite. Section 10 of this Ordinance supplies this omission. The words adopted are mainly based upon the judgment of Hamilton J. in Mount Edgcumbe v. Inland Revenue Commissioners (1911) 2 K.B. 24.

11. Heading No. 24 in the Schedule to the principal Ordinance is open to another objection also, in that it makes the stamp duty on the surrender of a lease the same as the duty on the lease This seems to be inequitable and might work considerable hardship in some cases. Apparently in England the stamp duty would be only the ordinary deed stamp of 10s. Section 11 of this Ordinance makes the stamp duty on surrender of a lease the same duty as would be payable on a lease for the residue of the term surrendered, any consideration for surrender being regarded as premium.

12. Heading No. 29 (2) in the Schedule to the Stamp Ordinance makes the stamp duty on any additional or sub- stituted security 10 cents for every $100 of the principal sum secured. This seems unnecessarily heavy, as the value of any additional security might be quite small in comparison with the total sum secured. section 12 of this Ordinance provides that the duty in Accordingly such a case shall be 10 cents for every $100 of the value of the additional or substituted security. Section 12 also alters the language of the second column of this sub-head- ing which left something to be desired.

12. The following sections are inserted in the principal new sections Ordinance immediately after section 62 :- 62A and 62B in Ordinance No. 9 of 1911.

Duty on spirit dis- tilled in the Colony.

62 A.-(1) The duty on spirits made in a distillery is to be charged in respect of the wort or wash, the low wines, and the feints and spirits made in the distillery, and shall be pay- able according to such of those modes of charge as produces the greatest amount of duty.

(2) In respect of the wort or wash the duty is to be charged in respect of the quantity of fermentable material used in the preparation thereof, the method of ascertaining the duty so chargeable being as follows. A bulk sample of not less than one catty shall be drawn by a revenue officer from each consignment of fer- mentable material received by the licensee on his licensed premises, and shall be fermented by a Government Analyst, with ferment obtained from the same distillery, for the maximum period allowed for the material and ferment in question by the Distillery Regula- tions in force for the time being, and shall on the completion of the fermentation be distilled by such Analyst who shall determine the amount of absolute alcohol produced. From the amount of absolute alcohol so determined the Analyst shall calculate the number of gallons of spirit containing twenty-five per cent. of alcohol by weight which one picul of such fermentable material is found capable of pro- ducing. From the amount so determined a deduction shall be made of ten per cent. from the 1st of November to the 14th April, both inclusive, and fifteen per cent. from the 15th April to the 31st October, both inclusive. Duty shall be chargeable on each picul of fermentable material used according to the rates payable on the amount of twenty-five per cent. spirit which such material shall have been so found capable of producing.

(3) For the purpose of sub-section (2), the percentage of alcohol by weight in the spirit. distilled shall be determined by means of a glass alcoholometer of Tralle type graduated to read percentage of alcohol by weight, and

1

Power to

distrain for

arrears of duty on spirits dis- tilled in the Colony.

1051

all such determinations of percentage of alcohol by weight shall be calculated as being deter- mined at the standard temperature of 60° Fahrenheit.

(4) In respect of low wines the duty is to be charged on the quantity of absolute alcohol contained therein as measured by the instru- ments described in sub-section (3) above, less five per cent.

(5) In respect of feints and spirits the duty is to be charged on the quantity of absolute alcohol contained therein after making due allowance for the feints (if any) remaining from a previous distillation and included in the account of feints and spirits last produced.

(6) In calculating the duty chargeable ou spirits an allowance shall be made for any deficiency occasioned by natural waste, subject to the following provisions--

(a) The allowance shall not exceed one and a half per cent. on the spirits removed from the receiver to the

store.

(b) If the deficiency exceeds three per cent. on the spirits so removed no allowance whatsoever shall be made.

(7) Notwithstanding the provisions of sub- sections (1) to (5), the distiller shall pay to the Superintendent within three days of the close of each weekly period, or within such other period as may be prescribed by the Superintendent, the duty payable on all spirit duly tested and passed for delivery out of the licensed premises by the inspecting revenue officer during the previous week.

Such pay- ment shall be in part or whole discharge, as the case may be, of the amount chargeable under sub-section (1).

(8) No duty shall be payable in the case of the under-mentioned classes of spirit:-

(a) on spirit duly denatured on the licensed premises to the satisfaction of the Superintendent;

(b) on spirit duly exported from the Colony after having been duly tested and passed by the inspecting revenue officer;

(e) on spirit destroyed in the presence of

the inspecting revenue officer; (d) on spirit warehoused or removed to

store, while still remaining therein.

62B.-(1) If any duty payable by a dis- tiller, as ascertained by the Superintendent, remains unpaid after the time at which it is payable, the Superintendent may, by warrant signed by him, empower any person to distrain all spirits, and all materials for distilling spirits, and all vessels and utensils, belonging to the distiller, or in any premises in the use possession of the distiller, or of any person on his behalf or in trust for him, and also all spirits warehoused in the name of the distiller, and to sell the same by public auction, giving six days previous notice of the sale.

or

(2) The proceeds of sale shall be applied in or towards payment of the costs and expenses of the distress and sale, and in or towards payment of the duties due from the distiller, or in respect of any spirits so warehoused and distrained and sold, and the surplus, if any shall be paid to the distiller.

88.-(1) No person shall, without lawful authority or excuse, have in his possession any label, wrapper or mark issued by the Superintendent for use under this Ordinance.

No. 1 of 1903, s. 16 (17).

27. Paragraph (17) of section 16 of the Public Health Amendment and Buildings Ordinance, 1903, as amended by section 4 of Ordinance of the Public Health and Buildings Amendment Ordinance, 1928, is further amended by the insertion of the words "and the prescribing of the fees to be paid in respect of eating-house licences," immediately after the words "and eating-houses".

Objects and Reasons.

1. This Ordinance makes certain amendments in the Liquors Consolidation Ordinance, 1911, Ordinance No. 9 of 1911, which experience has shown to be advisable.

2. Section 2 of this Ordinance amends section 2 of the principal Ordinance as follows :-

(a) In paragraph (8) "the Government Analyst" is altered to "a Government Analyst" because there are more analysts than one in the service of the Government, one of them being attached to the Imports and Exports Department: see also sections 18 and 19 of this Ordinance.

(6) Paragraph (11) is repealed because eating-house licences are now issued by the Head of the Sanitary Department in accordance with Noti- fication No. 600 of the 21st October, 1927: see also sections 8, 25, 26 and 28 of this Ordinance. (c) Paragraph (13) of section 2 of the principal Ordinance provides inter alia that in the case of Chinese spirits 7 catties are to be treated as equivalent to one imperial gallon. This provi- sion is repealed for two reasons. One is that there is no standard catty. The other is that the

volume of a catty's weight of spirit increases as the alcoholic strength increases. The result, therefore, of the provision now to be repealed is that the stronger a spirit is the lower is the duty which is paid on it.

(d) The new paragraph (20A) defines "Person" in the same language as in the Tobacco Ordinance, 1916.

(e) Paragraph (29) is amended so as to give an Assistant Superintendent of Imports and Exports the same power and rights as the Superintendent.

3. Section 3 of this Ordinance adds to section 3 (1) of the principal Ordinance the additional offence of possession by an unlicensed person of any fermenting or fermented material without lawful authority or excuse. The other amendment effected by section 3 is in conformity with Government Notification No. 159 of the 18th March, 1927, which, inter alia, substituted the Superintendent of Imports and Exports for the Captain Superintendent of Police as the licensing authority in the case of distillery licences.

4. Section 4 of this Ordinance substitutes the Superin- tendent of Imports and Exports for the Captain Superin- tendent of Police as the licensing authority under section 4 of the principal Ordinance, which provides for the licensing of stills for medical or scientific purposes.

5. Section 5 of this Ordinance amends section 30 (1) of the principal Ordinance in conformity with Notification No. 159 of the 18th March, 1927, which, inter alia, substituted the Superintendent of Imports and Exports for the Treasurer in the case of dealer's licences. Section 6 of this Ordinance amends section 32 of the principal Ordinance in conformity with the same Notification.

1056

6. Section 7 of this Ordinance repeals sections 31 and 35 of the principal Ordinance because the licensing of eating houses is now dealt with under Ordinance No. 1 of 1993: see Ordinance No. 19 of 1928, section 2 (2), and sectious 2 (6), 25 and 27 of this Ordinance. Eating houses are not allowed to sell intoxicating liquors, and they have therefore no place in a liquors Ordinance.

7. Section 8 of this Ordinance amends section 41 (3) of the principal Ordinance so as to make it subject to the new section 62A which is referred to in paragraph Il below. Section 8 also corrects a clerical error in section 41 (2)(b) of the principal Ordinance.

8. Section 9 of this Ordinance provides a form of ship to ship removal permit and shortens the period for shipment of liquors to twenty-four hours before the time mentioned in the ship's clearance. This shortening is considered desirable for the purpose of lessening the opportunities of committing offences against this Ordi- nance. The section also empowers the Superintendent to demand the production of shipping documents.

9. Section 10 of this Ordinance repeals section 50 of the principal Ordinance because it is intendel in future to deal by means of regulations with the subject of "breaking cases in bonl for the purpose of exporting portious of the contents.

39

10. Section 11 of this Ordinance amends section 54 of the principal Ordinance, with a view to preventing as far as possible the improper use of a permit to move liquor from a ship or to remove liquor for exportation.

11. Section 12 of this Ordinance alds two sections to the principal Ordinance. The new section 62 A introduces સ new system of charging and collecting the duty ou spirits distilled in the Colony. It is based on section 46 of the Spirits Act, 1880, 43 & 44 Vict. c. 24.

             It is so technical that any description of the system would prac- tically have to be a quotation of the section.

The new section 62B gives power to distrain for arrears of duty on spirits distilled in the Colony. It is practically a copy of section 48 of the Spirits Act, 1380.

12. Section 13 of this Ordinance repeals section 70 of the principal Ordinance because it is undesirable that the power to search goods or baggage should be limited to cases in which there is definite cause to suspect that such goods or baggage contain dutiable liquors or denatured spirits.

13. Section 14 of this Ordinance amends section 71 of the principal Ordinance so as to confer upon revenue officers, authorized by the Superintendent in that behalf, power to search any ship, not being or having the status of a ship of war, and to seize remove and detain anything found in any such ship with respect to which the revenue officer has reasonable grounds of suspecting that any offence against Ordinance 9 of 1911 has been committed. This power

is similar to the power conferred upon revenue officers, so authorized, by the Dangerous Drugs Ordinance, 1923, Ordinance No. 22 of 1923, section 7, and by the Opium Ordinance, 1923, Ordinance No. 30 of 1923, section 31.

14. Section 15 of this Ordinance repeals section 73 of the principal Ordinance which requires the Superintendent in the case of an unsuccessful search for intoxicating liquors or other articles liable to forfeiture under that Ordinance to repack or cause to be repacked any goods unpacked during such search and to be responsible for damages caused in the course of such repacking. There is no such provision in the Tobacco Ordinance, 1916,

Ordinance No. 10 of 1916.

>

1057

15. Section 16 of this Ordinance repeals section 76 of the principal Ordinance because the payment of informers and the disposal of things forfeited are rather matters for the Executive.

16. Sections 17 and 18 of this Ordinance amend sections 79 and 80 of the principal Ordinance for the reason given in paragraph 2 (a) above.

17. Section 19 of this Ordinance repeals section 81 of the principal Ordinance, which empowers the Governor to stop proceedings and to order restitution of articles for- feited, as being unusual and unnecessary. There is no such provision in the Tobacco Ordinance, 1916, Ordinance No. 10 of 1916.

18. The proposed new section 87 of the principal Ordinance, to be enacted by section 20 of this Ordinance, makes it necessary for every person to give correct details of any particulars, returns, etc. which he supplies under the Ordinance, at his peril of being guilty of an offence unless he can prove both absence of knowledge of the incorrectness and absence of negligence conducing to it. The present section 87 lays on the prosecution the onus of proving guilty knowledge.

19. Section 21 of this Ordinance inserts a new section, based on section 48 of the Tobacco Ordinance, 1916, Ordi- nauce No. 10 of 1916, which gives power to the Superin- tendent, and to certain specially authorised revenue officers, power to obtain information in certain cases.

This new section, which will be section 87A, will be more restricted than the section in the Tobacco Ordinance in two respects. In the first place, the power will be confined to the Super- intendent and to particular revenue officers authorised in writing by the Superintendent, whereas the section in the Tobacco Ordinance gives the power to all revenue officers. In the second place, a proviso makes it clear that the section will not confer any power of questioning any person who has been charged under the Ordinance, or on whose case the Superintendent has decided to prosecute under the Ordinance.

20. Section 21 of this Ordinance also inserts a new section based on sections 17 and 18 of the Opium Ordi- nance, 1923, Ordinance No 30 of 1923, to prevent the improper possession of labels, wrappers or marks issued by the Superintendent of Imports and Exports, and to prevent the possession of fraudulent imitations of such labels, wrappers or marks.

21. Section 22 of this Ordinance effects amendments in section 89 of Ordinance 9 of 1911, so as to make it similar to section 59 of the Tobacco Ordinance, 1916, but with the additional option given to the magistrate similar to that which is given to him by section 39 (3) of the Opium Ordinance, 1923, Ordinance No. 30 of 1923, of imposing, if he thinks fit, a fine not exceeding two thousand dollars in lieu of a fine not exceeding ten times the duty. The reason for this latter addition is that there are many serious offences, such as keeping an illicit still, or manu- facturing bogus brandy from smuggled spirits of wine, in which very little liquor may be seized.

22. Section 23 of this Ordinance enables the Governor in Council to make regulations in regard to the manufac- ture possession and sale of denatured spirits, in addition to the other matters enumerated in section 95 of the principal Ordinance.

23. Sectious 24 and 25 of this Ordinance remove all references to eating house licences from the Schedules to the principal Ordinance. Eating houses now come under Ordinance No. 1 of 1903.

1058

24. Section 26 of this Ordinance amends the Third Schedule to the principal Ordinance by inserting therein the form of ship to ship removal permit already referred to in paragraph 10 above.

25. Section 27 of this Ordinance amends Ordinance No. 1 of 1903 so as to give the Sanitary Board the power to prescribe the fees to be paid in respect of eating house licences. This is in accordance with the policy referred to in paragraph 6 above. Ordinance No. 19 of 1928, section 4, has already given the Sanitary Board the power to make regulations with regard to eating houses,

From the points thus determined on the two walls lines shall

tion of new section.

be drawn at angles of thirty degrees with the horizontal, and any part of the building (except any chimney or party wall, or any ornamental tower, turret, or other architec- tural feature or decoration, or any parapet not exceeding three feet in height) falling outside such lines shall be deemed illegal: Provided always that in the case of any existing building which already exceeds in height one and a half times the width of the street upon which it abuts, the structure of the roof, or any part thereof, shall not be altered or added to in such a manner that any portion of such structure shall fall out- side lines drawn at angles of thirty degrees with the horizontal from points determined by measuring a full vertical height equal to one and a half time the width of such street on the lines of the main walls in the manner described in this subsection.

(2) In the event of the street on which a building abuts not being level throughout the extent of such building, the height shall be measured from the central point of the external face of the wall abutting on such street.

(3) In any case which does not fall within the foregoing provisions the height of the building shall be determined in such manner as the Building Authority may direct.

Objects and Reasons,

1. The control of eating-houses has been transferred from the Superintendent of Imports and Exports to the Sanitary Board. Section 4 of Ordinance No. 19 of 1928 gave the Sanitary Board power to make regula- tions with regard to eating-houses, but it failed to give the Sanitary Board power to prescribe licence fees. The omission is supplied by section 2 of this Ordi-

nance.

2. It has long been recognised that sections 188 and 189 of the Public Health and Buildings Ordinance, 1903, are not entirely satisfactory. One defect is that while section 188 limits the height of buildings accord- ing to the width of the streets upon which they front, section 189, which prescribes the method of measuring the height of buildings, deals only with the case of buildings which actually abut upon streets and makes no provision for the case of buildings which front, but do not abut, upon a street. Sections 3 and 4 of this Ordinauce assimilate sections 188 and 189 of the prin- cipal Ordinance on this point, and provide for the use of the word abut in both those sections. The special case of buildings which front, but do not abut, upon a street has still to be provided for. The two sections in the principal Ordinance as amended by this Ordinance will deal with this special case by giving discretion to the Building Authority, but this discre- tion is carefully limited in the interests of the building owner by the provision that in the case of a building which does not abut upon a street, but is built on land abutting upon a street, the Building Authority shall have no power to require such building to be of a less height than if it abutted upon the street.

3. Two of the provisions to be inserted at the end of section 188 of the principal Ordinance deal with the special cases of buildings on corner sites and buildings on sites abutting upon more than one street.

1061

4. The third proviso to be inserted at the end of section 188 of the principal Ordinance lays down that the height of a building shall not be regulated by the width of any scavenging lane, or other lane, or open space, upon which such building may abut, if such lane or open space is not to be used as a means of access to some domestic building (other than servants quar- ters).

5. Paragraph (5) of section 188 of the principal Ordinance provides that no domestic building shall exceed four storeys in height, including the ground storey. Storey is defined in section 6 (53) of the prin- cipal Ordinance as meaning a space which has a height of at least 9 feet. Attempts are sometimes made to evade section 188 (5) by making a ground floor of about 8 feet in height. This floor is not technically a storey and the practical result is that the house is five storeys high, using storey in the non-technical sense. This of course leads to surface overcrowding. An attempt is made in this Ordinance to check this evasion by providing that for the purpose of section 188 (5) a storey shall include any space having a clear height of more than 5 feet. This will still allow the provision of a basement. It may be mentioned that paragraph (5) of section 188 of the principal Ordinance is now to become paragraph (6).

6. The paragraph repealed by paragraph (b) of section 3 of this Ordinance is repealed because it is spent.

10 cents for every

$100 or part thereof of the value of the additional substituted se- curity.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The main object of this bill is to carry out one of the recommendations of the recent Stamp Duties Committee. The opportunity has been taken to make certain other amendments also.

2. The present definition of the term "letter of hypothe- cation leaves some slight doubt as to whether shares are included, because the words used in the definition are "movable property." Section 2 of this Ordinance amends the definition so as to refer to "goods, shares, or market- able securities.'

""

3. Exemption (b) to Heading No. 16 in the Schedule to the principal Ordinance exempts "trust receipts given to a banker". The intention evidently was to exempt such documents from stamp duty altogether, but it has been suggested that it might be arguable that a trust receipt given to a banker, while not liable to duty as a declaration of trust, is liable to duty as a mortgage, under the provi- sions of section 8 (3) which lays down that an instrument which is chargeable under more than one heading in the Schedule shall be charged under that heading which im- poses the highest duty. Section 3 of this Ordinance

19

accordingly adds to the definition of the term " mortgage words which exclude from the meaning of that term "trust receipts given to a banker."

1083

4. Section 4 of this Ordinance introduces into section 5 (1) of the principal Ordinance certain words taken from section 1 of the Stamp Act, 1891, 54 & 55 Vict. c. 39, which are desirable for greater accuracy. An example of an exemption not found in the Stamp Ordinance itself is an indenture of apprenticeship to the sea service, which is exempted by section 108 (1) of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1894.

5. Section 5 of this Ordinance adds two classes to the persons who are exempt from the obligation to take out annual certificates to practise. The two classes are (1) Professors of the Medical Faculty of the University of Hong Kong, and (2) any persons exempted by the Governor in Council on the ground that the whole of their time is at the disposal of some charitable institution.

6. Section 6 of this Ordinance introduces a section unanimously recommended by the recent Stamp Duties Committee. It is intended to prevent the passing on of dividends to unregistered shareholders.

7. The effect of section 7 of this Ordinauce will be that the stamp duty on an instrument of apprenticeship will in future be $1 instead of $20. The duty in England is 2s.

6d.

8. Section 8 of this Ordinance expands Heading No. 16 in the Schedule to the principal Ordinance so as to make it clearly apply to certain declarations of trust about which there might otherwise be some question.

9. Heading No. 15 in the Schedule to the principal Ordinance originally had a scale divided into two parts. This, however, was very soon altered, as Ordinance No. 21 of 1921 made the stamp duty $1 per $100 in all cases. Heading No. 15 deals with the stamp duty on conveyance on sale

It seem obvious that the stamp duty on foreclo- sure orders, which is dealt with in Heading No. 21, should have been altered at the same time. This was overlooked. Section 9 of this Ordinance now remedies that omission.

10. Heading No. 24 in the Schedule to the principal Ordinance, which deals with the stamp duty on leases, does not provide for the case where the term of the lease is indefinite. Section 10 of this Ordinance supplies this omission. The words adopted are mainly based upon the judgment of Hamilton J. in Mount Edgcumbe v. Inland Revenue Commissioners (1911) 2 K.B. 24.

il. Heading No. 24 in the Schedule to the principal Ordinance is open to another objection also, in that it makes the stamp duty on the surrender of a lease the same as the duty on the lease This seems to be inequitable and might work considerable hardship in some cases. Apparently in England the stamp duty would be only the ordinary deed stamp of 10s. Section of this Ordinance makes the stamp duty ou surrender of a lease the same duty as would be payable on a lease for the residue of the term surrendered, any consideration for surrender being regarded as premium.

12. Heading No. 29 (2) in the Schedule to the Stamp Ordinance makes the stamp duty on any additional or sub- stituted security 10 cents for every $100 of the principal sum secured. This seems unnecessarily heavy, as the value of any additional security might be quite small in comparison with the total sum secured. Accordingly section 12 of this Ordinance provides that the duty in such a case shall be 10 cents for every $100 of the value of the additional or substituted security. Section 12 also alters the language of the second column of this sub-head- ing which left something to be desired.

This provi- sion is repealed for two reasons. One is that there is no standard catty. The other is that the volume of a catty's weight of spirit increases as the alcoholic strength increases. The result, therefore, of ti e provision How to be repealed is that the stronger a spirit is the lower is the duty which is paid on it.

3. Section 3 of this Ordinance adds to section 3 (1) of the principal Ordinance the additional offence of possession by an unlicensed person of any fermenting or fermented The other material without lawful authority or excuse. amendment effected by section 3 is in conformity with Government Notification No. 159 of the 18th March, 1927, which, inter alia, substituted the Superintendent of Imports and Exports for the Captain Superintendent of Police as the licensing authority in the case of distillery licences.

4. Section 4 of this Ordinance substitutes the Superin- tendent of Imports and Exports for the Captain Superin- tendent of Police as the licensing authority under section 4 of the principal Ordinance, which provides for the licensing of stills for medical or scientific purposes.

5. Section 5 of this Ordinance amends section 30 (1) of the principal Ordinance in conformity with Notification No. 159 of the 18th March, 1927, which, inter alia, substituted the Superintendent of Imports and Exports for the Treasurer in the case of dealer's licences. Section 6 of this Ordinance amends section 32 of the principal Ordinance in conformity with the same Notification.

-1092.

6. Section 7 of this Ordinance repeals sections 34 and 35 of the principal Ordinance because the licensing of eating houses is now dealt with under Ordinance. No. 1 of 1903: see Ordinance No. 19 of 1928, scction 2. (2), and sections 2 (6), 24, 25 and 27 of this Ordinance. Eating houses are not allowed to sell intoxicating liquors, and they have therefore no place in a liquors Ordinance.

7. Section 8 of this Ordinance amends section 41 (8) of the principal Ordinance so as to make it subject to the new section 62A which is referred to in paragraph 11 below. Section 8 also corrects a clerical error in section 41 (2) (b) of the principal Ordinance.

8. Section 9 of this Ordinance provides a form of ship to ship removal permit and shortens the period for shipment of liquors to twenty-four hours before the time mentioned in the ship's clearance. This shortening is considered desirable for the purpose of lessening the opportunities of committing offences against this Ordi- nance. The section also empowers the Superintendent to demand the production of shipping documents.

9. Section 10 of this Ordinance repeals section 50 of the principal Ordinance because it is intended in future to deal by means of regulations with the subject of "breaking" cases in bond for the purpose of exporting portions of the contents.

10. Section 11 of this Ordinance amends section 54 of the principal Ordinance, with a view to preventing as far as possible the improper use of a permit to move liquor from a ship or to remove liquor for exportation.

11. Section 12 of this the principal Ordinance.

Ordinance adds two sections to The new section 62A introduces a new system of charging and collecting the duty on spirits distilled in the Colony. It is based on section 46 of the Spirits Act, 1880, 43 & 44 Vict. c. 24.

                 It is so technical that any description of the system would prac- tically have to be a quotation of the section.

                The new section 62B gives power to distrain for arrears of duty on spirits distilled in the Colony. It is practically a copy of section 48 of the Spirits Act, 1880.

12. Section 13 of this Ordinance repeals section 70 of the principal Ordinance because it is undesirable that the power to search goods or baggage should be limited to cases in which there is definite cause to suspect that such goods or baggage contain dutiable liquors or denatured spirits.

13. Section 14 of this Ordinance amends section 71 of the principal Ordinance so 25 to confer upon revenue officers, authorized by the Superintendent in that behalf, power to search any ship, not being or having the status of a ship of war, and to seize remove and detain anything found in any such ship with respect to which the revenue officer has reasonable grounds of suspecting that any offence against Ordinance 9 of 1911 has been committed. This power is similar to the power conferred upon revenue officers, so authorized, by the Dangerous Drugs Ordinance, 1922, Ordinance No. 22 of 1923, section 7, and by the Opium Ordinance, 1923, Ordinance No. 30 of 1923, section 31.

14. Section 15 of this Ordinance repeals section 73 of the principal Ordinance which requires the Superintendent in the case of an unsuccessful search for intoxicating liquors or other articles liable to forfeiture under that Ordinance to repack or cause to be repacked any goods unpacked during such search and to be responsible for damages caused in the course of such repacking,

-+

There

18 no such provision in the Tobacco Ordinance, 1916, Ordinance No. 10 of 1916.

1093

15. Section 16 of this Ordinance repeuls section 76 of the principal Ordinance because the payment of informers and the disposal of things forfeited are rather matters for the Executive.

16. Sections 17 and 18 of this Ordinance amend sectious 79 and 80 of the principal Ordinance for the reason given in paragraph 2 (a) above.

17. Section 19 of this Ordinance repeals section 81 of the principal Ordinance, which empowers the Governor to stop proceedings and to order restitution of articles for- feited, as being unusual and unnecessary. There is no such provision in the Tobacco Ordinance, 1916, Ordinance No. 10 of 1916.

18. The proposed new section 87 of the principal Ordinance, to be enacted by section 20 of this Ordinance, makes it necessary for every person to give correct details of any particulars, returns, etc. which he supplies under the Ordinance, at his peril of being guilty of an offence unless he can prove both absence of knowledge of the incorrectness and absence of negligence conducing to it. The present section 87 lays on the prosecution the onus of proving guilty knowledge.

19. Section 21 of this Ordinance inserts a new section, based on section 48 of the Tobacco Ordinance, 1916, Ordi- nance No. 10 of 1916, which gives power to the Superin- tendent, and to certain specially authorised revenue officers, power to obtain information in certain cases. This new section, which will be section 87A, will be more restricted than the section in the Tobacco Ordinance in two respects. In the first place, the power will be confined to the Super- intendent and to particular revenue officers authorised in writing by the Superintendent, whereas the section in the Tobacco Ordinance gives the power to all revenue officers. In the second place, a proviso makes it clear that the section will not confer any power of questioning any person who has been charged under the Ordinance, or on whose case the Superintendent has decided to prosecute under the Ordinance.

20. Section 1 of this Ordinance also inserts a new section based on sections 17 and 18 of the Opium Ordi- nance, 1923, Ordinance No. 30 of 1923, to prevent the improper possession of labels, wrappers or marks issued by the Superintendent of Imports and Exports, and to prevent the possession of fraudulent imitations of such labels, wrappers or marks.

21. Section 22 of this Ordinance effects amendments in section 89 of Ordinance 9 of 1911, so as to make it similar to section 59 of the Tobacco Ordinance, 1916, but with the additional option given to the magistrate similar to that which is given to him by section 39 (3) of the Opium Ordinance, 1923, Ordinance No. 30 of 1923, of imposing, if he thinks fit, a fine not exceeding two thousand dollars in lieu of a fine not exceeding ten times the duty. The reason for this latter addition is that there are many serious offences, such as keeping an illicit still, or manu- facturing bogus brandy from smuggled spirits of wine, in which very little liquor may be seized.

22. Section 23 of this Ordinance enables the Governor in Council to make regulations in regard to the manufac- tare possession and sale of denatured spirits, in addition to the other matters enumerated in section 95 of the principal Ordinance.

23. Sections 24 aud 25 of this Ordinance remove all references to eating house licences from the Schedules to the principal Ordinance. Eating houses now come under Ordinance No. 1 of 1903.

1094

24. Section 26 of this Ordinance amends the Third Schedule to the principal Ordinance by inserting therein the form of ship to ship removal permit already referred to in paragraph 10 above.

25. Section 27 of this Ordinance amends Ordinance No. 1 of 1903 so as to give the Sanitary Board the power to prescribe the fees to be paid in respect of eating house licences. This is in accordance with the policy referred to in paragraph 6 above. Ordinance No. 19 of 1928, section 4, has already given the Sanitary Board the power to make regulations with regard to eating houses.

(a) in the event of any building being hereafter erected or re-erected on a corner site so as to abut upon more than one street, or in the event of any building on a corner site being increased in height, the height of such building shall be regulated by the widest or wider of the streets upon which it abuts, so far as it abuts or will abut upon such widest or wider street, and also so far as it abuts or will abut upon the narrower streets or street to a distance of fifty feet from the widest or wider street: (b) in the event of any building being hereafter erected or re-crected so as to abut upon more that one street although not on a corner site, or in the event of any such building being increased in height, the height of the several parts of such building shall be regulated by the widths of the streets upon which they respec- tively abut:

(c) in no case shall the height of a build- ing or of any portion of it be regula- ted by the width of any scavenging lane, or other lane, or open space, upon which such building may abut if such lane or open space is not used or intended to be used as a means of access to a domestic build- ing other than servants quarters."

5. Section 189 of the Public Health and Buildings Ordinance, 1903, is repealed, and the following section is substituted therefor :-

Method of determination of height of buildings.

"189.-(1) Whenever it is possible to do so the height of any building shall be deter- mined by measuring on the line of the wall abutting upon the street which regulates the height, from the level of such street, the full vertical height allowed by section 188. Such full vertical height shall also be mea- sured from the level of such street on the line of the nearest main wall of the same building opposite to the wall abutting on the street, except where such opposite wall abuts upon another street. From the points thus determined on the 'wo walls lines shall be drawn at angles of thirty degrees with the horizontal, and any part of the building (except any chimney or party wall, or any ornamental tower, turret, or other architec- tural feature or decoration, or any parapet not exceeding three feet in height) falling outside such lines shall be deemed illegal : Provided always that in the case of any existing building which already exceeds in

}

1099

height one and a half times the width of the street upon which it abuts, the structure of the roof, or any part thereof, shall not be altered or added to in such a manner that any portion of such structure shall fall out- side lines drawn at angles of thirty degrees with the horizontal from points determined by measuring a full vertical height equal to one and a half time the width of such street on the lines of the main walls in the manner described in this subsection.

(2) In the event of the street on which a building abuts not being level throughout the extent of such building, the height shall be measured from the central point of the external face of the wall abutting on such

street.

(3) In any case which does not fall within the foregoing provisions the height of the building shall be determined in such manner as the Building Authority may direct.

Objects and Reasons.

1. With a view to the reorganization of the medical and sanitary services of the Colony, it is considered desirable to associate the Director of Medical and Sani- tary Services more closely with the working of the Sanitary Department, and in order that he may have the opportunity of acquiring first-hand knowledge of the working of that department it has been decided to place him on the Sanitary Board instead of the Medical Officer of Health. When the Director of Medical and Sanitary Services has replaced the Medical Officer of Health as a member of the Sanitary Board the Govern- ment will await such recommendations from him in the public health administration as his experience of the working of the Sanitary Department may prompt him to make. Section 2 of this Ordinance accordingly amends section 8 of the principal Ordinance so as to make the Director of Medical and Sanitary Services a member of the Sanitary Board in place of the Medical Officer of Health.

2. The control of eating-houses has been transferred from the Superintendent of Imports and Exports to the Sanitary Board Section 4 of Ordinance No. 19 of 1928 gave the Sanitary Board power to make regula- tions with regard to eating-houses, but it failed to give the Sanitary Board power to prescribe licence fees. The omission is supplied by section 3 of this Ordi-

nance.

3. It has long been recognised that sections 188 and 189 of the Public Health and Buildings Ordinance, 1903, are not entirely satisfactory. One defect is that while section 188 limits the height of buildings accord- ing to the width of the streets upon which they front, section 189, which prescribes the method of measuring the height of buildings, deals only with the case of buildings which actually abut upon streets and makes no provision for the case of buildings which front, but do not abut, upon a street. Sections 4 and 5 of this Ordinance assimilate sections 188 and 189 of the prin- cipal Ordinance on this point, and provide for the use of the word "abut" in both those sections. The special case of buildings which front, but do not abut,

1100

upon a street has still to be provided for. The two sections in the principal Ordinance as amended by this Ordinance will deal with this special case by giving discretion to the Building Authority, but this discre- tion is carefully limited in the interests of the building owner by the provision that in the case of a building which does not abut upon a street, but is built on land abutting upon a street, the Building Authority shall have no power to require such building to be of a less height than if it abutted upon the street.

4. Two of the provisions to be inserted at the end of section 188 of the principal Ordinance deal with the special cases of buildings on corner sites and buildings on sites abutting upon more than one street.

5. The third proviso to be inserted at the end of section 188 of the principal Ordinance lays down that the height of a building shall not be regulated by the width of any scavenging lane, or other lane, or open space, upon which such building may abut, if such lane or open space is not to be used as a means of access to some domestic building (other than servants quar- ters).

6. Paragraph (5) of section 188 of the principal Ordinance provides that no domestic building shall exceed four storeys in height, including the ground storey. Storey is defined in section 6 (53) of the prin- cipal Ordinance as meaning a space which has a height of at least 9 feet. Attempts are sometimes made to evade section 188 (5) by making a ground floor of about 8 feet in height. This floor is not technically a storey and the practical result is that the house is five storeys high, using storey in the non-technical sense. This of course leads to overcrowding. An attempt is made in this Ordinance to check this evasion by provi- ding that for the purpose of section 188 (5) a storey shall include any space having a clear height of more than 5 feet. This will still allow the provision of a basement. It may be mentioned that paragraph (5) of section 188 of the principal Ordinance is now to become paragraph (6).

7. The paragraph repealed by paragraph (b) of section of this Ordinance is repealed because it is

spent.

2. Section 113 of the Companies Ordinance, 1911, as Amendment amended by section 8 of the Companies Amendment Ordi- of Ordinance nance, 1925, is further amended by the insertion of the No. 58 of

                         1911, s. 113 following words at the end of sub-section (1):

(1). Ordinance

The list thus published shall be divided into two No. 15 of parts. The first part shall contain the names of 1925. persons qualified to perform the duties required by this Ordinance to be performed by an auditor where the accounts are kept in English and the second part shall contain the names of such per- sons as are qualified to perform the duties where the accounts are kept in Chinese. Where the accounts of a company are kept in English no person shall be appointed auditor unless his name appears in the first part of the list, and where the accounts of a company are kept in Chinese no person shall be appointed auditor unless his name appears in the second part of the list. Every company which keeps its accounts partly in English and partly in Chinese shall have its accounts audited as to that part which is kept in English by a person whose name appears in the first part of the list and as to that part of its accounts which are kept in Chinese by a person whose name appears in the second part of the list.

3. The Companies Ordinance, 1911, is amended by the Insertion of addition of the following section immediately after section 273:

274.-(1) Notwithstanding anything con- tained in sections 35, 36 or 37, a China com- pany having a share capital may, if so autho- rised by its articles, cause to be kept in the United Kingdom or any British possession or British protectorate a branch register of mem- bers, in this Ordinance called a

     * branch register".

(2) The company shall give to the Regis- trar of Companies notice of the situation of the office where any branch register is kept, and of any change in its situation, and of the discontinuance of the branch register in the event of its being discontinued.

(3) A branch register shall be deemed to be part of the company's register of members (in this section called "the principal register ").

new section

274 in Ordinance No. 58 of 1911.

1102

(4) A branch register shall be kept in the same manner in which the principal register is by this Ordinance required to be kept, except that the advertisement before closing the register shall be inserted in some newspaper cirenlating in the district wherein the branch register is kept.

(5) The company shall transmit to its regis- tered office a copy of every entry in its branch register as soon as may be after the entry is made, and shall cause to be kept at its regis- tered office, duly entered up from time to time, a duplic te of its branch register, and the duplicate shail, for all the purposes of this Ordinance, be deemed to be part of the prin- cipal register.

(6) Subject to the provisions of this section with respect to the duplicate register, the shares registered in a branch register shall be distinguished from the shares registered in the principal register, and no transaction with respect to any shares registered in a branch register shall, during the continuance of that branch register, be registered in any other register.

(7) The company may discontinue any branch register and thereupon all entries in that brauch register shall be transferred to some other branch register kept by the com- pany in the same district or to the principal register.

(8) Subject to the provisions of this Ordi- nance, any company may, by its articles, make such provisions as it thinks fit for the keeping of branch registers.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The main object of this bill is to enable China com- panies to keep branch registers in the United Kingdom or in any British possession, although they carry on no business in the place where the branch register is to be kept. This privilege was asked for by some very promi- nent members of the Shanghai mercantile community and the proposal has been approved by the British authorities in China and by the Secretary of State for the Colonies.

2. This amendment is effected by section 3 of this Ordinance, which is based on section 37 of Ordinance No. 155 (Companies) of the Ordinances of the Straits Settle- ments. That precedent has been departed from in one respect. The section in the Straits Settlements Ordinance gives power only to keep a branch register "of members resident in" the place where the branch register is kept. This would appear to be an undesirable limitation, as it would be difficult to ensure that the shares on the branch register should always be held by persons resident in the place where the register was kept, especially as residence is sometimes a difficult question.

3. Section 2 of this Ordinance gives statutory authority to a practice which already exists in Hong Kong and which is obviously necessary. It provides for the list of authorised auditors being divided into two parts, one for persons qualified to audit accounts kept in English and the other for persons qualified to andit accounts kept in Chinese.

4. It may be mentioned that an order of His Majesty in Council made on the 5th July, 1929, enables companies registered in the United Kingdom to keep brauch registers in China. This Order in Council was published in the London Gazette of the 12th July, 1929, and in the Hong Kong Gazette of the 30th August, 1929.

(9) Sub-section (1) shall not apply so as to prevent the owner or master of any vessel, other than such vessels as are referred to in sub-section (8), from having on board such arms and ammunition as are reasonably neces- sary for the protection of such vessel, but this exemption shall not apply in the case of any vessel (a) which regularly includes in its ports of call any place on the east coast of Asia between Vladivostok and Singapore inclusive, or any place on any river flowing into the sea on the east coast of Asia between Vladivostok and Singapore, or any place in Formosa, and (b) the usual extreme trading limits of which do not extend beyond the places specified above.

this Ordinance.

10. This Ordinance shall come into force on the 1st Commence-

                                   ment, day of January, 1930.

1106

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 2 of this Ordinance amends the definition of the term "ammunition "in the principal Ordinance. The main object of the amendment is to include gas ammuni- tion, but the definition is made more comprehensive in other ways also.

2. Section 3 of this Ordinance amends the definition of the term 66

arms in the principal Ordinance, so as to include weapons intended for discharging gas ammunition.

3. Section 4 of this Ordinance amends the definition of the term "exempted person" in the principal Ordinance. The list of exempted persons at present is very large, and the result is that there are a great many firearms in the Colony of which the police know nothing. No doubt many of the persons exempt at present keep with the greatest care any firearms which they may possess, but others may be more careless, and their firearms may be stolen and may get into the hands of armed robbers and other criminals. The control of firearms is very strict in England now, and it seems desirable that we should follow that example here. The new list of exempted persons will be a very restricted one, except of course that members of the naval, military, air, volunteer, police and district watch services will be exempted in respect of the arms and ammunition used by them in connection with their duties.

4. Section 5 of this Ordinance amends section 4 of the principal Ordinance in order to carry out the same policy of greater restriction in the number of persons entitled to possess firearms. The section deals inter alia with the question of firearms on board vessels. The present general provision on this subject is that the owner or master of any vessel may have on board "such arms and ammuni- tion as are reasonably necessary for the protection of such vessel". Sub-section (9) of the proposed new section 4 will take out of this exemption vessels which regularly include in their ports of call any place on the East Coast of Asia between Vladivostok and Singapore, or any place on any river flowing into the sea on the East Coast of Asia between Vladivostok and Singapore, or any place in Formosa, provided that the usual extreme trading limits of such vessels do not extend beyond the places specified above. Such vessels will not be allowed to carry arms while within the waters of the Colony except under licence from the Inspector General of Police, which is to be the new title of the Captain Superintendent of Police. The vessels in question are those which trade in regions where the risk of piracy exists. This control of the arms on vessels trading within the piracy zones will not be a new thing, as it was applied during the currency of the Piracy Prevention Ordinance, and gave rise to no inconvenience. Junks and other similar vessels have a special provision to themselves. They are allowed to have their arms and ammunition on board if such arms and ammunition are enumerated in the licence or clearance, and are reasonably necessary for the protection of the vessel.

5. Section 6 of this Ordinance amends section 8 of the principal Ordinance by the substitution of the word "similar" for the word "Chinese" in the third line. The section in the principal Ordinance deals with the case of arms or ammunition found on board "any steam launch or motor boat, or junk or other Chinese vessel", and it throws a certain onus in that event on the master and other persons on board. The amendment is made because it is not a question of whether the vessel in question is Chinese or non-Chinese but whether it is of a certain type.

6. The title of the office of Captain Superintendent of Police is about to be changed to that of Inspector General of Police. Section 7 of this Ordinance substitutes the new title throughout the principal Ordinance.

}

1107

7. Section 8 of this Ordinance deletes in section 28 of the principal Ordinance the references to the Deputy and Assistant Superintendents of Police, because the matter will be dealt with generally in the new section referred to in the following paragraph.

8. Section 9 of this Ordinance inserts in the principal Ordinance, a new section 33 which provides that the various officers of the police force not below the rank of Assistant Superintendent shall have all the powers con- ferred on the Inspector General of Police by or under the principal Ordinance.

9. The commencement of the Ordinance is postponed until the 1st January, 1930, because that is the day when the new title of the Captain Superintendent of Police will come into use.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Crown Lands

Resumption Ordinance, 1900.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hong Kong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Crown Lands Short title. Resumption Amendment Ordinance, 1929.

2. Section 16 of the Crown Lands Resumption Ordi- Repeal of nance, 1900, is repealed and the following section is Ordinance substituted therefor :-

No. 10 of 1900,

of new section. remuneration awarded against the Crown, shall be paid out of the general revenue.

(2) It shall be lawful for the Director of Public Works, after the making of any award whether already made or hereafter to be made under this Ordinance, to cause to be inserted in the Gazette a notification that an award has been made, and such notification shall appoint a government officer to pay the com- pensation awarded, and a place at which, and a time within which, such compensation shall be paid.

(3) Any sum of money awarded as com- pensation shall bear interest at the rate of eight per cent per annum from the date of the resumption of the land until the expiration of the time appointed as aforesaid. Except as hereinbefore mentioned, no interest shall be payable on any sum awarded as compensation. No interest shall be payable on any costs or remuneration.

Ordinance

No. 5 of 1929.

1108

(4) If no claim be made for the compensa- tion money at the place, and within the time, appointed, the officer appointed as aforesaid shall cause such money to be paid into the Treasury.

(5) The money thus paid into the Treasury or any part of it may, within a period of five years from the expiration of the time referred to in section (2), be claimed by the person entitled thereto and upon such claim being substantiated shall be paid to the person so entitled.

(6) At the expiration of the said period of five years the money or such part of it as remains unpaid shall be transferred to the general revenue of the Colony and shall be dealt with in accordauce with the provisions of the Unclaimed Balances Ordinance, 1929.

Objects and Reasons.

Section 16 of the Crown Lands Resumption Ordi- nance, 1900, Ordinance No. 10 of 1900, provides that compensation and costs awarded under the Ordinance "shall bear interest at the rate of eight per cent. per annum from the date of the resumption of the land until payment". It is reasonable that the former owner of land resumed under the Ordinance should receive interest during such period as he is kept out of his land and also It is, out of any compensation in respect of the land. however, not reasonable that this interest should run on indefinitely, and that the inaction, or intentional delay, of the person entitled to the compensation should oblige the Crown to go on paying interest indefinitely. Apparently the effect of the Ordinance is that the claimant can make the interest run on indefinitely by simply not demanding payment. The object of this Ordinance is to fix a time after which the interest will not run. It provides that when an award is made a Gazette notice shall specify a time within which the compensation is to be paid. If the claimant fails to apply for the money within that time, it will be paid into the Treasury and will cease to bear interest.

Whereas it appears to the Governor in Council that ..should be prohibited under the provisions of the Deportation Ordinance, 1917, from being within the Colony for the of years (or for life) from the date hereof:

space

The Governor in Council doth hereby by virtue of the said Ordinance order that the above-named person be prohibited and the said person is hereby prohibited from being in the Colony for the space of time aforesaid from the said date, and doth further order that the period of .......days from the said date be fixed as the time within which the said person shall depart from the Colony aforesaid.

This order is made under sub-section..................of section 3 of the Deportation Ordinance, 1917.

Clerk of Councils.

1110

Objects and Reasons.

1. The object of this Ordinance is to amend section 3 (2) of the Deportation Ordinance, 1917, so as to make it agree with the form of the Aliens Order, 1920, which is in force in the United Kingdom. In future the sub-section will read :--

3.-(2) The Governor in Council may at any time summarily issue a deportation order against any person who in his opinion is an alien, if he deems it to be conducive to the public good that such an order should be issued.

2. It has been held in various cases that the Secretary of State when making a deportation order under the Aliens Order is not required to justify in a court of law his reasons for making the order, and is not bound to hold any inquiry or even to give the person concerned an opportunity of being heard. In Ex parte Bressler (1924) 88 J.P. 89 (C.A.), however, the Court of Appeal ex- pressed the opinion that it is desirable that the deportation order in such a case should contain a reference to show under what particular statutory provision it was made. This point is dealt with in the new Form No. 7A inserted in the principal Ordinance by section 5 of this Ordinance. Sections 3 and 4 of this Ordinance deal with the same point.

Ordinance

No. 1 of 1903, s. 189, and substitu-

5. Section 189 of the Public Health and Buildings Repeal of Ordinance, 1903, is repealed, and the following section is substituted therefor :-

Method of determination of height of buildings.

"189.-(1) Whenever it is possible to do so the height of any building shall be deter- mined by measuring on the line of the wall abutting upon the street which regulates the height, from the level of such street, the full vertical height allowed by section 188. Such full vertical height shall also be mea- sured from the level of such street on the line of the nearest main wall of the same building opposite to the wall abutting on the street, except where such opposite wall abuts upon another street. From the points thus determined on the two walls lines shall be drawn at angles of thirty degrees with the horizontal, and any part of the building (except any chimney or party wall, or any ornamental tower, turret, or other architec- tural feature or decoration, or any parapet not exceeding three feet in height) falling outside such lines shall be deemed illegal: Provided always that in the case of any existing building which already exceeds in

tion of new section.

1126

height one and a half times the width of the street upon which it abuts, the structure of the roof, or any part thereof, shall not be altered or added to in such a manner that any portion of such structure shall fall out- side lines drawn at angles of thirty degrees with the horizontal from points determined by measuring a full vertical height equal to one and a half time the width of such street on the lines of the main walls in the manner described in this subsection.

(2) In the event of the street on which a building abuts not being level throughout the extent of such building, the height shall be measured from the central point of the external face of the wall abutting on such

street.

(3) In any case which does not fall within the foregoing provisions the height of the building shall be determined in such manner as the Building Authority may direct.

Objects and Rensons,

1. With a view to the reorganization of the medical and sanitary services of the Colony, it is considered desirable to associate the Director of Medical and Sani- tary Services more closely with the working of the Sanitary Department, and in order that he may have the opportunity of acquiring first-hand knowledge of the working of that department it has been decided to place him on the Sanitary Board instead of the Medical Officer of Health. When the Director of Medical and Sanitary Services has replaced the Medical Officer of Health as a member of the Sanitary Board the Govern- ment will await such recommendations from him in the public health administration as his experience of the working of the Sanitary Department may prompt him to make. Section 2 of this Ordinance accordingly amends section 8 of the principal Ordinance so as to make the Director of Medical and Sanitary Services a member of the Sanitary Board in place of the Medical Officer of Health.

2. The control of eating-honses has been transferred from the Superintendent of Imports and Exports to the Sanitary Board Section 4 of Ordinance No. 19 of 1928 gave the Sanitary Board power to make regula- tions with regard to eating-houses, but it failed to give the Sanitary Board power to prescribe licence fees. The omission is supplied by section 3 of this Ordi-

nance.

3. It has long been recognised that sections 188 and 189 of the Public Health and Buildings Ordinance, 1903, are not entirely satisfactory. One defect is that while section 188 limits the height of buildings accord- ing to the width of the streets upon which they front, section 189, which prescribes the method of measuring the height of buildings, deals only with the case of buildings which actually abut upon streets and makes no provision for the case of buildings which front, but do not abut, upon a street. Sections 4 and 5 of this Ordinance assimilate sections 188 and 189 of the prin- cipal Ordinance on this point, and provide for the use of the word abut" in both those sections. The special case of buildings which front, but do not abut,

1127

upon a street has still to be provided for. The two sections in the principal Ordinance as amended by this Ordinance will deal with this special case by giving discretion to the Building Authority, but this discre- tion is carefully limited in the interests of the building owner by the provision that in the case of a building which does not abut upon a street, but is built on land abutting upon a street, the Building Authority shall have no power to require such building to be of a less height than if it abutted upon the street.

4. Two of the provisions to be inserted at the end of section 188 of the principal Ordinance deal with the special cases of buildings on corner sites and buildings on sites abutting upon more than one street.

5. The third proviso to be inserted at the end of section 188 of the principal Ordinance lays down that the height of a building shall not be regulated by the width of any scavenging lane, or other lane, or open space, upon which such building may abut, if such lane or open space is not to be used as a means of access to some domestic building (other than servants quar- ters).

6. Paragraph (5) of section 188 of the principal Ordinance provides that no domestic building shall exceed four storeys in height, including the ground storey. Storey is defined in section 6 (53) of the prin- cipal Ordinance as meaning a space which has a height of at least 9 feet. Attempts are sometimes made to evade section 188 (5) by making a ground floor of about 8 feet in height. This floor is not technically a storey and the practical result is that the house is five storeys high, using storey in the non-technical sense. This of course leads to overcrowding. An attempt is

made in this Ordinance to check this evasion by provi- ding that for the purpose of section 188 (5) a storey shall include any space having a clear height of more than 5 feet. This will still allow the provision of a basement. It may be mentioned that paragraph (5) of section 188 of the principal Ordinance is now to become paragraph (6).,

7. The paragraph repealed by paragraph (b) of section 4 of this Ordinance is repealed because it is spent.

An Ordinance to amend further the Companies

Ordinance, 1911.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hong Kong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Companies Amendment Ordinance, 1929.

2. Section 113 of the Companies Ordinance, 1911, as amended by section 8 of the Companies Amendment Ordi- nance, 1925, is further amended by the insertion of the following words at the end of sub-section (1) :-

The list thus published shall be divided into two parts. The first part shall contain the names of persons qualified to perform the duties required by this Ordinance to be performed by an auditor where the accounts are kept in English and the second part shall contain the names of such per- sous as are qualified to perform the duties where the accounts are kept in Chinese. Where the accounts of a company are kept in English no person shall be appointed auditor unless his name appears in the first part of the list, and where the accounts of a company are kept in Chinese no person shall be appointed auditor unless his name appears in the second part of the list. Every company which keeps its accounts partly in English and partly in Chinese shall have its accounts audited as to that part which is kept in English by a person whose name appears in the first part of the list and as to that part of its accounts which are kept in Chinese by a person whose name appears in the second part of the list.

3. The Companies Ordinance, 1911, is amended by the addition of the following section immediately after section 273-

274.-(1) Notwithstanding anything con- tained in sections 35, 36 or 37, a China com- pany having a share capital may, if so autho- rised by its articles, cause to be kept in the United Kingdom or any British possession or British protectorate a branch register of mem- bers, in this Ordinance called a "brauch register".

(2) The company shall give to the Regis- trar of Companies notice of the situation of the office where any branch register is kept, and of any change in its situation, and of the discontinuance of the branch register in the event of its being discontinued.

(3) A branch register shall be deemed to be part of the company's register of members (in this section called the principal register").

7

1129

(4) A branch register shall be kept in the same manner in which the principal register is by this Ordinance required to be kept, except that the advertisement before closing the register shall be inserted in some newspaper circulating in the district wherein the branch register is kept.

(5) The company shall transmit to its regis- tered office a copy of every entry in its branch register as soon as may be after the entry is made, and shall cause to be kept at its regis- tered office, duly entered up from time to time, a duplicate of its branch register, and the duplicate shall, for all the purposes of this Ordinance, he deemed to be part of the prin- cipal register.

(6) Subject to the provisions of this section with respect to the duplicate register, the shares registered in a branch register shall be distinguished from the shares registered in the principal register, and no transaction with respect to any shares registered in a branch register shall, during the continuance of that branch register, be registered in any other register.

(7) The company may discontinue any branch register and thereupon all entries in that branch register shall be transferred to some other branch register kept by the com- pany in the same district or to the principal register.

(8) Subject to the provisions of this Ordi- nance, any company may, by its articles, make such provisions as it thinks fit for the keeping of branch registers.

Objects and Reasons.

no

1. The main object of this bill is to enable China com- panies to keep branch registers in the United Kingdom or in any British possession, although they carry on business in the place where the branch register is to be kept. This privilege was asked for by some very promi- nent members of the Shangbai mercantile community and the proposal has been approved by the British authorities in China and by the Secretary of State for the Colonies.

2. This amendment is effected by section 3 of this Ordinance, which is based on section 37 of Ordinance No. 155 (Companies) of the Ordinances of the Straits Settle- ments. That precedent has been departed from in one respect. The section in the Straits Settlements Ordinance gives power only to keep a branch register "of members resident in " the place where the branch register is kept. This would appear to be an undesirable limitation, as it would be difficult to ensure that the shares on the branch register should always be held by persons resident in the place where the register was kept, especially as residence is sometimes a difficult question.

3. Section 2 of this Ordinance gives statutory authority to a practice which already exists in Hong Kong and which is obviously necessary. It provides for the list of anthorised auditors being divided into two parts, one for persons qualified to audit accounts kept in English and the other for persons qualified to audit accounts kept in Chinese.

4. It may be mentioned that an order of His Majesty in Council made on the 5th July, 1929, enables companies registered in the United Kingdom to keep branch registers in China. This Order in Council was published in the London Gazette of the 12th July, 1929, and in the Hong Kong Gazette of the 30th August, 1929.

Police.

10. This Ordinance shall come into force on the 1st day of January, 1930.

1133

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 2 of this Ordinance amends the definition of the term "ammunition" in the principal Ordinance. The main object of the amendment is to include gas ammuni- tion, but the definition is made more comprehensive in other ways also.

99

2. Section 3 of this Ordinance amends the definition of the term "arms in the principal Ordinance, so as to include weapons intended for discharging gas ammunition.

3. Section 4 of this Ordinance amends the definition of the term "6 exempted person in the principal Ordinance. The list of exempted persons at present is very large, and the result is that there are a great many firearms in the Colony of which the police know nothing. No doubt many of the persons exempt at present keep with the greatest care any firearms which they may possess, but others may be more careless, and their firearms may be stolen and may get into the bands of armed robbers and other criminals. The control of firearms is very strict in England now,

                     and it seems desirable that we should follow that example here. The new list of exempted persons will be a very restricted one, except of course that members of the naval, military, air, volunteer, police and district watch services will be exempted in respect of the arms and ammunition used by them in connection with their duties.

4. Section 5 of this Ordinance amends section 4 of the principal Ordinance in order to carry out the same policy of greater restriction in the number of persons entitled to possess firearms. The section deals inter alia with the question of firearms ou board vessels. The present general provision on this subject is that the owner or master of any vessel may have on board "such arms and ammuni- tion as are reasonably necessary for the protection of such vessel". Sub-section (9) of the proposed new section 4 'will take out of this exemption vessels which regularly include in their ports of call any place on the East Coast of Asia between Vladivostok and Singapore, or any place on any river flowing into the sea on the East Coast of Asia between Vladivostok and Singapore, or any place in Formosa, provided that the usual extreme trading limits of such vessels do not extend beyond the places specified above. Such vessels will not be allowed to carry arms while within the waters of the Colony except under licence from the Inspector General of Police, which is to be the new title of the Captain Superintendent of Police. The vessels in question are those which trade in regions where the risk of piracy exists. This control of the arms on vessels trading within the piracy zones will not be a new thing, as it was applied during the currency of the Piracy Prevention Ordinance, and gave rise to no inconvenience. Junks and other similar vessels have a special provision to themselves. They are allowed to have their arms and ammunition on board if such arms and ammunition are enumerated in the licence or clearance, and are reasonably necessary for the protection of the vessel.

5. Section 6 of this Ordinance amends section 8 of the principal Ordinance by the substitution of the word similar" for the word "Chinese" in the third line. The section in the principal Ordinance deals with the case of arms or ammunition found on board any steam launch or motor boat, or junk or other Chinese vessel ", and it throws a certain onus in that event on the master and other persons on board. The amendment is made because it is not a question of whether the vessel in question is Chinese or non-Chinese but whether it is of a certain type.

6. The title of the office of Captain Superintendent of Police is about to be changed to that of Inspector General of Police. Section 7 of this Ordinance substitutes the new title throughout the principal Ordinance.

1134

A

7. Section 8 of this Ordinance deletes in section 28 of the principal Ordinance the references to the Deputy and Assistant Superintendents of Police, because the matter will be dealt with generally in the new section referred to in the following paragraph.

8. Section 9 of this Ordinance inserts in the principal Ordinance, a new section 33 which provides that the various officers of the police force not below the rank of Assistant Superintendent shall have all the powers con- ferred on the Inspector General of Police by or under the principal Ordinance.

9. The commencement of the Ordinance is postponed until the 1st January, 1930, because that is the day when the new title of the Captain Superintendent of Police will

come into use.

Be it enacted by the Governor of Hong Kong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Crown Lands Resumption Amendment Ordinance, 1929.

2. Section 16 of the Crown Lands Resumption Ordi- nance, 1900, is repealed and the following section is substituted therefor :-

(2) It shall be lawful for the Director of Public Works, after the making of any award whether already made or hereafter to be made under this Ordinance, to cause to be inserted in the Gazette a notification that an award has been made, and such notification shall appoint a government officer to pay the com- pensation awarded, and a place at which, and a time within which, such compensation shall be paid.

(3) Any sum of money awarded as com- pensation shall bear interest at the rate of eight per cent per aunum from the date of the resumption of the land until the expiration of the time appointed as aforesaid. Except as hereinbefore mentioned, no interest shall be payable on any sum awarded as compensation. No interest shall be payable on any costs or remuneration.

No. 5 of 1929.

1135

(4) If no clain be made for the compensa- tion money at the place, and within the time, appointed, the officer appointed as aforesaid shall cause such money to be paid into the Treasury.

(5) The money thus paid into the Treasury or any part of it may, within a period of five years from the expiration of the time referred to in section (2), be claimed by the person entitled thereto and upon such claim being substantiated shall be paid to the person so entitled.

(6) At the expiration of the said period of five years the money or such part of it as remains unpaid shall be transferred to the general revenue of the Colony and shall be dealt with in accordance with the provisions of the Unclaimed Balances Ordinance, 1929.

Objects and Reasons.

Section 16 of the Crown Lands Resumption Ordi- nance, 1900, Ordinance No. 10 of 1900, provides that compensation and costs awarded under the Ordinance "shall bear interest at the rate of eight per cent. per annum from the date of the resumption of the land until payment". It is reasonable that the former owner of land resumed under the Ordinance should receive interest during such period as he is kept out of his land and also out of any compensation in respect of the land.

                       It is, however, not reasonable that this interest should run on indefinitely, and that the inaction, or intentional delay, of the person entitled to the compensation should oblige the Crown to go on paying interest indefinitely. Apparently the effect of the Ordinance is that the claimant can make the interest run on indefinitely by simply not demanding payment. The object of this Ordinance is to fix a time after which the interest will not run. It provides that when an award is made a Gazette notice shall specify a time within which the compensation is to be paid. If the claimant fails to apply for the money within that time, it will be paid into the Treasury and will cease to bear interest.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The object of this Ordinance is to amend section 3 (2) of the Deportation Ürdinance, 1917, so as to make it agree with the form of the Aliens Order, 1920, which is in force in the United Kingdom. In future the sub-section will read :--

3.-(2) The Governor in Council may at any time summarily issue a deportation order against any person who in his opinion is an alien, if he deems it to be conducive to the public good that such an order should be issued.

2. It has been held in various cases that the Secretary of State when making a deportation order under the Aliens Order is not required to justify in a court of law his reasons for making the order, and is not bound to hold any inquiry or even to give the person concerned an opportunity of being heard. In Ex parte Bressler (1924) 88 J.P. 89 (C.A.), however, the Court of Appeal ex- pressed the opinion that it is desirable that the deportation order in such a case should contain a reference to show under what particular statutory provision it was made. This point is dealt with in the new Form No. 7A inserted in the principal Ordinance by section 5 of this Ordinance. Sections 3 and 4 of this Ordinance deal with the same point.

(2) In respect of the wort or wash the duty is to be charged in respect of the quantity of fermentable material used in the preparation thereof, the method of ascertaining the duty so chargeable being as follows. A bulk sample of not less than one catty shall be drawn by a revenue officer from each consigument of fer- mentable material received by the licensee on his licensed premises, and shall be fermented by the Government Analyst or any analyst in the employment of the Government, with fer- ment obtained from the same distillery, for the maximum period allowed for the material and ferment in question by the Distillery Regula- tions in force for the time being, and shall on the completion of the fermentation be distilled by such analyst who shall determine the amount of absolute alcohol produced. From the amount of absolute alcohol so determined the analyst shall calculate the number of gallons of spirit containing twenty-five per cent. of alcohol by weight which one picul of such fermentable material is found capable of pro- ducing. From the amount so determined a deduction shall be made of ten per cent. from the 1st of November to the 14th April, both inclusive, and fifteen per cent. from the 15th April to the 31st October, both inclusive. Duty shall be chargeable on each picul of fermentable material used according to the rates payable on the amount of twenty-five per cent. spirit which such material shall have been so found capable of producing.

Power to

distrain for

arrears of duty on spirits dis; tilled in the Colony.

1141

all such determinations of percentage of alcohol by weight shall be calculated as being deter- mined at the standard temperature of 60° Fahrenheit.

(4) In respect of low wines the duty is to be charged on the quantity of absolute alcohol contained therein as measured by the instru- ments described in sub-section (3) above, less five per cent.

(5) In respect of feints and spirits the duty is to be charged on the quantity of absolute alcohol contained therein after making due allowance for the feints (if any) remaining from a previous distillation and included in the account of feints and spirits last produced.

(6) In calenlating the duty chargeable on spirits an allowance shall be made for any deficiency occasioned by natural waste, subject to the following provisions-

(a) The allowance shall not exceed one

and a half per cent. on the spirits removed from the receiver to the

store.

(b) If the deficiency exceeds three per cent. on the spirits so removed no allowance whatsoever shall be made,

(7) Notwithstanding the provisions of sub- sections (1) to (6), the distiller shall pay to the Superintendent within three days of the close of each weekly period, or within such other period as may be prescribed by the Superintendent, the duty payable on all spirit duly tested and passed for delivery out of the licensed premises by the inspecting revenue officer during the previous week.

Imports and Exports Office.

NOTE. If the permit is not made use of on the day in respect of which it is issued, it must be returned within 24 hours to the office of the Superintendent of Imports and Exports.

Objects and Reasons.

1. This Ordinance makes certain amendments in the Liquors Consolidation Ordinance, 1911, Ordinance No. 9 of 1911, which experience has shown to be advisable.

2. Section 2 of this Ordinance amends section 2 of the principal Ordinance as follows :-

(a) In paragraph (8) "the Government Analyst" is altered to "a Government Analyst" because there are more analysts than one in the service of the Government, one of them being attached to the Imports and Exports Department: see also sections 17 and 18 of this Ordinance.

(b) Paragraph (11) is repealed because eating-bonse licences are now issued by the Head of the Sanitary Department in accordance with Noti- fication No. 600 of the 21st October, 1927: see also sections 7, 24, and 25 of this Ordinance. (c) Paragraph (13) of section 2 of the principal Ordinance provides inter alia that in the case of Chinese spirits 7 catties are to be treated as equivalent to one imperial gallon. This provi- sion is repealed for two reasons. One is that there is no standard catty. The other is that the volume of a catty's weight of spirit increases as the alcoholic strength increases. The result, therefore, of the provision now to be repealed is that the stronger a spirit is the lower is the duty which is paid on it.

* in

(d) The new paragraph (204) defines "Person

the same language as in the Tobacco Ordinance, 1916.

25

() Paragraph (29) is amended so to give au Assistant Superintendent of Imports and Exports the same power and rights as the Superintendent.

3. Section 3 of this Ordinance adds to section 3 (1) of the principal Ordinance the additional offence of possession by an unlicensed person of any fermenting or fermented material without lawful authority or excuse. The other amendment effected by section 3 is in conformity with Government Notification No. 159 of the 18th March, 1927, which, inter alia, substituted the Superintendent of Imports and Exports for the Captain Superintendent of Police as the licensing authority in the case of distillery licences.

4. Section 4 of this Ordinance substitutes the Superin- tendent of Imports and Exports for the Captain Superin- tendent of Police as the licensing authority under section 4 of the principal Ordinance, which provides for the licensing of stills for medical or scientific purposes.

1146

5. Section 5 of this Ordinance amen is section 30 (1) of the principal Ordinance in conformity with Notification No. 159 of the 18th March, 1927, which, inter alio, substituted the Superintendent of Imports and Exports for the Treasurer in the case of dealer's licences. Section 6 of this Ordinance amends section 32 of the principal Ordinance in conformity with the same Notification.

6. Section 7 of this Ordinance repeals sections 34 and 35 of the principal Ordinauce because the licensing of eating houses is now dealt with under Ordinance. No. I of 1903: see Ordinance No. 19 of 1928, section 2 (2). and sections 2 (b), 24, and 25 of this Ordinance. Eating houses are not allowed to sell intoxicating liquors, and they have therefore no place in a liquors Ordinance.

7. Section 8 of this Ordinance amends section 41 (3) of the principal Ordinance so as to make it subject to the new section 62A which is referred to in paragraph H below. Section & also corrects a clerical error in section 41 (2) (b) of the principal Ordinance.

8. Section 9 of this Ordinance provides a form of ship to ship removal permit and shortens the period for shipment of liquors to twenty-four hours before the time mentioned in the ship's clearance. This shortening is considered desirable for the purpose of lessening the opportunities of committing offences against this Ordi- nance. The section also empowers the Superintendent to demand the production of shipping documents.

9. Section 10 of this Ordinance repeals section 50 of the principal Ordinance because it is intendel in future to deal by means of regulations with the subject of "breaking" cases in bond for the purpose of exporting portions of the contents.

10. Section 11 of this Ordinance amends section 54 of the principal Ordinance, with a view to preventing as far as possible the improper use of a permit to move liquor from a ship or to remove liquor for exportation.

11. Section 12 of this Ordinance adds two sections to the principal Ordinance. The new section 62A introduces a new system of charging and collecting the duty on spirits distilled in the Colony. It is based on section 46 of the Spirits Act, 1880, 43 & 44 Vict. c. 24. It is so technical that any description of the system would prac- tically have to be a quotation of the section.

The new section 62B gives power to distrain for arrears of duty on spirits distilled in the Colony. It is practically a copy of section 48 of the Spirits Act, 1380.

12. Section 13 of this Ordinance repeals section 70 of the principal Ordinance because it is undesirable that the power to search goods or baggage should be limited to cases in which there is definite cause to suspect that such goods or baggage contain dutiable liquors or denatured spirits.

13. Section 14 of this Ordinance amends section 71 of the principal Ordinance so as to confer upon revenue officers, authorized by the Superintendent in that behalf, power to search any ship, not being or having the status of a ship of war, and to seize remove and deṭain anything found in any such ship with respect to which the revenue officer has reasonable grounds of suspecting that any offence against Ordinance 9 of 1911 has been committed, This power is similar to the power conferred upon revenge officers, so authorized, by the Dangerous Drugs Ordinance, 1923, Ordinance No. 22 of 1923, section 7, and by the Opium Ordinance, 1923, Ordinance No. 30 of 1923, section 31.

14. Section 15 of this Ordinance repeals section 73 of the principal Ordinance which requires the Superintendent inthecase of dil unsuccessthearch Intesicaling Honors or other articles able to forfeiture under that Ordinance to repack or ealise to be repackell ny bod's unpacked during such search and to be responsible for damages caused in the course of such repacking. There is,, no, such provision in the Tobacco Ordinance, 1916, Ordinance No. 10 of 1916.mait szmoi quites of 209: prior gabun onten won 29-dad quitad "Bodegibnð Ingisning odi

15. Section 16 of this Ordinance repeels section 76 of the principal Ordinance because the payment of informers and the disposal of things forfeited are rather hatters for the Executive,ut vd unnumibit) Iaqinuing alt at olubadae rogom qid- of able to mint adi

16. Sections 17 and 18 of this Ordinance amend sections 79 and 80 of the principal Ordinance for the reason given in paragraph 2 (a) above.

17. Section 19.6 this Ordinance repeals section 81 of the principal Orllance, which empowers the Governor to stop proceedings and to order restitution of articles for- feited, as being unusual and unnecessary. There is no such provision in the Tobacco Ordinance, 1916, Ordinance No. 10 of 1916.

18. The proposed new section 87 of the principal Ordinance, to be enacted by section 20 of this Ordinance, makes it necessary for every person to give correct details of any particulars, returns, etc. which he supplies under the Ordinance, at his peril of being guilty of an offence unless he can prove both absence of knowledge of the incorrectness and absence of negligence conducing to it. The present section 87 lays on the prosecution the onus of proving guilty knowledge.

19. Section 21 of this Ordinance inserts a new section, based on section 48 of the Tobacco Ordinance, 1916, Ördi- nance No. 10 of 1916, which gives power to the Superin- tendent, and to certain specially authorised revenue officers, This new power to obtain information in certain cases. section, which will be section 87A, will be more restricted than the section in the Tobacco Ordinance in two respects. In the first place, the power will be confined to the Super- intendent and to particular revenue officers authorised in writing by the Superintendent, whereas the section in the Tobacco Ordinance gives the power to all revenue officers. In the second place, a proviso makes it clear that the section will not confer any power of questioning any person who has been charged under the Ordinance, or on whose case the Superintendent has decided to prosecute under the Ordinance.

20. Section 1 of this Ordinance also inserts a new section based on sections 17 and 18 of the Opium Ordi- nance, 1923, Ordinance No. 30 of 1923, to prevent the improper possession of labels, wrappers or marks issued by the Superintendent of Imports and Exports, and to prevent the possession of fraudulent imitations of such labels, wrappers or marks.

21. Section 22 of this Ordinance effects amendments in section 89 of Ordinance 9 of 1911, so as to make it similar to section 59 of the Tobacco Ordinance, 1916, but with the additional option given to the magistrate similar to that which is given to him by section 39 (3) of the Opium Ordinance, 1923, Ordinance Nc. 30 of 1923, of imposing, if he thinks fit, a fine not exceeding two thousand dollars in lieu of a fine not exceeding ten times the duty. The reason for this latter addition is that there are many serious offences, such as keeping an illicit still, or manu- facturing bogus brandy from smuggled spirits of wine, in which very little liquor may be seized.

1148

22. Section 23 of this Ordinance enables the Governor in Council to make regulations in regard to the manufac- ture possession and sale of denatured spirits, in addition to the other matters enumerated in section 95 of the principal Ordinance.

23. Sections 24 and 25 of this Ordinance remove all references to eating house licences from the Schedules to the principal Ordinance. Eating houses now come under Ordinance No. 1 of 1903.

24. Section 26 of this Ordinance amends the Third Schedule to the principal Ordinance by inserting therein the form of ship to ship removal permit already referred to in paragraph 10 above.

Objects and Reasons

1. This Ordinance Repeals the Saint John's Cathedral Church Ordinance, 1899, and The Church Property Vesting Ordinance 1904, and constitutes one central incorporated authority to hold and administer all the property of the Church of England in Hong Kong. This is explained in the preambles which also give a short account of the origin of the Cathedral in Hongkong and of Saint Andrew's Church in Kowloon.

2. Section 1 gives the short title.

3. Section 2 is the interpretation clause.

4. Section 3 provides for the constitution of a body of Trustees, and for their qualifications.

5. Section 4 provides for the notification of changes in the constitution of that body.

6. Section 5 incorporates the Trustees and defines their powers.

7. Section 6 vests sundry properties in the Trustees.

8. Section 7 authorises the delegation of the care and maintenance of Church property to the Church Councils established under the provisions of the Ordinance.

9. Section 8 makes provision for patronage boards. 10. Section 9 provides for the making of regula- tions.

11. Section 10 establishes Church Councils for the existing churches to co-operate with the incumbents in church work.

12. Section 11 makes provision for the establish- ment of Councils for future Churches.

13. Section 12 provides for the right of visitation. of the Bishop and Archdeacon.

14. Section 13 recognises the Bishop's right to use the Cathedral.

15. Section 14 provides for the user of the Cathedral by the troops of the Garrison.

16. Section 15 makes provision for the holding of services at the prisons and Government hospitals.

17. Section 16 deals with the erection, alteration and removal of memorials in the churches.

18. Section 17 preserves the two Chater Endow- ment Funds as they were created by their donor on the express condition that they should be perpetually known by their respective names.

19. Section 18 contains the usual saving of the rights of the Crown.

20. Section 19 effects the necessary repeals. The attached table of correspondence shows where the sections of the repealed Ordinances are repeated, with or without modification, in the sections of the new Ordinance. It will be noticed that certain sections of Ordinance No. 5 of 1899 have been omitted. Thus sections 9 and 10 of that Ordinance are not con- sidered necessary in view of the constitution and powers of the new bodies established by the new Ordinance. The same remark applies to section 14 which is however to some extent re-enacted in a proviso to regulation 8 in the Second Schedule. Sections 15 and 16 of the Ordinance of 1899 related to pew rents. These have been already abolished in Saint Andrew's Church and it is proposed to abolish them in the Cathedral also. Section 17 relating to brawling is considered sufficiently covered by section 32 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1865 and section 18 relating to burials by sections 90, 91 and 92 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1903.

1175

21. Section 20 fixes the 18th January, 1930 for the commencement of the Ordinance so as to permit the existing Church Body and Vestry to function until immediately before the date of the regular annual meetings.

22. The first Schedule contains a form of Letter of Delegation referred to in section 7 of the Ordinance.

23. The second Schedule contains a set of regula- tions for the direction of Church Councils which are founded on regulations in force in England and adapted to local conditions.

A BILL

Short title.

Insertion of new section 4A in Ordinance No. 25 of 1927.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Printers and

Publishers Ordinance, 1927.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hong Kong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Printers and Publishers Amendment Ordinance, 1929.

2. The Printers and Publishers Ordinance, 1927, is amended by the insertion of the following section immediately after section 4 :--

Security.

4A.-(1) Subject to the provisions of sub-section (7), no newspaper shall be registered until a sum of three thousand dollars has been deposited with the Reg- istrar by or on behalf of the person seeking registration. Any such deposit shall bear interest at the rate of four per cent per annum while under the control of the Registrar.

(2) The money thus deposited shall be available to pay any fine which may be imposed upon the proprietor, printer, pub- lisher, or editor of the newspaper in question, either under this Ordinance or in respect of any matter appearing in the said newspaper, and shall also be available to pay any damages that may be awarded in any action for libel in respect of any matter appearing in the said newspaper and the costs of any such action.

(3) The Registrar may direct that the whole of such money or such part as may be necessary shall be paid out in respect of such fine, damages or costs.

(4) When any money has been paid out under sub-section (3) the Registrar may in his discretion suspend the registration of the newspaper concerned until a deposit has been made with him, in respect of the newspaper concerned, equal to the amount paid out under his direction, and during the period of such suspension the newspaper shall be deemed to be not registered, and for the purposes of sub-section (8) of section 4 of this Ordinance the require- ments of the said section 4 shall be deemed not to have been complied with in the case of such newspaper.

(5) The proprietor of any newspaper may at any time give notice to the Registrar that he desires the registration of the news- paper to cease and the Registrar may on the receipt of such notice cancel the

1183

registration and the newspaper shall cease to be registered from the date of such cancellation.

(6) After the expiration of six months from any such cancellation of registration, or, in his discretion, before the expiration of that period, the Registrar may direct that the sum deposited in respect of such so much of such sum as newspaper, or remains deposited, shall be repaid to the person entitled to receive the same.

(7) It shall be lawful for the Registrar to accept, in lieu of the deposit of three thousand dollars, a bond in the said amount, by the person seeking the registration together with one or two sufficient sureties approved by the Registrar, conditioned for the payment of any fine which may be im- posed upon the proprietor, printer, publisher or editor of the newspaper in question, either under this Ordinance or in respect of any matter appearing in the said news- paper, and also for the payment of any damages that may be awarded in any action for libel in respect of any matter appearing in the said newspaper and the costs of any such action.

3. The proprietor of every newspaper already re- Temporary gistered at the commencement of this Ordinance shall, provision. within three months of such commencement, in respect of such newspaper either make the deposit referred to in sub-section (1) of section 4A of the Printers and Publishers Ordinance, 1927, as enacted by section 2 of this Ordinance, or, in the discretion of the Registrar, enter into the bond referred to in Sub-section (7) of the said section 4A, and thereupon the provisions of the said section 4A shall apply to such deposit or bond as if it had been made or entered into before the re- gistration of such newspaper.

In the event of non- compliance with the provisions of this section the news- paper in question shall be deemed to be not registered. and for the purposes of sub-section (8) of section 4 of this Ordinance the requirements of the said section 4 shall be deemed not to have been complied with in the case of such newspaper.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 13 of the Printers and Publishers Ordin- ance, 1886, Ordinance No. 4 of 1886, required that the printer or publisher of every newspaper should enter into a bond in the sum of twelve hundred dollars, conditioned for the payment of any fine or penalty imposed on any conviction for libel, and further con- ditioned for the payment of any damages and costs in any action for libel published in the newspaper. This provision was not reproduced in the Printers and Publishers Ordinance, 1927, Ordinance No. 25 of 1927, because no actual recourse to the provisions of the section had been made for very many years, and it was thought that the section was unnecessary. Re- cently, however, a number of irresponsible newspapers with libellous and blackmailing tendencies have appeared, disappearing again upon the sign of any trouble. Prosecutions and actions for libel are no real remedy in such a case because the newspaper ceases and the promoters disappear when any action is

1184

threatened. It is thought that the requirement of security from every newspaper will check the rise of such undesirable newspapers, while placing no burden on reputable journalism.

2. The present Ordinance therefore requires a security from every newspaper, existing or future. The cash security to be required is three thousand dollars, but the Registrar of Newspapers is given discretion to accept instead of the cash deposit a bond with one or two sureties. The deposit, or the money secured by the bond, will be available for the payment of the following:-

(a) any fine imposed on the proprietor, printer, publisher or editor of the newspaper, either under the Printers and Publishers Ordin- ance or in respect of any matter appearing in the newspaper; and

(b) any damages awarded in any action for libel published in the newspaper, and the costs of any such action.

1209

Objects and Reasons.

1. This Ordinance Repeals the Saint John's Cathedral Church Ordinance, 1899, and The Church. Property Vesting Ordinance 1904, and constitutes one central incorporated authority to hold and administer all the property of the Church of England in Hong Kong. This is explained in the preambles which also give a short account of the origin of the Cathedral in Hongkong and of Saint Andrew's Church in Kowloon.

2. Section 1 gives the short title.

3. Section 2 is the interpretation clause.

4. Section 3 provides for the constitution of a body of Trustees, and for their qualifications.

5. Section 4 provides for the notification of changes in the constitution of that body.

6. Section 5 incorporates the Trustees and defines their powers.

7. Section 6 vests sundry properties in the Trustees.

8. Section 7 authorises the delegation of the care and maintenance of Church property to the Church Councils established under the provisions of the Ordinance.

9. Section 8 makes provision for patronage boards. 10. Section 9 provides for the making of regula- tions.

11. Section 10 establishes Church Councils for the existing churches to co-operate with the incumbents in church work.

12. Section 11 makes provision for the establish- ment of Councils for future Churches.

13. Section 12 provides for the right of visitation. of the Bishop and Archdeacon.

14. Section 13 recognises the Bishop's right to use the Cathedral.

15. Section 14 provides for the user of the Cathedral by the troops of the Garrison.

16. Section 15 makes provision for the holding of services at the prisons and Government hospitals.

17. Section 16 deals with the erection, alteration and removal of memorials in the churches.

18. Section 17 preserves the two Chater Endow- ment Funds as they were created by their donor on the express condition that they should be perpetually known by their respective names.

19. Section 18 contains the usual saving of the rights of the Crown.

20. Section 19 effects the necessary repeals. The attached table of correspondence shows where the sections of the repealed Ordinances are repeated, with or without modification, in the sections of the new Ordinance. It will be noticed that certain sections of Ordinance No. 5 of 1899 have been omitted. Thus sections 9 and 10 of that Ordinance are not con- sidered necessary in view of the constitution and powers of the new bodies established by the new Ordinance. The same remark applies to section 14 which is however to some extent re-enacted in a proviso to regulation 8 in the Second Schedule. Sections 15 and 16 of the Ordinance of 1899 related to pew rents. These have been already abolished in Saint Andrew's Church and it is proposed to abolish them in the Cathedral also. Section 17 relating to brawling is considered sufficiently covered by section 32 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1865 and section 18 relating to burials by sections 90, 91 and 92 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1903.

1210

21. Section 20 fixes the 18th January, 1930 for the commencement of the Ordinance so as to permit the existing Church Body and Vestry to function until immediately before the date of the regular annual meetings.

22. The first Schedule contains a form of Letter of Delegation referred to in section 7 of the Ordinance.

23. The second Schedule contains a set of regula- tions for the direction of Church Councils which are founded on regulations in force in England and adapted to local conditions.

A BILL

Short title.

Insertion of new section 4A in Ordinance No. 25 of 1927.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Printers and

Publishers Ordinance, 1927.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hong Kong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Printers and Publishers Amendment Ordinance, 1929.

2. The Printers and Publishers Ordinance, 1927, is amended by the insertion of the following section immediately after section 4-

Security.

4A. (1) Subject to the provisions of sub-section (7), no newspaper shall be registered until a sum of three thousand dollars has been deposited with the Reg- istrar by or on behalf of the person seeking registration. Any such deposit shall bear interest at the rate of four per cent per annum while under the control of the Registrar.

(2) The money thus deposited shall be available to pay any fine which may be imposed upon the proprietor, printer, pub- lisher, or editor of the newspaper in question, either under this Ordinance or in respect of any matter appearing in the said newspaper, and shall also be available to pay any damages that may be awarded in any action for libel in respect of any matter appearing in the said newspaper and the costs of any such action.

(3) The Registrar may direct that the whole of such money or such part as may be necessary shall be paid out in respect of such fine, damages or costs.

(4) When any money has been paid out under sub-section (3) the Registrar may in his discretion suspend the registration of the newspaper concerned until a deposit has been made with him, in respect of the newspaper concerned, equal to the amount paid out under his direction, and during the period of such suspension the newspaper shall be deemed to be not registered, and for the purposes of sub-section (8) of section 4 of this Ordinance the require- ments of the said section 4 shall be deemed not to have been complied with in the case of such newspaper.

(5) The proprietor of any newspaper may at any time give notice to the Registrar that he desires the registration of the news- paper to cease and the Registrar may on the receipt of such notice cancel the

1217

registration and the newspaper shall cease to be registered from the date of such cancellation.

(6) After the expiration of six months from any such cancellation of registration, or, in his discretion, before the expiration of that period, the Registrar may direct that the sum deposited in respect of such newspaper, or so much of such sum as remains deposited, shall be repaid to the person entitled to receive the same.

(7) It shall be lawful for the Registrar to accept, in lieu of the deposit of three thousand dollars, a bond in the said amount, by the person seeking the registration together with one or two sufficient sureties approved by the Registrar, conditioned for the payment of any fine which may be im- posed upon the proprietor, printer, publisher or editor of the newspaper in question, either under this Ordinance or in respect of any matter appearing in the said news- paper, and also for the payment of any damages that may be awarded in any action. for libel in respect of any matter appearing in the said newspaper and the costs of any such action.

3. The proprietor of every newspaper already re- Temporary gistered at the commencement of this Ordinance shall, provision. within three months of such commencement, in respect of such newspaper either make the deposit referred to in sub-section (1) of section 4A of the Printers and Publishers Ordinance, 1927, as enacted by section 2 of this Ordinance, or, in the discretion of the Registrar, enter into the bond referred to in Sub-section (7) of the said section 4A, and thereupon the provisions of the said section 4A shall apply to such deposit or bond as if it had been made or entered into before the re- gistration of such newspaper. In the event of non- compliance with the provisions of this section the news- paper in question shall be deemed to be not registered. and for the purposes of sub-section (8) of section 4 of this Ordinance the requirements of the said section 4 shall be deemed not to have been complied with in the case of such newspaper.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 13 of the Printers and Publishers Ordin- ance, 1886, Ordinance No. 4 of 1886, required that the printer or publisher of every newspaper should enter into a bond in the sum of twelve hundred dollars, conditioned for the payment of any fine or penalty imposed on any conviction for libel, and further con- ditioned for the payment of any damages and costs in any action for libel published in the newspaper. This provision was not reproduced in the Printers and Publishers Ordinance, 1927, Ordinance No. 25 of 1927, because no actual recourse to the provisions of the section had been made for very many years, and it was thought that the section was unnecessary. Re- cently, however, a number of irresponsible newspapers with libellous and blackmailing tendencies have appeared, disappearing again upon the sign of any trouble. Prosecutions and actions for libel are no real remedy in such a case because the newspaper ceases and the promoters disappear when any action is

1218

threatened. It is thought that the requirement of security from every newspaper will check the rise of such undesirable newspapers, while placing no burden. on reputable journalism.

2. The present Ordinance therefore requires a security from every newspaper, existing or future. The cash security to be required is three thousand dollars, but the Registrar of Newspapers is given discretion to accept instead of the cash deposit a bond with one or two sureties. The deposit, or the money secured by the bond, will be available for the payment of the following:-

(a) any fine imposed on the proprietor, printer, publisher or editor of the newspaper, either under the Printers and Publishers Ordin- ance or in respect of any matter appearing in the newspaper; and

(b) any damages awarded in any action for libel published in the newspaper, and the costs of any such action.

1236

Objects and Reasons.

1. This Ordinance Repeals the Saint John's Cathedral Church Ordinance, 1899, and The Church Property Vesting Ordinance 1904, and constitutes one central incorporated authority to hold and administer all the property of the Church of England in Hong Kong. This is explained in the preambles which also give a short account of the origin of the Cathedral in Hongkong and of Saint Andrew's Church in Kowloon.

2. Section 1 gives the short title.

3. Section 2 is the interpretation clause.

4. Section 3 provides for the constitution of a body of Trustees, and for their qualifications.

5. Section 4 provides for the notification of changes in the constitution of that body.

6. Section 5 incorporates the Trustees and defines their powers.

7. Section 6 vests sundry properties in the Trustees.

8. Section 7 authorises the delegation of the care and maintenance of Church property to the Church Councils established under the provisions of the Ordinance.

9. Section 8 makes provision for patronage boards. 10. Section 9 provides for the making of regula- tions.

11. Section 10 establishes Church Councils for the existing churches to co-operate with the incumbents in church work.

12. Section 11 makes provision for the establish- ment of Councils for future Churches.

13. Section 12 provides for the right of visitation of the Bishop and Archdeacon.

14. Section 13 recognises the Bishop's right to use the Cathedral.

15. Section 14 provides for the user of the Cathedral by the troops of the Garrison.

16. Section 15 makes provision for the holding of services at the prisons and Government hospitals.

17. Section 16 deals with the erection, alteration and removal of memorials in the churches.

18. Section 17 preserves the two Chater Endow- ment Funds as they were created by their donor on the express condition that they should be perpetually known by their respective names.

19. Section 18 contains the usual saving of the rights of the Crown.

20. Section 19 effects the necessary repeals. The attached table of correspondence shows where the sections of the repealed Ordinances are repeated, with or without modification, in the sections of the new Ordinance. It will be noticed that certain sections of Ordinance No. 5 of 1899 have been omitted. Thus sections 9 and 10 of that Ordinance are not con- sidered necessary in view of the constitution and powers of the new bodies established by the new Ordinance. The same remark applies to section 14 which is however to some extent re-enacted in a proviso to regulation 8 in the Second Schedule. Sections 15 and 16 of the Ordinance of 1899 related to pew rents. These have been already abolished in Saint Andrew's Church and it is proposed to abolish them in the Cathedral also. Section 17 relating to brawling is considered sufficiently covered by section 32 of Ordinance No. 2 of 1865 and section 18 relating to burials by sections 90, 91 and 92 of Ordinance No. 1 of 1903.

1237

21. Section 20 fixes the 18th January, 1930 for the commencement of the Ordinance so as to permit the existing Church Body and Vestry to function until immediately before the date of the regular annual meetings.

22. The first Schedule contains a form of Letter of Delegation referred to in section 7 of the Ordinance.

23. The second Schedule contains a set of regula- tions for the direction of Church Councils which are founded on regulations in force in England and adapted to local conditions.

(Assistant) Superintendent of Imports and Exports.

Objects and Reasons.

1. This bill is intended to fill up certain minor lacunae which have been noticed in the statutory provisions relat- ing to the control of opium.

2. Sections 2 and 3 of this Ordinance introduce new definitions of the terms exportation and importation which are based on those in the Dangerous Drugs Ordinance, 1923, as enacted by the Dangerous Drugs Amendment Ordinance, 1928. The new points are the following :-

(a) Aireraft are specifically referred to.

(b) Conveyance by mail is expressly mentioned. (e) The word "despatch" is introduced in order to ineet the possible though unlikely case of con- traband being thrown across the land frontier.

3. It has been suggested that althongh dealing in raw opium is illegal generally yet the prohibitions of section 4 of the Opium Ordinance, 1923, as enacted by section 2 of the Opium Amendment Ordinance, 1924, would not apply if it could be shown that there was no intention that the opium in question should ever be imported into the Colony. Section 4 of this Ordinance introduces words which are intended to meet that possible defence.

4. Section 17 of the Opium Ordinance, 1923, makes illegal the possession of any Government label or wrapper which has been or has become detached from the opium receptacle to which it was attached when issued by the Superintendent. In a prosecution under this section it would usually be impossible to prove that the detached label or wrapper had ever been attached to a receptacle issued by the Superintendent, except by relying on a general statement that in practice no label or wrapper is issued except attached to a receptacle. Section 5 of this Ordinance repeals section 17 of the principal Ordinance and substitutes a new section. Sub-section (1) of the new section meets the point above referred to by making illegal the possession of any label or wrapper of a kind used by the Superintendent unless such label or wrapper is attached to some receptacle which was issued by the Superintendent.

5. Sub-section (2) of the new section 17 deals with an- other point. It would be possible to remove the label from a Government opium receptacle without damaging the label and to use it again on another receiptacle containing nou-Government opium. It is true that the possession of this non-Government opium would be an offence in itself,

1253

but the improper use of a Government label is a distinct aggravation of that offence, and should be punishable in itself. Accordingly, the sub-section in question makes illegal the possession of any label or wrapper of a kind used by the Superintendent unless such label or wrapper is either attached to a receptacle issued by the Superin- tendent and containing the full quantity of Government opium as issued, or else has been broken in such a way as to make it impracticable to use the label or wrapper again.

6. Section 36 of the Opium Ordinance, 1923, provides that every person who is proved to have had in his posses- sion any thing containing opium, or the documents of title to any thing containing opium shall, until the contrary is proved, he presumed to have been in possession of the opium. Section 6 of this Ordinance repeals that section and substitutes a new one which contains the following additional points which have been suggested by the cor- responding section in the Dangerous Drugs Ordinance :-

(a) The presumption is made to arise also upon proof of the possession of the keys of any box or drawer containing opium.

(b) The term documents of title is made to include a

baggage receipt.

(e) The presumption of knowledge is made to extend to knowledge of the kind of opium contained in the box or other receptacle. This is inserted because it is necessary in the charge to refer to some particular kind of opium, e.g., prepared opium or raw opium.

() It is expressly provided in sub-section (3) that the presumptions of the section will not be rebutted by mere proof that the accused never had physical possession of the opium in question.

7. Section 37 of the principal Ordinance provides that a certificate signed by the Superintendent as to the character or quantity of any opium shall be conclusive evidence of the facts stated therein. This was intended to obviate the necessity of calling the analyst on every occasion. The section is, however, defective, because it makes no provi- sion for connecting any particular certificate with any particular lot of opium. Section 7 of this Ordinance re- peals the above section and substitutes a new section which, with the new form of certificate added to the principal Ordinance by section 8 of this Ordinance, will enable the certificate to be connected with the opium to which it relates. by means of the officer who receives the opium from the analyst and produces it in court.
