EXAMINATIONS OF MASTERS & MATES

NOTICE TO CANDIDATES

CERTIFICATES OF COMPETENCY AS MASTER AND FIRST MATE (FOREIGN GOING)

The Board of Trade have received representations from various quarters that, owing to the difficulty of obtaining employment under existing conditions, Merchant Service officers who have obtained Certificates of Competency as Second Mate and First Mate are unable to complete the sea time necessary to enable them to qualify for candidature as First Mate and Master (foreign-going) respectively.

The Board have decided that in present circumstances a candidate may be permitted to sit for the written portion of his First Mate's or Master's Certificate on the completion of 12 months sea service (foreign-going) instead of the 18 months sea service (foreign-going) required under the examination. regulations as they now stand. A candidate who sits for the written part of his examination and passes will be allowed to take the oral part of the examination after he has completed the full period of 18 months sea service. Unless an officer passes the oral examination within six months of first attempting it (or, exceptionally, twelve months-see paragraph 18 of Regulations relating to the Examination of Masters and Mates), his previous pass in the written examina- tion will be cancelled and it will be necessary for him to take the whole examination again.

This concession is temporary and is intended to assist officers to use to advantage time during which they may be unemployed. It will operate until 31st December, 1934, and will then be reviewed in all its bearings.

The other varieties of sea-service qualifying for candida- ture for the certificates mentioned above will be dealt with similarly, ie, two-thirds of the prescribed period of sea- service will be required to qualify a candidate to sit for the written examination.

Some of such registered shareholders have not paid the call and the Company has notified those of such registered holders who are also the registered holders of fully paid shares that,

unless payment of such call together with in-

terest thereon is paid to the Company on or before the 28th day of March, 1934, the Diree- tors will, in addition to their other remedies, take steps to obtain payment by selling such fully paid shares in accordance with the powers conferred on the Company by its Articles.

It is realised that in some cases both partly paid and fully paid shares standing on the register in the name of the same shareholder have both been sold to the same persou but that such person has taken no steps to have his name put on the register.

While the Company can only deal with such shares in accordance with the share register it considers it advisable, though under no legal obligation to do so, to warn unregistered pur- chas rs of such partly paid and fully paid shares of the intention of the Company in the event of any call not being paid on or before the 28th day of March, 1934, to enfore its powers of sale as regards such fully paid shares

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 Merchandise Marks Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Paragraph (b) of section 3 (3) of the Merchandise. Marks Ordinance, 1890, is repealed and the following para- graph is substituted therefor :-

(b) on summary conviction, to imprisonment for any term not exceeding six months, or to a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars; and,

5. The Merchandise Marks Ordinance, 1890, is amended by the addition of the following section at the end thereof :-

Regulations

as to

Official

19. (1) The Governor in Council may make regulations providing that in cases appearing to affect the general interests prosecutions. of the Colony, or of a section of the community, or of a trade, the prosecution of offences under this Ordinance shall be undertaken by the Crown or by any public officer, and pre- scribing the conditions on which such prosecutions are to be 'undertaken.

54 & 55 Vict.

c. 15, s. 2.

(2) All regulations made under this section shall be laid on the table of the Legislative Council at the first meeting thereof held after publication in the Gazette of the making of

195

such regulations, and if a resolution is passed at the first meet- ing of the Legislative Council held after such regulations have been laid on the table of the said Council resolving that any such regulation shall be rescinded or amended in any manner whatsoever, the said regulation shall, without prejudice to anything done thereunder, be deemed to be rescinded, or amended, as the case may be, as from the date of publication in the Gazette of the passing of such resolution.

(3) Nothing in this section shall affect the power of any person or authority to undertake prosecutions otherwise than under the said regulations.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 3 (3) (b) of the principal Ordinance provided that offenders should be liable on summary conviction to imprisonment for any term not exceeding four months, or to a fine not exceeding $100, and in the case of a second or sub- sequent conviction to imprisonment for any term not exceeding six months, or to a fine not exceeding $250.

2. The paragraph was founded in section 2 (3) (ii) of the Merchandise Marks Act, 1887, where the fines on summary conviction were £20 and £50 respectively.

3. The Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce has asked that the maximum fine on summary conviction should be increased.

4. Section 2 of this Ordinance substitutes a paragraph providing that the maximum penalty on summary conviction. shall be six months imprisonment or a fine of one thousand dollars. Under section 3 (3) (a) of the principal Ordinance conviction before the Supreme Court renders the offender liable to a term not exceeding two years and to a fine not exceeding two thousand dollars.

5. Section 3 of this Ordinance adds a paragraph to section 5 (1) of the principal Ordinance providing that a person shall be deemed to apply a trade mark or trade description to goods if he makes in any affidavit, declaration or writing a statement to the effect that a trade mark or trade description is applicable to the goods. This provision is inserted because cases some- times arise, which do not fall within the provisions of the Ferjury Ordinance, No. 21 of 1922, but in which false trade descriptions are made with reference to goods with a view to cbtaining Empire preference, Customs or other facilities. In England under section 1 of the Merchandise Marks Act, 1891, the customs entry relating to imported goods is, for the purposes of the Act of 1887, on which the principal Ordinance is founded, to be deemed to be a trade description applied to the goods. In this Colony the false trade descriptions are more often applied in the case of goods exported.

6. Section 11 (2) of the principal Ordinance which is founded on section 12 (2) of the Merchandise Marks Act, 1887, provides for informations or complaints laid or made for the

196

purpose of enforcing forfeiture in cases where the owner of goods or things, which would be liable to forfeiture on his conviction, is unknown or cannot be found.

7. Cases arise in which the owner is known, but is outside the jurisdiction of the courts. In order to remove doubts and to implement an undertaking given to the Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce in 1917 that the point would be dealt with at the next amendment of the Ordinance, section 4 of this Ordinance adds the words "in the Colony" after the words "cannot be found".

8. Sub-sections (1) and (3) of section 5 of this Ordinance are based on sub-sections (1) and (3) of section 2 of the Mei- chandise Marks Act, 1891. The reference to the Legislature in sub-section 2 (1) of the Act is omitted as unnecessary and because it might be thought to conflict, to some extent, with Regulation 5 of the Regulations published in Statutory Rules and Orders, 1929, p. 1436, which it is intended to follow in the local regulations. Section 5 (2) of this Ordinance is in the usual form (compare section 2 (3) of Ordinance No. 35 of 1923).

Objects and Reasons.

1. This Ordinance repeals the Travellers Restriction Ordinance, 1915, and the Registration of Persons Ordinance, 1916, and re-enacts with some changes those of their provisions which it is considered desirable to retain.

2. Sections 2 and 3 and the Schedule are restricted to aliens other than those of Chinese race, they are in part new but are based mainly on sections 7 and 8 of Ordinance No. 19 of 1915, on sections 2 and 3 and the First and Second Schedules of Ordinance No. 6 of 1916, and the Registration of Persons Bill, 1922.

3. The registration of Persons Ordinance, 1916, was not limited to aliens, and persons of Chinese race were excluded though the Governor in Council was given power in section 5 to include them. It is considered impracticable to require the registration of ali or even a substantial portion of the Chinese in the Colony.

201

4. Section 4, which is not limited to aliens but which does not apply to persons of Chinese race, re-enacts with very slight modification section 14 of Ordinance No. 19 of 1915. The section is made to apply to all hotel guests and not merely those over fourteen years of age.

5. Section 5 which requires passenger lists, in the case of non-Chinese enacts the existing practice and is derived from section 9 of Ordinance No. 19 of 1915.

6. Section 6 is derived in part from section 5 (a) of Ordinance No. 6 of 1916, and section 7 from section 16 of Ordinance No. 19 of 1915, but the penalties have been reduced.

7. The Schedule is more detailed than the Schedule to Ordinance No. 6 of 1916.

GREEN ISLAND CEMENT COMPANY, LIMITED.

RE CALL.

T HE Company recently made a call of $3.75 per share in respect of the partly paid shares in the capital of the Company which was payable by the registered holders on or before the 15th December, 1933.

Some of such registered shareholders have not paid the call and tl e Company has notified those of such registered holders who are also the registered holders of fully paid shares that, unless payment of such call together with in- terest thereon is paid to the Company on or before the 28th day of March, 1934, the Direc- tors will, in addition to their other remedies, take steps to obtain payment by selling such fully paid shares in accordance with the powers conferred on the Company by its Articles.

It is realised that in some cases both partly paid and fully paid shares standing on the register in the name of the same shareholder have both been sold to the same persou but that such person has taken no steps to have his name put on the register.

While the Company can only deal with such shares in accordance with the share register it considers it advisable, though under no legal obligation to do so, to warn unregistered pur- chas rs of such partly paid and fully paid shares of the intention of the Company in the event of any call not being paid on or before the 28th day of March, 1934, to enfore its powers of sale as regards such fully paid shares

Substitution for Ordin- ance No. 13 of 1886, s. 4.

Proceedings arising from

of witnesses.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Commissioners Powers Ordinance,

1886.

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 Commissioners Powers Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. The Commissioners Powers Ordinance, 1886, is amended by the repeal of section 4 and by the substitution of the following section.

4.-(1) No action of any description other than criminal examination proceedings shall be maintained against any person examined at any inquiry authorised by this Ordinance, in respect of any statement made or document produced by him, merely by reason of his making the statement or producing the document at the inquiry.

New section 6 to Ordinance

No. 13 of 1886.

Appearance

of counsel, etc.

(2) No prosecution in respect of any statement made or document produced at any such inquiry shall be commenced without the sanction of the Attorney General.

3. The Commissioners Powers Ordinance, 1886, is amended by the insertion of the following section immediately after section 5.-

6. Any person whose conduct is the subject of inquiry under this Ordinance, or who is in any way implicated or concerned in the matter under inquiry shall be entitled to he represented by counsel or a solicitor at the whole of the inquiry, and any other person who may consider it desirable that he should be so represented may, by leave of the commissioners, be represented in the manner aforesaid.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 2 of this Ordinance substitutes for section 4 of the principal Ordinance a new section the object of which is to encourage witnesses to make a full disclosure, and which in this respect follows in principle the old section which it

221

2. Old section 4 of the principal Ordinance was based on section 7 of the Truck Commission Act, 1870 (33 and 34 Vict. c. 105) and empowered commissioners to indemnify a witness from all proceedings "in respect of any matter touching which he has been examined". No such indemnity. can now be given under the new section, but a witness is assured of freedom from civil action arising out of his examination by sub-section (1) and is protected from indis- criminate criminal proceedings by sub-section (2) which requires the consent of the Attorney General to a prosecution.

3. Section 3 of this Ordinance inserts a new section 6 in the principal Ordinance which entitles any person whose conduct is the subject of inquiry, or who is concerned in the matter under inquiry, to be represented by counsel or a solicitor. A similar amendment appears in the Straits Settle- ments Inquiry Commissions (Amendment) Ordinance, No. 13 of 1933.

4. Both the foregoing amendments are made in con- sequence of suggestions made by the Secretary of State in his despatches of 12th July and 9th August, 1932, and the form of the Ordinance has been approved by the Secretary of State in his despatch of the 15th November, 1933.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Merchandise Marks Ordinance,

1890.

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 Merchandise Marks Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Paragraph (b) of section 3 (3) of the Merchandise Marks Ordinance, 1890, is repealed and the following para- graph is substituted therefor :-

(b) on summary conviction, to imprisonment for any term not exceeding six months, or to a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars; and,

3. Section 5 (1) of the Merchandise Marks Ordinance, 1890, is amended by the insertion of the following paragraph after paragraph (c) thereof :-

(cc) makes in any affidavit, declaration or writing any statement to the effect that a trade mark or trade description is applicable to the goods; or

4. Section 11 (2) of the Merchandise Marks Ordinance, 1890, is amended by the insertion of the words "in the Colony" after the word "found" in the fourth line thereof.

New section 19 added to

Ordinance No. 4 of 1890.

5. The Merchandise Marks Ordinance, 1890, is amended by the addition of the following section at the end thereof :-

Regulations

as to Official

prosecutions.

54 & 55 Vict.

c. 15, s. 2.

19.-(1) The Governor in Council may make regulations providing that in cases appearing to affect the general interests of the Colony, or of a section of the community, or of a trade, the prosecution of offences under this Ordinance shall be undertaken by the Crown or by any public officer, and pre- scribing the conditions on which such prosecutions are to be undertaken.

(2) All regulations made under this section shall be laid on the table of the Legislative Council at the first meeting thereof held after publication in the Gazette of the making of

223

such regulations, and if a resolution is passed at the first meet- ing of the Legislative Council held after such regulations have been laid on the table of the said Council resolving that any such regulation shall be rescinded or amended in any manner whatsoever, the said regulation shall, without prejudice to anything done thereunder, be deemed to be rescinded, or amended, as the case may be, as from the date of publication in the Gazette of the passing of such resolution.

(3) Nothing in this section shall affect the power of any person or authority to undertake prosecutions otherwise than under the said regulations.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 3 (3) (b) of the principal Ordinance provided that offenders should be liable on summary conviction to imprisonment for any term not exceeding four months, or to a fine not exceeding $100, and in the case of a second or sub- sequent conviction to imprisonment for any term not exceeding six months, or to a fine not exceeding $250.

2. The paragraph was founded in section 2 (3) (ii) of the Merchandise Marks Act, 1887, where the fines on summary conviction were £20 and £50 respectively.

3. The Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce has asked that the maximum fine on summary conviction should be increased.

4. Section 2 of this Ordinance substitutes a paragraph providing that the maximum penalty on summary conviction shall be six months imprisonment or a fine of one thousand dollars. Under section 3 (3) (a) of the principal Ordinance conviction before the Supreme Court renders the offender liable to a term not exceeding two years and to a fine not exceeding two thousand dollars.

5. Section 3 of this Ordinance adds a paragraph to section 5 (1) of the principal Ordinance providing that a person shall be deemed to apply a trade mark or trade description to goods if he makes in any affidavit, declaration or writing a statement to the effect that a trade mark or trade description is applicable to the goods. This provision is inserted because cases some- times arise, which do not fall within the provisions of the Ferjury Ordinance, No. 21 of 1922, but in which false trade descriptions are made with reference to goods with a view to obtaining Empire preference, Customs or other facilities. In England under section 1 of the Merchandise Marks Act, 1891, the customs entry relating to imported goods is, for the purposes of the Act of 1887, on which the principal Ordinance. is founded, to be deemed to be a trade description applied to the goods. In this Colony the false trade descriptions are more often applied in the case of goods exported.

6. Section 11 (2) of the principal Ordinance which is founded on section 12 (2) of the Merchandise Marks Act, 1887, provides for informations or complaints laid or made for the

purpose of enforcing forfeiture in cases where the owner of goods or things, which would be liable to forfeiture on his conviction, is unknown or cannot be found.

7. Cases arise in which the owner is known, but is outside the jurisdiction of the courts. In order to remove doubts and to implement an undertaking given to the Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce in 1917 that the point would be dealt with at the next amendment of the Ordinance, section 4 of this Ordinance adds the words "in the Colony" after the words

'cannot be found".

8. Sub-sections (1) and (3) of section 5 of this Ordinance are based on sub-sections (1) and (3) of section 2 of the Mei- chandise Marks Act, 1891. The reference to the Legislature in sub-section 2 (1) of the Act is omitted as unnecessary and because it might be thought to conflict, to some extent, with Regulation 5 of the Regulations published in Statutory Rules and Orders, 1929, p. 1436, which it is intended to follow in the local regulations. Section 5 (2) of this Ordinance is in the usual form (compare section 2 (3) of Ordinance No. 35 of 1923).

Objects and Reasons.

1. This Ordinance repeals the Travellers Restriction Ordinance, 1915, and the Registration of Persons Ordinance, 1916, and re-enacts with some changes those of their provisions which it is considered desirable to retain.

2. Sections 2 and 3 and the Schedule are restricted to aliens other than those of Chinese race, they are in part new but are based mainly on sections 7 and 8 of Ordinance No. 19 of 1915, on sections 2 and 3 and the First and Second Schedules of Ordinance No. 6 of 1916, and the Registration. of Persons Bill, 1922.

3. The registration of Persons Ordinance, 1916, was not limited to aliens, and persons of Chinese race were excluded though the Governor in Council was given power in section ¿ to include them. It is considered impracticable to require the registration of all or even a substantial portion of the Chinese in the Colony.

C

229

4. Section 4, which is not limited to aliens but which does not apply to persons of Chinese race, re-enacts with very slight modification section 14 of Ordinance No. 19 of 1915. The section is made to apply to all hotel guests and not merely those over fourteen years of age.

5. Section 5 which requires passenger lists, in the case of non-Chinese enacts the existing practice and is derived from section 9 of Ordinance No. 19 of 1915.

6. Section 6 is derived in part from section 5 (a) of Ordinance No. 6 of 1916, and section 7 from section 16 of Ordinance No. 19 of 1915, but the penalties have been reduced.

7. The Schedule is more detailed than the Schedule to Ordinance No. 6 of 1916.

Amendment of Ordin- ance No. 7 1929, s. 2.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Sunday Cargo Working Ordin-

ance, 1929.

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 Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Paragraph (a) of section 2 of the Sunday Cargo Work- ing Ordinance, 1929 is repealed and the following paragraph is substituted therefor :-

(a) "Cargo" does not include coal for the ship's bunkers, water or other necessaries for the use of the ship, mails, personal luggage, live stock, ice, meat, fish, milk, cream, bread, confectionery, fruit, vegetables, flowers and other articles of a perishable nature.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 2 (a) of the principal Ordinance excluded mails, personal luggage, live stock, ice, and other articles of food of a perishable nature required for immediate con- sumption from the definition of "cargo" for the working of which Sunday permits were required.

2. It has not been the practice, however, strictly to enforce the provisions of the Ordinance with respect to coal for the ship's bunkers, water and other necessaries for the use of the ship.

3. At the suggestion of the Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce the practice of excluding such necessaries from the operation of the principal Ordinance is regularised by this amending Ordinance. The last sixteen words of the new definition are from the Second Schedule to the Shops Act, 1912 (2 Geo, 5. c. 3).

share in respect of the partly paid shares in the capital of the Company which was payable by the registered holders on or before the 15th December, 1933.

Some of such registered shareholders have not paid the call and the Company has notified those of such registered holders who are also the registered holders of fully paid shares that, unless payment of such call together with in- terest thereon is paid to the Company on or before the 28th day of March, 1934, the Direc- tors will, in addition to their other remedies, take steps to obtain payment by selling such fully paid shares in accordance with the powers conferred on the Company by its Articles.

It is realised that in some cases both partly paid and fully paid shares standing on the register in the name of the same shareholder have both been sold to the same persou but that such person has taken no steps to have his name put on the register.

While the Company can only deal with such shares in accordance with the share register it considers it advisable, though under no legal obligation to do so, to warn unregistered pur- chasers of such partly paid and fully paid shares of the intention of the Company in the event of any call not being paid on or before the 28th day of March, 1934, to enfore its powers of sale as regards such fully paid shares

Amendment of Ordin-

ance No. 7 1929, s. 2.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Sunday Cargo Working Ordin-

ance, 1929.

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 Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Paragraph (a) of section 2 of the Sunday Cargo Work- ing Ordinance, 1929 is repealed and the following paragraph is substituted therefor :-

(a) "Cargo" does not include coal for the ship's bunkers, water or other necessaries for the use of the ship, mails, personal luggage, live stock, ice, meat, fish, milk, cream, bread, confectionery, fruit, vegetables, flowers and other articles of a perishable nature.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 2 (a) of the principal Ordinance excluded mails, personal luggage, live stock, ice, and other articles of food of a perishable nature required for immediate con- sumption from the definition of "cargo" for the working of which Sunday permits were required.

2. It has not been the practice, however, strictly to enforce the provisions of the Ordinance with respect to coal for the ship's bunkers, water and other necessaries for the use of the ship.

3. At the suggestion of the Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce the practice of excluding such necessaries from the operation of the principal Ordinance is regularised by this amending Ordinance. The last sixteen words of the new definition are from the Second Schedule to the Shops Act, 1912 (2 Geo, 5. c. 3).

The signal ST meaning "I require a police boat' is to be substituted. The present night signal. three vertical lights, red, white, red, conflicts with the signal prescribed for a cable ship at work. It is to be changed to three vertical lights, white, red, white. The signal NM for "I am on fire" is to be changed to NQ and the signal YF "Want assistance-mutiny" is to be changed to RX.

Objects and Reasons.

1. This Ordinance repeals the Passports Ordinance, 1923, which delegated to the Governor in Council the power of regulating the admission of persons into the Colony and substitutes new provisions enacted by the legislature which are derived mainly, as to Part I, from the Travellers Restriction Ordinance. 1915, which is to be repealed by another Ordinance, and from the Straits Settlements Passengers Restriction Ordinance No. 169 as amended by the Straits Settlements Ordinance No. 1 of 1932, and as to Part II, from the existing Passport Regulations which were published by Government Notification No. 361 in the Hong Kong Government Gazette of the 10th June, 1932.

No. 16 of

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the law relating to Opium.

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 Opium Amend- ment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Section 15 of the Opium Ordinance, 1932, as amend- ed by the Opium Amendment Ordinance, 1933, is repealed and the following section is substituted therefor :-

1933.

Opium

divans and

smoking therein

prohibited.

15.-(1) No person shall

(a) smoke opium in any opium divan; or

(b) keep or manage or act or assist in the management of any opium divan; or

(c) being the tenant, lessee, occupier, or

               or person in charge of any place, knowingly permit such place or any part thereof to be used as an opium divan; or

(d) being the lessor or landlord of any place, or the agent of such lessor or landlord, let the same or any part thereof with the knowledge that such place or some part thereof is to be used as an opium divan, or consent to the use, at any time, of such place or any part thereof as an opium divan.

(2) In and for the purposes of this section

.(a) "lessee" and "tenant" respectively include any sub-lessee or sub-tenant;

(b) "lessor" and "landlord" respectively include the holder of any lease or tenancy who has sublet his holding or any part thereof: and

(c) the lessor or landlord of any place, or the agent of such lessor or landlord, shall be presumed to have consented to the use of such place as an opium divan, if it is proved, to the satisfaction of the magistrate, that he knew of such use, and failed forthwith to proceed to put an end to the same, by making a report at the nearest police station, or by terminating the lease or tenancy, or by such other means as are reasonably sufficient in all the circumstances of the case.

281

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 3 of the Opium Amendment Ordinance, 1933, amended section 15 of the principal Ordinance by "bringing within the scope of the section owners, occupiers and managers of premises who knowingly suffer them to be used as divans" (see the Objects and Reasons annexed to the draft Ordinance No. 16 of 1933).

2. In a recent case the Full Court decided that the tenant of a floor of a Chinese tenement house who had sublet a portion of that floor was not an occupier of the portion so sublet within the meaning of the amended section.

3. The present amendment substitutes for section 15 of the principal Ordinance an amended section on the lines of section 13 of the Criminal Law Amendment Act, 1885, (48) and 49 Vict. c. 69), re-enacting in different terms the provisions of old section 15 relating to persons who smoke in, keep or occupy an opium divan, and, in new paragraph 1 (d), extending those provisions to include a lessor or landlord who knowingly lets, or having let wilfully consents to the use of, his holding or any part thereof for the purposes of an opium divan.

4. Sub-section (2) of new section 15 indicates the scope of the terms "lessee", "tenant", "lessor" and "landlord" used in the section, and the steps which a lessor or landlord who becomes aware that the premises let by him are used as an opium divan should take in order to discharge the liability imposed on him by sub-section (1).

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Miscellaneous Licences Ordinance,

1933.

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 Miscellaneous Licences Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Section 2 of the Miscellaneous Licences Ordinance, 1933, is amended by the substitution of the following para- graph for paragraph (c) thereof :--

(c) "Hawker" means any person who trades in any street or public thoroughfare or goes from place to place, or goes on board any vessel, selling or exposing for sale any goods, wares or merchandise immediately to be delivered, or exposing sam- ples or patterns of any goods, wares or merchandise to be afterwards delivered, or selling or offering for sale his skill in handicraft, except a person selling or seeking orders for goods, wares or merchandise to or from persons who are dealers therein, and who buy to sell again.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The definition of a hawker in section 2 of the principal Ordinance does not include persons who sell only on board one vessel. The amended definition extends the definition by the addition of the words "or goes on board any vessel" to include such persons.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the law relating to Opium.

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 Opium Amend- ment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Section 15 of the Opium Ordinance, 1932, as amend- ed by the Opium Amendment Ordinance, 1933, is repealed and the following section is substituted therefor :--

1933.

Opium

divans and smoking

therein

prohibited.

15.-(1) No person shall

(a) smoke opium in any opium divan; or

(b) keep or manage or act or assist in the management of any opium divan; or

(c) being the tenant, lessee, occupier, or person in charge of any place, knowingly permit such place or any part thereof to be used as an opium divan; or

(d) being the lessor or landlord of any place, or the agent of such lessor or landlord, let the same or any part thereof with the knowledge that such place or some part thereof is to be used as an opium divan, or consent to the use, at any time, of such place or any part thereof as an opium divan.

(2) In and for the purposes of this section

(a) "lessee" and "tenant" respectively include any sub-lessee or sub-tenant;

(b) "lessor" and "landlord' respectively include the holder of any lease or tenancy who has sublet his holding or any part thereof; and

(c) the lessor or landlord of any place, or the agent of such lessor or landlord, shall be presumed to have consented to the use of such place as an opium divan, if it is proved, to the satisfaction of the magistrate, that he knew of such use, and failed forthwith to proceed to put an end to the same, by making a report at the nearest police station, or by terminating the lease or tenancy, or by such other means as are reasonably sufficient in all the circumstances of the case.

L

337

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 3 of the Opium Amendment Ordinance, 1933, amended section 15 of the principal Ordinance by "bringing within the scope of the section owners, occupiers and managers of premises who knowingly suffer them to be used as divans" (see the Objects and Reasons annexed to the draft Ordinance No. 16 of 1933).

2. In a recent case the Full Court decided that the tenant of a floor of a Chinese tenement house who had sublet a portion of that floor was not an occupier of the portion so sublet within the meaning of the amended section.

3. The present amendment substitutes for section 15 of the principal Ordinance an amended section on the lines of section 13 of the Criminal Law Amendment Act, 1885, (48 and 49 Vict. c. 69), re-enacting in different terms the provisions of old section 15 relating to persons who smoke in, keep or occupy an opium divan, and, in new paragraph 1 (d). extending those provisions to include a lessor or landlord who knowingly lets, or having let wilfully consents to the use of, his holding or any part thereof for the purposes of an opium divan.

4. Sub-section (2) of new section 15 indicates the scope of the terms "lessee", "tenant", "lessor" and "landlord" used in the section, and the steps which a lessor or landlord who becomes aware that the premises let by him are used as an opium divan should take in order to discharge the liability imposed on him by sub-section (1).

Objects and Reasons.

1. The Object of this Ordinance is to empower the Governor to raise a loan of $25,000,000 for the purposes specified in the Schedule. It is estimated that by the end of 1934 between ten and eleven million dollars will have been advanced out of surplus balances on account of public works, while a further $3,400,000 approximately will be required to pay off the Hong Kong Sterling 31% Inscribed Stock 1918/1943. Thus by the end of 1934 some $14,000,000 will be required to liquidate the position.

              The remaining $11,000,000 will be expended in the following three or four years in completing the various schemes.

2. As it is obviously impossible to foresee the exact expenditure that will be incurred on each item, provision is made in section 3 (2) for the transfer of money from one item in the Schedule to another, but no such transfer can be made. unless it has been approved by a resolution of the Legislative Council and by the Secretary of State.

3. Sections 4, 6, 7, 10, 12, and 13 are reproduced, mutatis mutandis, from the corresponding sections of the Public Works Loans Ordinance; 1927, Ordinance No. 14 of 1927.

4. Section 5 provides for the redemption of the bonds. issued at the annual rate of one twenty-fifth of the amount of each issue of such bonds. It is intended to raise about $14,000,000 forthwith and the balance by a further issue or issues as required. The bonds of each separate issue are to be redeemed at the rate of one twenty-fifth in each year

starting in the year after that in which the issue was made.

5. Section 8 makes provision for the appropriations from revenue for the redemption of the loan.

6. Under Section 9 interest on the loan is to be 31% which is payable half yearly.

7. The bonds drawn for redemption each year and the half-yearly interest are payable at the Hong Kong office of the Chartered Bank of India, Australia and China, to which also. under s. 11, the bonds drawn are to be delivered for cancellation.

8. Section 12 makes this loan a trustee investment.

9. No provision is made for the establishment of a sinking fund as the system of annual drawing provides for the redemption of the loan.

10 Section 13 exempts all appropriations for the payment of interest and for the redemption of the loan from liability to military contribution,

A BILL

INTITULED

[No. 17-7.6.34.-2.]

An Ordinance to amend the Pensions Ordinance, 1932.

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 Pensions Amend- ment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Section 2 (b) (i) of the Pensions Ordinance, 1932, is amended by adding the following proviso at the end thereof :

Provided also that no declaration that any office is a pensionable office shall be deemed to imply that any holder thereof, who is not on the permanent establishment of the Colony at the date of his retirement, shall be pensionable.

3. Section 2 (d) of the Pensions Ordinance, 1932, is amended by the deletion of the words "or under the Board of Education for England and Wales, or the Crown Agents for the Colonies, or the Colonial Audit Department (Home Establishment), or the Kenya and Uganda Railways and Harbour Administration" and by the substitution therefor of the words "or under the Crown Agents for the Colonies, or the Colonial Audit Department (Home Establishment), or the Kenya and Uganda Railways and Harbours Administration, or service which is pensionable under the Teachers (Super- annuation) Act, 1925".

4. Section 3 of the Pensions Ordinance, 1932, is repealed and the following section is substituted :-

3.-(1) It shall be lawful for the Governor in Council, with the sanction of the Secretary of State, to make regulations for the granting of pensions, gratuities and other allowances to persons who have been in the public service of the Colony, and to the dependants of such persons where such service is terminated by death.

(2) Every such regulation shall be laid before the Legisla tive Council and shall be published in the Gazette.

5. Section 17 of the Pensions Ordinance, 1932, is amend- ed by the substitution of the figure "10 (1) (b)" for the figures "10 (d)".

409

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 2 adds a second proviso to section 2 (b) of the principal Ordinance, so as to make it clear that officers who are on probation or who are for any reason temporarily employed shall not be pensionable merely because they hold one of the offices which has been declared pensionable by notification.

2. Section 3 of this Ordinance corrects the title of the Kenya and Uganda Railways and Harbours Administration and specifies more clearly the educational service set out in section 2 (d) of the principal Ordinance to comply with instructions contained in the Secretary of State's despatches of the 8th November, 1932, and 6th June, 1933.

3. Section 4 substitutes for section 3 of the principal Ordinance a re-enactment of the same in which at the end of sub-section (1) the words "and to the dependants of such persons where such service is terminated by death" have been added. Section 16 of the principal Ordinance provides for death gratuities to the estates of officers holding pensionable office who are not serving on probation or agreement. It is proposed to provide by Regulations under section 3 for death gratuities to dependants of non-pensionable officers.

4. Section 5 corrects an erroneous typographical reference in section 17 of the principal Ordinance.

A BILL

INTITULED

[No. 13-30.5.34.-2.7

An Ordinance to amend the Marriage Ordinance, 1875.

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 Marriage Amend- ment Ordinance, 1934.

2. The Marriage Ordinance, 1875, is amended by the insertion of the following section. numbered 12 A, im- mediately after section 12 thereof :-

12A. No licence of the Governor and no certificate of the Registrar of Marriages shall be issued under this Ordinance if either party to the intended marriage is under the age of sixteen years.

3. Section 13 of the Marriage Ordinance, 1875, is amended by the insertion of the words "of or over sixteen and after the word "is" in the second line thereof.

4. Sub-section (2) of section 26 of the Marriage Ordin- ance, 1875, as amended by the

 as amended by the Marriage Amendment Ordinance, 1926, is repealed and the following sub-section is substituted therefor:

(2) A marriage shall be null and void if both parties knowingly and wilfully acquiesce in its celebration in any place other than the office of the Registrar of Marriages or a licensed place of worship (except when authorised by a special licence), or under a false name or without a certificate of notice or licence duly issued, or by a person not being a competent minister or the Registrar of Marriages or his deputy, or if either party to the marriage is at the time of its celebration under the age of sixteen years.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The Marriage Ordinance, 1875, (as since amended), provides by section 13 that if either party to a marriage, not being a widow or widower, is under 21 the written consent of the father (or in certain cases of the mother, guardian or registrar of marriages) is necessary. Subject to such vicarious consent the age of personal consent in the case of "Christian" marriages in the Colony is the same as it was in England until 1929, that is to say, 14 in the case of males and 12 in the case of females. The Age of Marriage Act, 1929, (19 & 20 Geo. 5, c. 36), avoided marriages either party to which is under sixteen.

2. The Secretary of State desires the same age limit to be prescribed in Hong Kong.

A BILL

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the law relating to the protection of

Women and Girls.

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 Protection of Short title. Women and Girls Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Section 5 of the Women and Girls Protection Ordin- Repeal of ance, 1897. is repealed and the following section substituted therefor :-

5. Every person who carnally knows or attempts to have carnal knowledge of any unmarried girl, being of or above the age of thirteen years and under the age of sixteen years, shall be guilty of a misdemeanour : Provided that, where both parties are Asiatics, a girl shall not be deemed to be unmarried within the meaning of this Ordinance if she is duly married according to the laws and customs of the native country of the girl Provided also, that no prosecution shall be com- menced for an offence under this section more than twelve months after the commission of the offence.

3. Section 6 of the said Ordinance is amended by the substitution of the word "thirteen" for the word "twelve" in each sub-section thereof.

Amendment of s. 6 of

Ordinance No. 4 of 1897.

4. Section 7 of the said Ordinance is amended by the Amendment substitution of the word "sixteen" for the word "thirteen' in sub-section (2) thereof.

5. Section 11 of the said Ordinance is amended by the substitution of the word "thirteen" for the word "twelve" in each sub-section thereof, and by the repeal of the proviso contained in the last five lines thereof.

of s. 7 of Ordinance No. 4 of 1897.

Amendment

of s. 11 of Ordinance

No. 4 of

1897.

Objects and Reasons.

1. This Bill is introduced by direction of the Secretary of State in order to secure uniformity between local legislation and the law in England.

2. Under section 5 of the Protection of Women and Girls Ordinance, 1897, carnal knowledge actual or attempted of an unmarried girl who is over twelve but under sixteen is a misdemeanour; and by section 6 carnal knowledge by a male of any girl under 12 (whether she is married to him or not) is a felony, and attempted carnal knowledge of such girl a misdemeanour.

412

Similarly by section 11 a householder, etc., permitting the defilement of a girl on his premises

(a) if the girl is under 12, is guilty of felony; and

(b) if the girl is 12 or over and under 16, is guilty of a misdemeanour.

In each case the corresponding provision of the Criminal Law Amendment Acts in England and of legislation in other parts of the Empire has now fixed the lower age at 13.

The proposed amendments which substitute "thirteen' for "twelve' in the above three sections thus secure uniformity.

3. The new section 5 is otherwise a re-enactment of the old section, but omitting the second proviso, and allowing prosecution for an offence against the section to be instituted up to twelve (instead of three) months from the date of such offence. These amendments to the law at Home were made by the Criminal Law Amendment Act, 1922, and other similar Acts.

4. Similarly the effect of the amendment of section 7 is to raise the age of consent in indecent assault cases from thirteen to sixteen, as was also the effect of a provision of the Criminal Law Amendment Act, 1922.

5. In section 11 also the final proviso is repealed, the corresponding proviso in the Criminal Law Amendment Act of 1885 having been repealed by the Act of 1922.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The object of this Ordinance is to enable the colonial light dues prescribed by the Order in Council set out in the Appendix to be collected in Hong Kong.

2. The twelve lighthouses and the buoy mentioned in the Schedule to the Order in Council are administered by the Board of Trade and have been maintained by the General Lighthouse Fund which derives its revenues mainly from light dues collected in Great Britain, Northern Ireland and the Irish Free State.

3. They have been maintained and improved, at con- siderable expense, in the interests of shipping of all nations deriving benefit from the lights, and it has become necessary to reconsider the incidence of the cost of the service. To this end His Majesty has been pleased to make an Order in Council on the 17th December, 1931, under section 670 of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1894, providing for the levy of a due, of one penny per ton on all ships passing and deriving benefit from the lighthouses and buoy in the Bahamas, and of a half-penny per ton on ships passing and deriving benefit from the light at Sombrero.

4. As stated in the preamble to the Order in Council section 670 of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1894, also provides that colonial light dues shall not be levied in any British possession unless the legislature of that possession has signified its opinion that the dues ought to be levied. Section 2 of this Ordinance therefore expresses the statutory opinion. Section 3 makes provision for the collection locally.

1932.

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 Summary Offences Short title. Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Section 9 of the Summary Offences Ordinance, 1932, Amendment is amended by the addition of the following sub-section at ance No. 40 the end thereof :-

of 1932, s. 9.

(5) This section shall not apply in the case of any scaffolding of wood or bamboo necessarily erected for the removal of a dead body, provided that no such scaffolding shall be maintained for more than forty eight hours from the time of its erection except with the permission in writing of the Inspector General of Police.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 24 of the Regulation of Chinese Ordinance, 1888, (No. 3 of 1888) by sub-section (1) prohibited except on certain conditions the erection in the Colony of inflammable structures in

 in connection with religious ceremonies. or exhibitions, but by sub-section (2) exempted from this prohibi- tion, "scaffolding of wood or bamboo necessary for the removal of a dead body, if such scaffolding is removed within 48 hours from the time of its erection.

وو

2. Ordinance No. 3 of 1888, so far as it had not already been repealed, was finally repealed by the Law Revision Ordinance, 1930 (No. 25 of 1930).

3. By section 9 (1) of the Summary Offences Ordinance, 1932, (No. 40 of 1932)-"No person shall, except under and in accordance with a current licence or permit from the Director of Public Works or from a District Officer... erect or maintain any structure whatsoever upon ...

any

land which is not held under lease from the Crown.'

The advisability of retaining the exemption for funeral scaffolds that was secured by section 24 (2) of Ordinance No. 3 of 1888 appears to have been overlooked.

The Secretary for Chinese Affairs, the Inspector General of Police and the Building Authority agree that such exemption is desirable

Income

during a minority. 15 Geo. 5, c. 19, s. 31.

(i) during the infancy of any such person, if his interest so long continues, the trustees may, at their sole discretion, pay to his parent or guardian, if any, or otherwise apply for or towards his maintenance, education or bene- fit, the whole or such part, if any, of the income of that property as may, in all the circumstances, be reasonable, whether or not there is-

(a) any other fund applicable to the

same purpose; or

(b) any person bound by law to provide for his maintenance or education; and

(ii) if such person on attaining the age of twenty- one years has not a vested interest in such income, the trustees shall thenceforth pay the income of that property and of any ac- cretion thereto under sub-section (2) of this section to him, until he either attains a vested interest therein or dies, or until failure of his interest:

473

Provided that, in deciding whether the whole or any part of the income of the property is during a minority to be paid or applied for the purposes afore- said, the trustees shall have regard to the age of the infant and his requirements and generally to the cir- cumstances of the case, and in particular to what other income, if any, is applicable for the same pur- poses; and where trustees have notice that the income of more than one fund is applicable for those purposes, then, so far as practicable, unless the entire income of the funds is paid or applied as aforesaid or the Court otherwise directs, a proportionate part only of the income of each fund shall be so paid or applied.

(2) During the infancy of any such person, if his interest so long continues, the trustees shall accumu- late all the residue of that income in the way of com- pound interest by investing the same and the result- ing income thereof from time to time in authorised investments, and shall hold those accumulations as follows:-

(i) If any such person--

(a) attains the age of twenty-one years, or marries under that age, and his interest in such income during his infancy or until his marriage is a vested interest; or

(b) on attaining the age of twenty-one years or on marriage under that age becomes entitled to the property from which such income arose absolutely;

the trustees shall hold the accumulations in trust for such person absolutely, and so that the receipt of such person after marriage, and though still an infant, shall be a good discharge; and

(ii) In

any other case

use the trustees shall, notwith- standing that such person had a vested interest in such income, hold the accumula- tions as an accretion to the capital of the property from which such accumulations arose, and as one fund with such capital for all purposes;

but the trustees may, at any time during the infancy of such person if his interest so long continues, apply those accumulations, or any part thereof, as if they were income arising in the then current year.

(3) This section applies in the case of a contingent interest only if the limitation or trust carries the in- termediate income of the property, but it applies to a future or contingent legacy by the parent of, or a person standing in loco parentis to, the legatee, if and for such period as, under the general law, the legacy carries interest for the maintenance of the legatee, and in any such case as last aforesaid the rate of interest shall (if the income available is sufficient, and subject to any rules of court to the contrary) be five dollars per centum per annum.

(4) This section applies to a vested annuity in like manner as if the annuity were the income of property held by trustees in trust to pay the income thereof to the annuitant for the same period for which the an- nuity is payable, save that in any case accumulations made during the infancy of the annuitant shall be held in trust for the annuitant or his personal repre- sentatives absolutely.

(5) This section does not apply where the instru- ment, if any, under which the interest arises came into operation before the commencement of this Ordinance.

Provided that--

(a) the money so paid or applied for the advance- ment or benefit of any person shall not ex- ceed altogether in amount one half of the presumptive or vested share or interest of that person in the trust property; and (b) if that person is or becomes absolutely and indefeasibly entitled to a share in the trust property the money so paid or applied shall be brought into account as part of such share; and

(c) no such payment or application shall be made so as to prejudice any person entitled to any prior life or other interest, whether vested or contingent, in the money paid or applied un- less such person is in existence and of full age and consents in writing to such payment or application.

(2) This section applies only where the trust pro- perty consists of money or securities or of property held upon trust for sale calling in and conversion, and such money or securities, or the proceeds of such sale calling in and conversion are not by statute or in equity considered as land.

(i) Upon trust for the principal beneficary during the trust period or until he, whether before or after the termination of any prior interest, does or attempts to do or suffers any act or thing, or until any event happens, other than an advance under any statutory or express power, whereby, if the said income were pay- able during the trust period to the principal beneficiary absolutely during that period, he would be deprived of the right to receive the same or any part thereof, in any of which cases, as well as on the termination of the trust period, whichever first happens, this trust of the said income shall fail or deter- mine;

(ii) If the trust aforesaid fails or determines dur- ing the subsistence of the trust period, then, during the residue of that period, the said income shall be held upon trust for the ap- plication thereof for the maintenance or sup- port, or otherwise for the benefit, of all or any one or more exclusively of the other or

475

others of the following persons (that is to say)-

(a) the principal beneficiary and his or her wife or husband, if any, and his or her children or more remote issue, if any; or

(b) if there is no wife or husband or issue

of the principal beneficiary in exist ence, the principal beneficiary and the persons who would, if he were actually dead, be entitled to the trust property or the income thereof or to the annuity fund, if any, or arrears of the annuity, as the case may be;

as the trustees in their absolute discretion, without being liable to account for the exer. cise of such discretion, think fit.

(2) This section does not apply to trusts coming into operation before the commencement of this Ordinance, and has effect subject to any variation of the implied trusts aforesaid contained in the instru- ment creating the trust.

(3) Nothing in this section operates to validate any trust which would, if contained in the instrument creating the trust, be liable to be set aside.

(e) that any trustee or mortgagee has died in- testate without leaving a person beneficially interested under the intestacy or has died and it is not known who is his personal represen- tative or the person interested;

the fact that the order has been so made shall be conclusive evidence of the matter so alleged in any court upon any question as to the validity of the order; but this section does not prevent the court from directing a reconveyance or surrender or the payment of costs occasioned by any such order if improperly obtained.

Jurisdiction to make other Order.

(2) The court may, from time to time, rescind or vary any order under this section, or may make any new or further order.

(3) An application to the court under this section may be made by the trustees, or by any of them, or by any person beneficially interested under the trust.

57.-(1) An order under this Ordinance for the ap- pointment of a new trustee or concerning any interest in land, stock or thing in action subject to a trust, may be made on the application of any person bene- ficially interested in the land, stock, or thing in action, whether under disability or not, or on the application of any person duly appointed trustee thereof.

58. Where in any action the court is satisfied that diligent search has been made for any person who, in the character of trustee, is made a defendant in any action, to serve him with a process of the court, and that he cannot be found, the court may hear and determine the action and give judgment therein against that person in his character of a trustee as if he had been duly served, or had entered an appear- ance in the action, and had also appeared by his solicitor at the hearing, but without prejudice to any interest he may have in the matters in question in the action in any other character.

(2) This section applies to breaches of trust com- mitted as well before as after the commencement of this Ordinance.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The object of this Bill is to substitute for the Trustees Ordinance, 1901, an Ordinance framed on the lines of the Trustee Act, 1925 (15 Geo. 5, c. 19) and the Straits Settlements Ordin- ances No. 31 of 1926 and No. 14 of 1929, and to incorporate therein certain provisions of the Judicial Trustees Act, 1896.

2. The principal amendments made by the Bill are as follows:

(a) A trustee, unless expressly prohibited by the instru- ment creating the trust, may invest in securities payable to bearer, which, if not so payable, would have been authorised investments. But a trustee other than a trust corporation must deposit the securities for safe custody with a banker (s. 8).

(b) Trustees when lending money, may contract that the money shall not be called in during any period not exceeding seven years. On a sale of land, they may contract that the payment of a part, not ex- ceeding two-thirds, of the purchase money shall be secured by mortgage of the land sold. Where securities of a company are subject to a trust, the trustees may concur in any arrangement for the

502

reconstruction of the company, for the sale of any of its property to another company or for its amal- gamation with another company, and, if any pre- ferential right is offered to the trustees in respect of their holding, they may exercise or renounce or assign it (s. 11).

(c) Trustees are given power to deposit money at a

bank and to pay calls out of capital money (s. 12).

(d) A sole trustee, not being a trust corporation, will not be able to give a valid receipt for the proceeds of sale or other capital money arising under a disposi- tion on trust for the sale of land, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the instrument creating the trust (s. 15).

(e) A personal representative, or two or more trustees acting together, or in some cases a sole acting trustee, may accept any property before the time at which it is made payable and may sever and apportion blended trust funds (s. 16).

(f) Where trustees are authorised to apply capital money for any purpose, they shall have, and shall be deemed always to have had, power to raise the money required by sale or mortgage, notwithstand- ing anything to the contrary contained in the trust instrument. This does not apply to trustees of a charity (s. 18).

(g) A trustee may insure trust property against loss by fire and typhoon up to the full value of the property (s. 21).

(h) The application of insurance monies received by

trustees is provided for (s. 22).

(i) Trustees and personal representatives may employ agents to sell or manage property outside the Colony (s. 25).

(j) Power is given to a trustee, who intends to remain out of the Colony for a period exceeding one month, to delegate to any person by power of attorney the execution or exercise of the trust (s. 27).

(k) Additional protection is afforded to trustees (ss. 28,

29, 30 and 31).

(1) An elaborate maintenance clause is provided and an

advancement clause (ss. 33 and 34).

(m) A statutory protective trust is provided similar to that which is often inserted in a will or settlement where the legatee or beneficiary is improvident. It will be sufficient to direct that the fund is to be held on "protective trusts" (s. 35).

(n) In the case of future settlements and dispositions on trust for the sale of land the number of trustees shall not exceed four. In the case of existing trustees holding land on trust for sale the number of trustees, if over four, is to be reduced to four by means of leaving vacancies unfilled-these restric- tions are not to apply in the case of land vested in trustees for charitable or public purposes (s. 36).

(0) The donees of a power of appointment of new trustees may appoint themselves, and а new trustee may be appointed in place of an infant Additional trustees may be appointed, although there is no vacancy, but the number of trustees must not be increased beyond four (s. 37).

(p) Where the court appoints a corporation as trustee, it may authorise it to charge remuneration (s. 43).

503

(a) Power is given to the court to authorise trustees to do acts which are ultra vires but are in the opinion of the court expedient (s. 56).

(r) Provisions are made for the appointment of a Judicial Trustee similar to the provisions of the Judicial Trustee Act, 59 and 60 Vict s. 35, (ss. 63, 64 and 65).

(s) S. 17 of the new Ordinance which reproduces s. 31 (1) & (2) of the Trustees Ordinance, 1901, does not appear in the Trustee Act, 1925 but is retained as it appears in the Straits Settlements Ordinance No. 14 of 1929.

(t) S. 61 of the Trustees Ordinance, 1901, which enabled Trustees to apply to the court for advice has been omitted. That section was founded on section 30 of the Law of Property Amendment Act, 1859, (Lord St. Leonard's Act) which was repealed by the Trustee Act, 1893. It is considered that the new Ordinance coupled with section 627 of the Code of Civil Procedure is sufficient.

(u) Part VIII of the new Ordinance permits the form- ation of Trust Companies and is taken from the provisions of Ordinance No. 31 of 1926 of the Straits Settlements.

3. Notwithstanding the inclusion in the new Ordiiance (s. 62) of a provision relating to payment into court by trustees and to the inclusion in Part VI (ss. 63, 64 and 65) of provisions relating to judicial trustees, it has been considered desirable to retain the provisions of Part I of the Trustees Ordinance, 1901. This is effected accordingly by the inclusion of that Part as Part VII of the new Ordinance.

4. A Table of correspondence between the clauses of the bill and the sections of the Trustees Ordinance, 1901, and the Trustee Act, 1925, is attached.

509

Paragraph (i), relating to land sales, comes from the latter part of the repealed section 2.

Paragraph (ii), relating to condemned stores, appears in Appendix II of the draft Estimates for 1934 as authorised by C.O. despatch 129 of 29th April, 1922.

Paragraph (iii), relating to Gap Rock Lighthouse, ex- presses the agreement by the Army Council in paragraph 4 of the War Office letter of the 25th April, 1932, enclosed with the Secretary of State's despatch of the 3rd June, 1932.

Paragraph (iv), relating to anti-piracy escorts, and para- graph (v) relating to overpayments, expresses the agreement by the Army Council in paragraph 5 of the said letter.

Paragraphs (vi) and (vii), relating to transfers to revenue under Colonial Regulation 291 and to profits from the ap- preciation of investments when realised, represent the under- standing referred to in Colonial Office letter of 14th October, 1932, to the War Office enclosed with the Secretary of State's Despatch of the 22nd October, 1932.

Paragraph (viii) refers to section 5 of the Widows and Orphans Pension Ordinance, No. 15 of 1908, the consolidation of which with its amending ordinances is in course of pre- paration.

Paragraph (ix) refers to the War Loan Ordinance, 1916, (No. 12 of 1916), which has not been repealed although the loan authorised and raised thereunder has been repaid, to the Public Works Loan Redemption Ordinance, 1933, (No. 15 of 1933), and to the Hong Kong Dollar Loan Ordinance, 1934, (No. 11 of 1934), under which a sum not exceeding $25,000,000 is to be raised by borrowing for various projects, including the redemption this year, at a cost which is estimated at present at $3,400,000, of the balance of the Hong Kong 31% Inscribed Stock 1918/43.

Paragraph (x) refers to section 9 (8) of Ordinance No. 41 of 1912, the operation of which Ordinance is, however, suspended by Proclamation No. 3 in the Hong Kong Govern- ment Gazette of the 7th February, 1913.

Paragraph (xi) refers to routine realisations dealt with in paragraphs 12 and 13 of the Governor's despatch No. 400 of 10th September, 1929, and agreed to in paragraph 11 of the War Office letter to the Colonial Office of the 25th April, 1932.

5. The new section 3 (3) (i) represents the first proviso to the repealed section 3 of the principal Ordinance, with the words "already established or" added after the words "similar character" as directed by the Secretary of State's telegrams of the 18th October and 27th October, 1933.

The new section 3 (3) (ii) sets out the productive under- takings other than railways and telephones which have been recognised as entitled to similar treatment. The Opium Mono- poly appears in Appendix II of the draft Estimates for 1934 as recognised under Colonial Office despatch No. 173 of 10th July, 1914. The Government Wireless Telegraphy Services were recognised in paragraph 2 of the War Office letter of 25th April, 1932, enclosed with the Secretary of State's des-

510

patch of 3rd June, 1932. The Government Motor Meat Van Services and the Water Installation (House Service) Account were recognised in paragraphs 3 and 5 of the same letter.

6. The new section 3 (4) relates to the deduction at the rate of 5 per cent in respect of the capital expenditure on the Government Wireless Telegraphy Services for the years 1915 to 1932 referred to in paragraph 2 of the War Office letter of 25th April, 1932, enclosed with the Secretary of State's despatch of 3rd June, 1932, and in paragraph 3 of the War Office letter of 25th February, 1933, enclosed with the Secretary of State's despatch of 7th March, 1933. It has been redrafted to comply with the Secretary of State's despatch of the 27th February, 1934, enclosing the War Office letter of the 30th January, 1934.

Objects and Reasons.

1. This Ordinance repeals the Ordinances relating to the Registration of Births and Deaths and re-enacts them in a consolidated form with certain amendments more particularly set out in the Table of Correspondence.

2. The principal changes in the law effected by this Ordinance are:-

(1) Appointments of deputy and assistant registrars will be made by the Governor instead of by the Registrar of Births and Deaths (section 3 (3)).

(2) Any birth or death and not merely, as heretofore, only the births or deaths of Chinese, may be registered in a district register office (section 4).

(3) Certified copies of entries in the district registers will be sent once a month to the General Register Office where they will be preserved for record (sections 3 (1) and 5).

(4) The title of the Registrar of Births and Deaths is changed to Registrar General of Births and Deaths (section 2).

(5) Information as to births must be given within 14 days instead of within 7 days or 42 days under the correspond- ing sections of the repealed Ordinance (sections 7 and 8).

(6) No fee is charged for registration (section 9).

(7) As hitherto births are not to be registered after the expiration of twelve months except with consent of the Registrar General. Under the repealed Ordinances (No. 7 of 1896, s. 10, as amended by No. 26 of 1931) the fee for such late registration was five dollars. Under the new Ordinance no fee will be charged (section 9 (3)).

(8) Any person obtaining registration of the birth of a child will be entitled to a free certificate of the birth (section 9 (4)). It is hoped that this provision as well as the others mentioned above will encourage the registration of Births especially in the New Territories.

(9) Registrations more than 14 days after birth are made in a special Post Register book (sections 4 (3) and 9 (2) and (3)). This will facilitate searches.

(10) Deaths reported after 48 hours are also to be registered in post register books (sections 4 (3) and 14 (4)).

(11) Magistrates may issue cremation orders as well as burial orders (sections 16 (1) and 17 (1)).

3. The sections transferred from the old to the new Ordinance have been revised and in many instances redrafted.

for

maintenance and to

accumulate

surplus income during a minority. 15 Geo. 5, c. 19, s. 31.

(i) during the infancy of any such person, if his interest so long continues, the trustees may, at their sole discretion, pay to his parent or guardian, if any, or otherwise apply for or towards his maintenance, education or bene- fit, the whole or such part, if any, of the income of that property as may, in all the circumstances, be reasonable, whether or not there is-

(a) any other fund applicable to the

same purpose; or

(b) any person bound by law to provide for his maintenance or education; and

(ii) if such person on attaining the age of twenty- one years has not a vested interest in such income, the trustees shall thenceforth pay the income of that property and of any ac- cretion thereto under sub-section (2) of this section to him, until he either attains a vested interest therein or dies, or until failure of his interest:

565

Provided that, in deciding whether the whole or any part of the income of the property is during a minority to be paid or applied for the purposes afore- said, the trustees shall have regard to the age of the infant and his requirements and generally to the cir- cumstances of the case, and in particular to what other income, if any, is applicable for the same pur- poses; and where trustees have notice that the income of more than one fund is applicable for those purposes, then, so far as practicable, unless the entire income of the funds is paid or applied as aforesaid or the Court otherwise directs, a proportionate part only of the income of each fund shall be so paid or applied.

(2) During the infancy of any such person, if his interest so long continues, the trustees shall accumu- late all the residue of that income in the way of com- pound interest by investing the same and the result- ing income thereof from time to time in authorised investments, and shall hold those accumulations as follows:

(i) If any such person-

(a) attains the age of twenty-one years, or marries under that age, and his interest in such income during his infancy or until his marriage is a vested interest; or

(b) on attaining the age of twenty-one -years or on marriage under that age becomes entitled to the property from which such income arose absolutely;

the trustees shall hold the accumulations in trust for such person absolutely, and so that the receipt of such person after marriage, and though still an infant, shall be a good discharge; and

(ii) In any other case the trustees shall, notwith- standing that such person had a vested interest in such income, hold the accumula- tions as an accretion to the capital of the property from which such accumulations arose, and as one fund with such capital for all purposes;

but the trustees may, at any time during the infancy of such person if his interest so long continues, apply those accumulations, or any part thereof, as if they were income arising in the then current year.

(3) This section applies in the case of a contingent interest only if the limitation or trust carries the in- termediate income of the property, but it applies to a future or contingent legacy by the parent of, or a person standing in loco parentis to, the legatee, if and for such period as, under the general law, the legacy carries interest for the maintenance of the legatee, and in any such case as last aforesaid the rate of interest shall (if the income available is sufficient, and subject to any rules of court to the contrary) be five dollars per centum per annum.

(4) This section applies to a vested annuity in like manner as if the annuity were the income of property held by trustees in trust to pay the income thereof to the annuitant for the same period for which the an- nuity is payable, save that in any case accumulations made during the infancy of the annuitant shall be held in trust for the annuitant or his personal repre- sentatives absolutely.

(5) This section does not apply where the instru- ment, if any, under which the interest arises came into operation before the commencement of this Ordinance.

Provided that-

(a) the money so paid or applied for the advance- ment or benefit of any person shall not ex- ceed altogether in amount one half of the presumptive or vested share or interest of that person in the trust property; and (b) if that person is or becomes absolutely and indefeasibly entitled to a share in the trust property the money so paid or applied shall be brought into account as part of such share; and

(c) no such payment or application shall be made. so as to prejudice any person entitled to any prior life or other interest, whether vested or contingent, in the money paid or applied un- less such person is in existence and of full age and consents in writing to such payment or application.

(2) This section applies only where the trust pro- perty consists of money or securities or of property held upon trust for sale calling in and conversion, and such money or securities, or the proceeds of such sale calling in and conversion are not by statute or in equity considered as land.

Upon trust for the principal beneficiary during the trust period or until he, whether before or after the termination of any prior interest, does or attempts to do or suffers any act or thing, or until any event happens, other than an advance under any statutory or express power, whereby, if the said income were pay- able during the trust period to the principal beneficiary absolutely during that period, he would be deprived of the right to receive the same or any part thereof, in any of which cases, as well as on the termination of the trust period, whichever first happens, this trust of the said income shall fail or deter- mine;

(ii) If the trust aforesaid fails or determines dur- ing the subsistence of the trust period, then, during the residue of that period, the said income shall be held upon trust for the ap- plication thereof for the maintenance or sup- port, or otherwise for the benefit, of all or any one or more exclusively of the other or

567

others of the following persons (that is to: say)-

(a) the principal beneficiary and his or her wife or husband, if any, and his or her children or more remote issue, if any; or

(b) if there is no wife or husband or issue of the principal beneficiary in exist- ence, the principal beneficiary and the persons who would, if he were actually dead, be entitled to the trust property or the income thereof or to the annuity fund, if any, or arrears of the annuity, as the case may be;

as the trustees in their absolute discretion, without being liable to account for the exer- cise of such discretion, think fit.

(2) This section does not apply to trusts coming into operation before the commencement of this Ordinance, and has effect subject to any variation of the implied trusts aforesaid contained in the instru- ment creating the trust.

(3) Nothing in this section operates to validate any trust which would, if contained in the instrument creating the trust, be liable to be set aside.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The object of this Bill is to substitute for the Trustees Ordinance, 1901, an Ordinance framed on the lines of the Trustee Act, 1925 (15 Geo. 5, c. 19) and the Straits Settlements Ordin- ances No. 31 of 1926 and No. 14 of 1929, and to incorporate therein certain provisions of the Judicial Trustees Act, 1896.

2. The principal amendments made by the Bill are as follows:

(a) A trustee, unless expressly prohibited by the instru- ment creating the trust, may invest in securities payable to bearer, which, if not so payable, would have been authorised investments. But a trustee other than a trust corporation must deposit the securities for safe custody with a banker (s. 8).

(b) Trustees when lending money, may contract that the money shall not be called in during any period not exceeding seven years. On a sale of land, they may contract that the payment of a part, not ex- ceeding two-thirds, of the purchase money shall be secured by mortgage of the land sold. Where securities of a company are subject to a trust, the trustees may concur in any arrangement for the

594

reconstruction of the company, for the sale of any of its property to another company or for its amal- gamation with another company, and, if any pre- ferential right is offered to the trustees in respect of their holding, they may exercise or renounce or assign it (s. 11).

(c) Trustees are given power to deposit money at a

bank and to pay calls out of capital money (s. 12).

(d) A sole trustee, not being a trust corporation, will not be able to give a valid receipt for the proceeds of sale or other capital money arising under a disposi- tion on trust for the sale of land, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the instrument creating the trust (s. 15).

(e) A personal representative, or two or more trustees acting together, or in some cases a sole acting trustee, may accept any property before the time at which it is made payable and may sever and apportion blended trust funds (s. 16).

(f) Where trustees are authorised to apply capital money for any purpose, they shall have, and shall be deemed always to have had, power to raise the money required by sale or mortgage, notwithstand- ing anything to the contrary contained in the trust instrument. This does not apply to trustees of a charity (s. 18).

(g) A trustee may insure trust property against loss by fire and typhoon up to the full value of the property (s. 21).

(h) The application of insurance monies received by

trustees is provided for (s. 22).

(i) Trustees and personal representatives may employ agents to sell or manage property outside the Colony (s. 25).

(j) Power is given to a trustee, who intends to remain out of the Colony for a period exceeding one month, to delegate to any person by power of attorney the execution or exercise of the trust (s. 27).

(k) Additional protection is afforded to trustees (ss. 28,

29, 30 and 31).

(1) An elaborate maintenance clause is provided and an

advancement clause (ss. 33 and 34).

(m) A statutory protective trust is provided similar to that which is often inserted in a will or settlement where the legatee or beneficiary is improvident. It will be sufficient to direct that the fund is to be held on "protective trusts" (s. 35).

(n) In the case of future settlements and dispositions on trust for the sale of land the number of trustees shall not exceed four. In the case of existing trustees holding land on trust for sale the number of trustees, if over four, is to be reduced to four by means of leaving vacancies unfilled-these restric- tions are not to apply in the case of land vested in trustees for charitable or public purposes (s. 36).

(0) The donees of a power of appointment of new trustees may appoint themselves, and a new trustee may be appointed in place of an infant Additional trustees may be appointed, although there is no vacancy, but the number of trustees must not be increased beyond four (s. 37).

(p) Where the court appoints a corporation as trustee, it may authorise it to charge remuneration (s. 43).

595

(9) Power is given to the court to authorise trustees to do acts which are ultra vires but are in the opinion of the court expedient (s. 56).

(r) Provisions are made for the appointment of a Judicial Trustee similar to the provisions of the Judicial Trustee Act, 59 and 60 Vict s. 35, (ss. 63, 64 and 65).

(8) S. 17 of the new Ordinance which reproduces s. 31 (1) & (2) of the Trustees Ordinance, 1901, does not appear in the Trustee Act, 1925 but is retained as it appears in the Straits Settlements Ordinance No. 14 of 1929.

(t) S. 61 of the Trustees Ordinance, 1901, which enabled Trustees to apply to the court for advice has been omitted. That section was founded on section 30 of the Law of Property Amendment Act, 1859, (Lord St. Leonard's Act) which was repealed by the Trustee Act, 1893. It is considered that the new Ordinance coupled with section 627 of the Code of Civil Procedure is sufficient.

(u) Part VIII of the new Ordinance permits the form- ation of Trust Companies and is taken from the provisions of Ordinance No. 31 of 1926 of the Straits Settlements.

3. Notwithstanding the inclusion in the new Ordinance (s. 62) of a provision relating to payment into court by trustees and to the inclusion in Part VI (ss. 63, 64 and 65) of provisions relating to judicial trustees, it has been considered desirable to retain the provisions of Part I of the Trustees Ordinance, 1901. This is effected accordingly by the inclusion of that Part as Part VII of the new Ordinance.

4. A Table of correspondence between the clauses of the bill and the sections of the Trustees Ordinance, 1901, and the Trustee Act, 1925, is attached.

A BILL

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Crown Counsel's Fees Ordinance,

1903.

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 Counsel's Short title. Fees Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

any

ance No. 24

2. Section 2 of the Crown Counsel's Fees Ordinance, Amendment 1903, is amended by the insertion of the words "or of Ordin- Assistant Attorney General or any Counsel attached to the of 1903, s. 2. Attorney General's department' immediately after the words "Attorney General' in each sub-section thereof.

Objects and Reasons.

1. When the principal Ordinance, No. 24 of 1903, was framed to allow of the taxation and recovery of the appro· priate fee for counsel where the Attorney General had appeared and won his case, and when the Law Final Revision Ordinance, 1912, made such fees, in the absence of some contractual arrangement or regulation to the contrary, payable into the general revenue, the possibility of the appointment of an Assistant Attorney General or other counsel to assist in the work of the Attorney General's department was apparently overlooked.

2. In a recent appeal case in which the Crown was interested, the Assistant Attorney General appeared for the respondent, and on the appeal being dismissed obtained an order for costs against the appellant. The bill of costs including fee for counsel was duly paid, but it was then discovered that it was very doubtful whether under the law, as it stands, such a fee was rightly included in the bill.

3. The present amendment cures this defect.

Objects and Reasons.

1. This Ordinance repeals the Ordinances relating to the Registration of Births and Deaths and re-enacts them in a consolidated form with certain amendments more particularly set out in the Table of Correspondence.

2. The principal changes in the law effected by this Ordinance are:-

(1) Appointments of deputy and assistant registrars will be made by the Governor instead of by the Registrar of Births and Deaths (section 3 (3)).

(2) Any birth or death and not merely, as heretofore, only the births or deaths of Chinese, may be registered in a district register office (section 4).

(3) Certified copies of entries in the district registers will be sent once a month to the General Register Office where they will be preserved for record (sections 3 (1) and 5),

(4) The title of the Registrar of Births and Deaths is changed to Registrar General of Births and Deaths (section 2).

(5) Information as to births must be given within 14 days instead of within 7 days or 42 days under the correspond- ing sections of the repealed Ordinance (sections 7 and 8).

(6) No fee is charged for registration (section 9).

(7) As hitherto births are not to be registered after the expiration of twelve months except with consent of the Registrar General. Under the repealed Ordinances (No. 7 of 1896, s. 10, as amended by No. 26 of 1931) the fee for such late registration was five dollars. Under the new Ordinance no fee will be charged (section 9 (3)).

(8) Any person obtaining registration of the birth of a child will be entitled to a free certificate of the birth (section 9 (4)). It is hoped that this provision as well as the others mentioned above will encourage the registration of Births especially in the New Territories.

(9) Registrations more than 14 days after birth are made in a special Post Register book (sections 4 (3) and 9 (2) and (3)). This will facilitate searches.

(10) Deaths reported after 48 hours are also to be registered in post register books (sections 4 (3) and 14 (4)).

(11) Magistrates may issue cremation orders as well as burial orders (sections 16 (1) and 17 (1)).

3. The sections transferred from the old to the new Ordinance have been revised and in many instances redrafted.

A BILL

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Jury Ordinance, 1887.

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 Jury Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Sections 13 and 14 of the Jury Ordinance, 1887, are repealed and the following sections are substituted :-

13.-(1) In forming any panel, the Registrar shall pass over the names of all persons drawn who are dead or absent from the Colony, but shall return to the ballot box the names of any temporary absentees.

(2) In forming a panel under section 9 of the Coroner's Abolition Ordinance, 1888, the Registrar may also pass over and return to the ballot box the names of any persons drawn, if, in his opinion, such persons cannot conveniently be served in sufficient time to secure their attendance as jurors at the inquiry.

14. The Registrar shall issue summonses, according to the form in the Schedule, which shall be served on the persons drawn either personally or by leaving the same at their respec- tive residences or places of business; provided that where per- sonal service is not effected the summons shall be left not less than two clear days before the day appointed for the sitting of the court.

3. Section 23 of the Jury Ordinance, 1887, is amended by the substitution of the words "Registrar or clerk of the court, who" for the words "Registrar; and the Registrar" in the fifth line.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 2 of this Ordinance repeals sections 13 and 14 of the principal Ordinance and re-enacts them with modific- ations.

655

2. Section 13 permitted the Registrar of the Supreme Court, in forming any jury panel, to pass over the names of persons drawn who could not be served with summonses by reason of death or absence from the Colony. The substituted section 13 permits him in forming a panel under section 9 of the Coroner's Abolition Ordinance, 1888, to pass over also the names of persons drawn who in his opinion cannot convenient- ly be served in sufficient time to secure their attendance as jurors. Death inquiries under section 8 of the latter Ordin- ance have to be held at very short notice.

3. Section 14 of the Jury Ordinance, 1887, required that Jurors' summonses should be either served personally or left at the usual place of abode of the persons drawn two clear days before the day appointed for the sitting of the court.

4. The provision requiring two clear days notice is im- practicable in cases under section 8 of the Coroner's Abolition Ordinance, 1888, and unnecessary where personal service is effected. Moreover with the expansion of residential districts on both sides of the harbour it has become increasingly difficult to effect service at the residential addresses (c.f. definition of "Abode" in Stroud's Judicial Dictionary Vol. 3 p. 1489) of the persons drawn. For many years it has been the practice to serve the summonses by leaving at the jurors' places of business instead of at their residences,

5. The substituted section 14 requires two days notice only in those cases where personal service is not effected and regularises the practice of leaving the summonses at the places of business of the jurors concerned.

6. Section 3 amends section 23 of the Jury Ordinance, 1887, by allowing the clerk of the court to act as the officer of the court who takes and records verdicts. It is impractic- able for the Registrar to be present in court on all occasions when verdicts are given, and the amendment regularises a practice which has prevailed for many years.

[s. 14.7

To each and all of the constables of Hong Kong and to the Superintendent of Prisons.

Magistrate.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 2 of this Ordinance inserts a new section 2 in the principal Ordinance empowering the Governor in Council. to make rules, similar to the power exercised in England by the Lord Chancellor with the concurrence of the Secretary of State under section 26 of the Coroners (Amendment) Act, 1926 (16 and 17 Geo. 5 c. 30), on which the section is based.

2. Section 3 of this Ordinance makes a verbal amendment in section 4 of the principal Ordinance, rendered necessary by the appointment of more than two magistrates.

3. Section 5 of this Ordinance substitutes for section 8 of the principal Ordinance a new section, of which sub-section (1), based on section 5 of the Capital Punishment Amendment Act, 1868 (31 & 32 Vict. c. 24), relates to inquiries on the bodies of prisoners who have suffered capital punishment, and sub-section (2), founded on section 3 of the Coroners Act, 1887 (50 & 51 Vict. c. 71), to deaths in prison. Old section 8, which applied to both classes of inquiry, required an inquiry to be held within 24 hours of the death (or 48 hours if a Sun- day intervened), but as it has been found impracticable to summon a jury within this period for all inquiries into deaths in prison, the provision has, as in England, been restricted in new section 8 to inquiries on the bodies of executed offenders.

Sub-section (3) of new section 8 removes a doubt as to whether a "view" is required in inquiries under sub-sections (1) and (2) of that section.

In ordinary death inquiries under section 7 of the principal Ordinance it is left to the discretion of the magistrate whether or not there shall be a view of the body.

Old section 8 originally required a view of the body in the cases to which it applied; but section 30 of the Schedule to the Law Revision Ordinance, No. 5 of 1924, authorised the dele- tion of the words "view the body and".

660

It is open to question whether this alteration by a Revision Ordinance had the effect of abolishing the view in cases under old section 8; especially as section 4 imposes on magistrates the duties which a Coroner had by law at the commencement of the Ordinance, one of those duties being a view of the body (Rex v. Haslewood 1926 II K.B. 468).

In the Straits Settlements by section 326 (2) of Ordinance. No. 121 provision is made for a view of the body where it appears to the greater number of the jury to be expedient. In England by section 14 of the Coroners (Amendment) Act, 1926, a view by the Coroner is still necessary and by the jury also if a majority so desires.

In the circumstances it is considered desirable to add, in sub-section (3) of new section 8, words which will make it clear that at inquiries under the section the magistrate shall view the body but that a view by the jury shall not be necessary unless it appears to the magistrate or to the greater number of the jurors expedient for the jury to do so.

4. Section 6 of this Ordinance adds a new sub-section to section 12 of the principal Ordinance requiring a magistrate who holds an inquiry without a jury to record his finding in the same way as he records the finding of the jury under sub-section (1) of that section.

5. Section 7 of this Ordinance adds to section 13 of the principal Ordinance three new sub-sections of which sub- sections (2) and (3), based on section 20 (1) and (3) of the Coroners (Amendment) Act, 1926, provide for the adjourn- ment of an inquiry in cases where a person has been charged before a magistrate with causing the death of the person whose death is the subject of the inquiry, and regulate the procedure in cases where such inquiry is re-opened after the jury has been discharged.

New sub-section (4) provides for the continuity of pro- ceedings at an adjourned inquiry held by a magistrate alone or with the same jury as at the original inquiry.

6. Under section 14 of the principal Ordinance any person against whom, at an inquiry, evidence of an offence has been disclosed may be prosecuted according to the ordinary pro- cedure before magistrates or, at the discretion of the magistrate holding the inquiry, committed for trial at the Supreme Court. Section 8 of this Ordinance abolishes this discretion, and makes prosecution before a magistrate necessary in all cases before trial.

The object of sections 7 and 8 of this Ordinance is to ensure that every accused person shall be charged as soon as possible with the offence of which he is accused, and shall have an opportunity of replying to the charge and cross-examining the witnesses; and also to secure a uniform procedure in all cases. The amendment to section 14 of the principal Ordin- ance is based on section 355 of the Criminal Procedure Code (Ordinance No. 121) of the Straits Settlements. Provision is made for the obtaining, by an accused person, of copies of the depositions on which he has been charged, and for bail; and it is also provided, on the lines of section 20 (2) of the Coroners (Amendment) Act, 1926, that no person who has been charged on indictment may be charged with any offence of which he could have been convicted on the indictment.

-7661

7. Sections 16, 18 and 19 of the principal Ordinance, which deal with committal to the Supreme Court from a magistrate's inquiry, are repealed by sections 9, 10 and 11 of this Ordinance, and replaced by new sections 16 and 18, based on sections 320 and 321 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Straits Settlements, which provide that the Attorney General shall have powers in respect of inquiries similar to those vested in the High Court in England by section 6 of the Coroners Act, 1887 (50 and 51 Vict. c. 71).

8. Section 15 of the principal Ordinance is also repealed. by section 11 of this Ordinance, the procedure relating to burials under a magistrate's order, with which it deals, being regulated by section 14 of the Births and Deaths Registration Ordinance, No. 7 of 1896, and sections 90 and 91 of the Public Health and Buildings Ordinance, No. 1 of 1903.

9. Section 12 of this Ordinance adds a new form (No. 5) to the Schedule to the principal Ordinance in pursuance of the amendments mentioned in paragraph 6.

Standard Time (2200 and 0600 G.M.T.) are specially requested, and when in the vicinity of a typhoon it is hoped that observations will be sent as often as is found convenient. Continuous watch is kept at Cape d' Aguilar (VPS) on 600 and on 36.23 metres from 6 a.m. to midnight. The information primarily required is:-

1

Ship's position (Latitude and Longitude to of a degree)

Time of observation

Barometer reading (any unit)

Wind direction

Wind force

Weather

Iwhich may be sent in the form found most convenient, e.g. in plain language or by

nternational Code. The following data may be added if available:-

Air temperature

Temperature of sea surface

State of sea

Direction of swell, and Visibility.

5. Any reports forwarded should be distinguished by a suitable combination of the letters a, c, m, u, signifying whether the barometer is an aneroid (a) or mercurial (m), and whether the reading is corrected (c) or uncorrected (u); thus " would signify

mercurial, corrected". It is of great importance that readings of the ship's barometer made in Hong Kong should be forwarded by post or messenger whenever possible. The correction determined at the Royal Observatory from these readings will always be forwarded to the master upon request. A brief explanation of the International Code is appended. Extra copies of this notification may be obtained on written or personal application to the Director, Royal Observatory, who will at all times be pleased to give every possible information to any shipmaster or officer.

Amendment

of Ordin- ance No. 1 of 1888, s. 2.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Official Signatures Fees Ordinance,

1888.

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

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Official Signatures Fees Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Section 2 of the Official Signatures Fees Ordinance, 1888, is amended by the addition of the following paragraph at the end thereof:-

(11) for the signature of the Head of the Sanitary Department-$5.

Objects and Reasons.

The effect of the proposed amendment of the principal Ordinance is to add the Head of the Sanitary Department to the list of officials for whose signature a fee is charged.

Its purpose is not so much to obtain extra revenue as to discourage the frequent applications which are made to the Head of the Sanitary Department on no very adequate grounds for, e.g., the change of the name of a holder of a market lease or licence.

A BILL

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Betting Duty Ordinance, 1931.

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 Betting Duty Short title. Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Sub-section (1) of section 6 of the Betting Duty Amendment Ordinance, 1931, is repealed and the following sub-section of Ordinance substituted:-

(1) On every bet made on any totalisator or pari-mutuel authorised by this Ordinance there shall be charged a duty on a scale to be determined from time to time by a resolution of the Legislative Council.

No. 40 of 1931, s. 6.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The duty on pari-mutuel tickets was fixed by the Betting Duty Ordinance, 1931, at 3% of the face value of each such ticket sold. By the Betting Duty Amendment Ordinance, 1933, the duty was reduced to 2%.

For the year ending March 31st, 1934, the Hong Kong Jockey Club's accounts showed a loss of over $30,000. Their gross receipts from the sale of pari-mutuel tickets were $4,341,930 and the duty paid thereon was $108,548.

It is thought possible that in the current year the gross receipts from this source may fall below $4,000,000.

2. In these circumstances, at the request of the Jockey Club, it has been considered fair to introduce a sliding scale to govern the payment of this duty, but to introduce such a scale into the body of the principal Ordinance would be cumbersome, especially as it is not necessarily intended to be final. Hence the amendment proposed by this Bill leaves the scale to be fixed by resolution of the Legislature.

3. A copy of the resolution to be put to the Legislative Council so soon as this Bill becomes law is appended.

A BILL

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend further the Supreme Court Ordin-

ance, 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, 1934.

2. The proviso added by the Supreme Court Amendment Ordinance, 1929, to section 6 of the Supreme Court Ordin- ance, 1873, is repealed and the following is substituted therefor :-

Provided that the practice and procedure, howsoever established and regulated, with regard to exchequer and revenue proceedings and the practice with regard to writs of certiorari, habeas corpus and mandamus shall be the same as they were in England on the 31st day of December, 1930.

3. Sub-section (2) of section 9 of the Supreme Court Ordinance, 1873, as enacted by section 2 of the Supreme Court Amendment Ordinance, 1933, is repealed and the following sub-section is substituted therefor :-

(2) Every Chief Justice and every Puisne Judge shall, save when appointed by the Governor under the provisions of section 10 of this Ordinance or under the provisions of section 2 (4) of the Full Court Ordinance, 1933, be appointed by Letters Patent under the public seal by the Governor, in accordance with such instructions as he may receive through a Secretary of State, and shall hold his office during His Majesty's pleasure, subject to any conditions contained in any regulation made by or under the authority of His Majesty for His Majesty's Colonial Service.

4. Section 11 of the Supreme Court Ordinance, 1873, as enacted by section 2 of the Supreme Court Amendment Ordinance, 1933, is repealed and the following section is substituted therefor :---

11. No Chief Justice or Puisne Judge shall accept or perform any other office or place of profit or emolument not authorised by law: Provided that this section shall not apply to a Judge temporarily appointed under section 10.

687

of Ordin

5.-(1) Section 13 of the Supreme Court Ordinance, Amendment 1873, is amended by the insertion of the following as sub- section (2):

"(2) The powers and duties of the Registrar shall include such powers and duties as were on the 31st day of December, 1930, assigned to the King's Remembrancer in England, and the Registry of the Supreme Court shall be deemed to be the office or department of the King's Re- membrancer in the Colony."

(2) Sub-sections (2) and (3) of the same section 13 are renumbered (3) and (4) respectively.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The Crown Remedies Ordinance, 1875, the Crown Suits Ordinance, 1910, and sections 10 and 15 of the Estate Duty Ordinance, 1932, provide certain means whereby in Hong Kong the Crown can enforce its civil claims, but nowhere is any procedure laid down whereby a claim can even be instituted, much less enforced, against a person who is resident outside the jurisdiction. Such procedure is provided in England by sections 37 and 38 of the Crown Suits, etc., Act, 1886, (28 and 29 Vict. c. 104) and by other

enactments.

2. The necessity for giving the Crown the same. powers in Hong Kong as it has in England has recently been made abundantly clear by the refusal of certain persons. resident outside the jurisdiction, to answer a claim for a large amount of estate duty. The amended proviso to s. 6 of the Supreme Court Ordinance, 1873, by introducing in Hong Kong the same procedure on the revenue side as was in force in England in 1930 will make it possible for action to be taken against such persons.

3. Section 3 of this Ordinance substitutes for section 9 (2) of the principal Ordinance (as enacted by section 2 of Ordinance No. 12 of 1933) a revised sub-section in which the words "subject to any conditions contained in any regulation made by or under the authority of His Majesty for His Majesty's Colonial Service" are substituted for the words "subject to suspension by the Governor in like manner as other officers in the Colony.'

4. Section 4 of this Ordinance substitutes for section 11 of the principal Ordinance (as enacted by section 2 of Ordinance No. 12 of 1933) a revised section forbidding Chief Justices or Puisne Judges to accept or perform any other office or place of profit or emolument not authorised by law. The section, by virtue of the proviso, does not apply in the case of a judge who is temporarily appointed under section 10 of the principal Ordinance.

5. The latter two amendments are made at the request of the Secretary of State in his despatch of the 22nd February, 1934

6. The addition by Clause 5 of a new sub-section (2) to Section 13 of the principal Ordinance puts the Registrar of the Supreme Court in the position of the King's Re- membrancer in England for the purposes of proceedings on the revenue side.

2. The Merchant Shipping Ordinance, 1899 is amended by the substitution of the following paragraph for paragraph. (h) of section 2:--

(h) "The Merchant Shipping Acts" means the Merchant Shipping Acts, 1894 to 1932 and includes all regulations thereunder.

3. Section 10 of the Merchant Shipping Ordinance, 1899, as amended by the Merchant Shipping Amendment Ordinance 1932, is further amended by the addition of the following sub- section at the end thereof :--

(26) If any person-

(a) knowingly and wilfully makes, or assists in making, or procures to be made, a false or fraudulent declaration or certificate required by or under this Ordinance or the Merchant Shipping Acts; or

(b) forges, assists in forging, procures to be forged, frau- dulently alters, assists in fraudulently altering, or procures to be fraudulently altered, any such declaration or certificate, or anything contained in, or any signature to any such declaration or certificate;

that person shall in respect of each offence be guilty of a misdemeanour.

4. Section 14 of the Merchant Shipping Ordinance, 1899, as amended by the Merchant Shipping Amendment Ordinance, 1932, and the heading thereto are repealed and the following heading and section are substituted therefor :-

ment.

7. This Ordinance shall not come into operation unless Commence- and until the Governor notifies by Proclamation His Majesty's pleasure thereon; and thereafter it shall come into operation upon such day as the Governor shall notify by the same or any other Proclamation.

Objects and Reasons.

By section 264 of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1894, if the Legislature of a British possession, by any law, apply or adapt to any British ships registered at. trading with. or being at, any port in that possession, and to the owners, masters, and crews of those ships, any provisions of Part II

འ.

690

of the Act which would not otherwise so apply, such law shall have effect throughout His Majesty's dominions, and in all places where His Majesty has jurisdiction in the same manner as if it were enacted in the Act.

2. By section 735 of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1894, the Legislature of any British possession may by any Act or Ordinance, confirmed by His Majesty in Council, repeal, wholly or in part, any provisions of the Act (other than those in the Third Part thereof which relate to emigrant ships) relating to ships registered in that possession.

3. In exercise of these powers an Ordinance, now numbered as No. 10 of 1899, was passed by the Hong Kong Legislature and has been amended by Ordinances Nos. 5 and 11 of 1931 and by Ordinance, No. 23 of 1932.

4. The principal Ordinance (as published in the Ordi- nances of Hong Kong 1844-1923) comprises 46 sections and a Schedule of Tables. It cannot be compared with Ordinance No. 125 (Merchant Shipping) of the Straits Settlements which comprises 472 sections and several Schedules.

5. It deals, however, with certificates of registry, certifi- cates of competency, the engagement and discharge of sea- men, boarding houses for seamen, distressed seamen, health and accommodation, discipline, surveys, general equipment, life saving appliances, deck and load lines, dangerous goods and explosives, grain cargeos, unseaworthy and unsafe ships, marine courts, courts of survey, ports of the Colony, duties of masters, quarantine, fairways, safety of ships and preven- tion of accidents, removal of obstructions, moorings and buoys, fishing stations, police powers, light-houses, lights and beacons, launches, motor-boats, river steamers, junks and native craft, offences and prosecution thereof, regulations and fees.

6. By section 41 of the principal Ordinance such of the provisions of the Merchant Shipping Acts as apply to the Colony and are not inconsistent with the provisions of the Ordinance are repealed so far as they relate to ships registered in the Colony; but in all other respects the provisions of the said Acts are expressed to be in force in the Colony and extend to all ships registered in the Colony when such ships are within the waters of the Colony. By sub-section 2 (b) fines not ex- ceeding one thousand dollars are substituted for fines punish- able under the Acts not exceeding one hundred pounds.

7. Apparently the provisions of the Acts repealed by the section and the application to the Colony and ships registered therein of the remaining provisions relate only to the Acts which were in force on the 19th September, 1903, when the principal Ordinance came into operation.

8. On the 31st May, 1929, an International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea and, on the 5th July, 1930, an International Load Line Convention were signed in London. To give effect to them, the Merchant Shipping (Safety and Load Line Conventions) Act, 1932, was passed on the 17th March. 1932, which was brought into full operation on the

691

1st January, 1933, by an Order of His Majesty in Council under sections 39 and 67 dated the 10th November, 1932, published in the London Gazette of the 15th November, 1932.

9. In 1931 the Governments of Ceylon, Hong Kong, India, the Netherlands, the Netherlands East Indies, and the Straits Settlements, being satisfied that it would be impractic- able to enforce compliance with the requirements of Chapters II and III of the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea, 1929, in the case of passenger ships engaged in the carriage of large numbers of unberthed Mohammadan pilgrims and other unberthed passengers to or from their coun- tries and desiring to formulate general rules concerning Con- struction, Life Saving Appliances, etc., applicable to the particular circumstances of these trades in accordance with Article 4, paragraph 6 (b), and Article 12, paragraph 5 (d), of the said Convention, appointed delegates, who formulated the Simla Rules, 1931.

10. The Merchant Shipping (Safety and Load Line Conventions) Act, 1932, amends the Merchant Shipping Acts, 1894 to 1928, and will be construed as one with them under the general title of the Merchant Shipping Acts, 1894 to 1932.

11. Part I of the Act of 1932, deals with Safety at Sea and by section 36 His Majesty may by Order in Council direct that the provisions of Part I of the Act and (so far as may appear expedient for the purpose of giving effect to the pro- visions of that Part) the provisions of any other Act relating to Merchant Shipping, shall extend (inter alia) to any Colony, with such exceptions, adaptations or modifications (if any) Orders in Council under as may be specified in the Order. this section may direct that any provision of Part I of the Act, which is expressed to apply only to British ships or passenger steamers registered in the United Kingdom, shall apply to British ships or passenger steamers, as the case may be, re- gistered in any country or part of His Majesty's dominions to which the provisions of Part I can be extended. These Orders in Council may also direct that any reference in Part I of the Act to a port in the United Kingdom shall be con- strued as including a reference to a port in any such country or part of His Majesty's dominions.

12. Part II of the Act of 1932, deals with Load Line and Loading and by section 64 His Majesty may by Order in Council direct that the provisions of Part II of the Act, in- cluding any enactments for the time being in force amending or substituted for the said provisions, shall extend (inter alia) to any Colony, with such exceptions. adaptations or modifica- tions (if any) as may be specified in the Order. Orders in Council under this section may direct that any provision of Part II of the Act which is expressed to apply only to British ships registered in the United Kingdom shall apply to British ships registered in any country or part of His Majesty's dominions to which the provisions of Part II can be extended. These Orders in Council may also direct that any reference to Part II of the Act to a port in the United Kingdom shall be construed as including a reference to a port in any such coun- try or part of His Majesty's dominions.

692

13. Part III of the Act of 1932 is general and comple- mentary to the provisions of both Parts I and II. It will be extended therefore to the Colony by Order of His Majesty in Council.

14. The extension of the provisions of the Act of 1932, to the Colony of Hong Kong by Order in Council will neces- sitate many of the exceptions, adaptations and modifications, referred to in sections 36 and 64 and possibly also the repeal or amendment of some of the provisions of the local Ordinances.

15. It is understood that Part II of the Act, dealing with Load Line and Loading, will be extended to the Colony before Part I, dealing with Safety of Life at Sea, is so extended. This Amending Bill has been prepared with a view to indicating the amendments in the principal Ordinance which are considered necessary when Part II of the Act is extended to the Colony by Order in Council under section 64.

16. When Part I of the Act is extended to the Colony by Order in Council under section 36 it will probably be necessary to repeal or amend other provisions in Parts III and IV of Ordinance No. 10 of 1899 as well as Table A in the Schedule to that Ordinance.

Magistrate.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 2 of this Ordinance inserts a new section 2 in the principal Ordinance empowering the Governor in Council to make rules, similar to the power exercised in England by the Lord Chancellor with the concurrence of the Secretary of State under section 26 of the Coroners (Amendment) Act, 1926 (16 and 17 Geo. 5 c. 30), on which the section is based.

2. Section 3 of this Ordinance makes a verbal amendment in section 4 of the principal Ordinance, rendered necessary by the appointment of more than two magistrates.

3. Section 5 of this Ordinance substitutes for section 8 of the principal Ordinance a new section, of which sub-section (1), based on section 5 of the Capital Punishment Amendment Act, 1868 (31 & 32 Vict. c. 24), relates to inquiries on the bodies of prisoners who have suffered capital punishment, and sub-section (2), founded on section 3 of the Coroners Act, 1887 (50 & 51 Vict. c. 71), to deaths in prison. Old section 8. which applied to both classes of inquiry, required an inquiry to be held within 24 hours of the death (or 48 hours if a Sun- day intervened), but as it has been found impracticable to summon a jury within this period for all inquiries into deaths in prison, the provision has, as in England, been restricted in new section 8 to inquiries on the bodies of executed offenders.

Sub-section (3) of new section 8 removes a doubt as to whether a "view" is required in inquiries under sub-sections (1) and (2) of that section.

In ordinary death inquiries under section 7 of the principal Ordinance it is left to the discretion of the magistrate whether or not there shall be a view of the body.

Old section 8 originally required a view of the body in the cases to which it applied; but section 30 of the Schedule to the Law Revision Ordinance, No. 5 of 1924, authorised the dele- tion of the words "view the hodu and"

714

It is open to question whether this alteration by a Revision Ordinance had the effect of abolishing the view in cases under old section 8; especially as section 4 imposes on magistrates the duties which a Coroner had by law at the commencement of the Ordinance, one of those duties being a view of the body (Rex v. Haslewood 1926 II K.B. 468).

In the Straits Settlements by section 326 (2) of Ordinance No. 121 provision is made for a view of the body where it appears to the greater number of the jury to be expedient. In England by section 14 of the Coroners (Amendment) Act, 1926, a view by the Coroner is still necessary and by the jury also if a majority so desires.

In the circumstances it is considered desirable to add, in sub-section (3) of new section 8, words which will make it clear that at inquiries under the section the magistrate shall view the body but that a view by the jury shall not be necessary unless it appears to the magistrate or to the greater number of the jurors expedient for the jury to do so.

4. Section 6 of this Ordinance adds a new sub-section (3) to section 12 of the principal Ordinance requiring a magistrate who holds an inquiry without a jury to record his finding in the same way as he records the finding of the jury under sub-section (1) of that section.

5. Section 7 of this Ordinance adds to section 13 of the principal Ordinance three new sub-sections of which sub- sections (2) and (3), based on section 20 (1) and (3) of the Coroners (Amendment) Act, 1926, provide for the adjourn- ment of an inquiry in cases where a person has been charged before a magistrate with causing the death of the person whose death is the subject of the inquiry, and regulate the procedure in cases where such inquiry is re-opened after the jury has been discharged.

New sub-section (4) provides for the continuity of pro- ceedings at an adjourned inquiry held by a magistrate alone or with the same jury as at the original inquiry.

6. Under section 14 of the principal Ordinance any person against whom, at an inquiry, evidence of an offence has been disclosed may be prosecuted according to the ordinary pro- cedure before magistrates or, at the discretion of the magistrate holding the inquiry, committed for trial at the Supreme Court. Section 8 of this Ordinance abolishes this discretion, and makes prosecution before a magistrate necessary in all cases before trial.

The object of sections 7 and 8 of this Ordinance is to ensure that every accused person shall be charged as soon as possible with the offence of which he is accused, and shall have an opportunity of replying to the charge and cross-examining the witnesses; and also to secure a uniform procedure in all cases. The amendment to section 14 of the principal Ordin- ance is based on section 355 of the Criminal Procedure Code (Ordinance No. 121) of the Straits Settlements. Provision is made for the obtaining, by an accused person, of copies of the depositions on which he has been charged, and for bail; and it is also provided, on the lines of section 20 (2) of the Coroners (Amendment) Act, 1926, that no person who has been charged on indictment may be charged with any offence of which he could have been convicted on the indictment.

715

7. Sections 16, 18 and 19 of the principal Ordinance, which deal with committal to the Supreme Court from a magistrate's inquiry, are repealed by sections 9, 10 and 11 of this Ordinance, and replaced by new sections 16 and 18, based on sections 320 and 321 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Straits Settlements, which provide that the Attorney General shall have powers in respect of inquiries similar to those vested in the High Court in England by section 6 of the Coroners Act, 1887 (50 and 51 Vict. c. 71).

8. Section 15 of the principal Ordinance is also repealed by section 11 of this Ordinance, the procedure relating to burials under a magistrate's order, with which it deals, being regulated by section 14 of the Births and Deaths Registration Ordinance, No. 7 of 1896, and sections 90 and 91 of the Public Health and Buildings Ordinance, No. 1 of 1903.

9. Section 12 of this Ordinance adds a new form (No. 5) to the Schedule to the principal Ordinance in pursuance of the amendments mentioned in paragraph 6.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Jury Ordinance, 1887.

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 Jury Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Sections 13 and 14 of the Jury Ordinance, 1887, are repealed and the following sections are substituted :-

13.-(1) In forming any panel, the Registrar shall pass over the names of all persons drawn who are dead or absent from the Colony, but shall return to the ballot box the names of any temporary absentees.

(2) In forming a panel under section 9 of the Coroner's Abolition Ordinance, 1888, the Registrar may also pass over and return to the ballot box the names of any persons drawn, if, in his opinion, such persons cannot conveniently. be served in sufficient time to secure their attendance as jurors at the inquiry.

14. The Registrar shall issue summonses, according to the form in the Schedule, which shall be served on the persons drawn either personally or by leaving the same at their respec- tive residences or places of business; provided that where per- sonal service is not effected the summons shall be left not less than two clear days before the day appointed for the sitting of the court.

3. Section 23 of the Jury Ordinance, 1887, is amended by the substitution of the words "Registrar or clerk of the court, who" for the words "Registrar; and the Registrar" in the fifth line.

1

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 2 of this Ordinance repeals sections 13 and 14 of the principal Ordinance and re-enacts them with modific- ations.

717

2. Section 13 permitted the Registrar of the Supreme Court, in forming any jury panel, to pass over the names of persons drawn who could not be served with summonses by reason of death or absence from the Colony. The substituted section 13 permits him in forming a panel under section 9 of the Coroner's Abolition Ordinance, 1888, to pass over also the names of persons drawn who in his opinion cannot convenient- ly be served in sufficient time to secure their attendance as jurors. Death inquiries under section 8 of the latter Ordin- ance have to be held at very short notice.

3. Section 14 of the Jury Ordinance, 1887, required that jurors' summonses should be either served personally or left at the usual place of abode of the persons drawn two clear days before the day appointed for the sitting of the court.

4. The provision requiring two clear days notice is im- practicable in cases under section 8 of the Coroner's Abolition Ordinance, 1888, and unnecessary where personal service is effected. Moreover with the expansion of residential districts. on both sides of the harbour it has become increasingly difficult to effect service at the residential addresses (c.f. definition of "Abode" in Stroud's Judicial Dictionary Vol. 3 p. 1489) of the persons drawn. For many years it has been the practice to serve the summonses by leaving at the jurors' places of business. instead of at their residences.

5. The substituted section 14 requires two days notice. only in those cases where personal service is not effected and regularises the practice of leaving the summonses at the places of business of the jurors concerned.

6. Section 3 amends section 23 of the Jury Ordinance, 1887, by allowing the clerk of the court to act as the officer of the court who takes and records verdicts. It is impractic- able for the Registrar to be present in court on all occasions when verdicts are given, and the amendment regularises a practice which has prevailed for many years.

A BILL

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Official Signatures Fees Ordinance,

1888.

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 Official Signatures Fees Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Section 2 of the Official Signatures Fees Ordinance, 1888, is amended by the addition of the following paragraph of 1888, s. 2. at the end thereof :--

ance No. 1

(11) for the signature of the Head of the Sanitary Department-$5.

Objects and Reasons.

The effect of the proposed amendment of the principal Ordinance is to add the Head of the Sanitary Department to the list of officials for whose signature a fee is charged.

Its purpose is not so much to obtain extra revenue as to discourage the frequent applications which are made to the Head of the Sanitary Department on no very adequate grounds for, e.g., the change of the name of a holder of a market lease or licence.

(1) Such of the provisions of the Merchant Shipping Acts as apply to this Colony and are inconsistent with the pro- visions of this Ordinance are hereby repealed so far as they relate to ships registered in this Colony: But in all other respects the provisions of the said Acts shall be deemed to be in force in the Colony of Hong Kong, so far as they are applicable thereto, and to extend, so far as they can be ex- tended, to all ships registered in the Colony and to the owners, masters and crews of such ships: Provided, however, that the provisions of the Merchant Shipping (Safety and Load Line Conventions) Act, 1932, shall extend to the Colony and to ships registered therein and their owners, masters and crews only when, and to the extent that they may be, extended to the Colony by Orders of His Majesty in Council under section 36 or 64 thereof.

(2) Where by or under any of the said Acts functions are required to be performed by the Governor, such functions may be performed by the Governor or by any public officer nominated for the purpose by him.

(3) Any misdemeanor or other offence under any of the said Acts or under this Ordinance may be prosecuted, heard and determined summarily by any magistrate in accordance with the provisions of the Magistrates Ordinance, 1932: Provided that any fines expressed in terms of English cur- rency that may be imposed shall be paid in local currency calculated at the day's opening demand rate of exchange on London published in the Colony by the Hong Kong and Shang- hai Banking Corporation.

6. Paragraph (a) of Section 17 (5) of the Merchant ance No. 10 Shipping Ordinance, 1899, as enacted by section 10 of the Merchant Shipping Amendment Ordinance, 1932, is repealed and the following paragraph is substituted therefor :-

of 1899,

s. 17 (5) (a).

Commence- ment.

(a) The Harbour Master or any Government ship surveyor or engineer surveyor if he has reason to believe, on complaint or otherwise, that a British ship is unsafe, may order the pro- visional detention of such ship for a period not exceeding twenty-four hours, and subject to the further provisions of this section, the Governor may by order extend such period either indefinitely or for such definite period as he may deem fit.

7. This Ordinance shall not come into operation unless and until the Governor notifies by Proclamation His Majesty's pleasure thereon; and thereafter it shall come into operation. upon such day as the Governor shall notify by the same or any other Proclamation.

Objects and Reasons.

1. By section 264 of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1894, if the Legislature of a British possession, by any law, apply or adapt to any British ships registered at. trading with. or being at, any port in that possession, and to the owners, masters, and crews of those ships, any provisions of Part II

721

of the Act which would not otherwise so apply, such law shall have effect throughout His Majesty's dominions, and in all places where His Majesty has jurisdiction in the same manner as if it were enacted in the Act.

2. By section 735 of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1894, the Legislature of any British possession may by any Act or Ordinance, confirmed by His Majesty in Council, repeal, wholly or in part, any provisions of the Act (other than those in the Third Part thereof which relate to emigrant ships) relating to ships registered in that possession

3. In exercise of these powers an Ordinance, now numbered as No. 10 of 1899, was passed by the Hong Kong Legislature and has been amended by Ordinances Nos. 5 and 11 of 1931 and by Ordinance, No. 23 of 1932.

4. The principal Ordinance (as published in the Ordi- nances of Hong Kong 1844-1923) comprises 46 sections and a Schedule of Tables. It cannot be compared with Ordinance No. 125 (Merchant Shipping) of the Straits Settlements which comprises 472 sections and several Schedules.

5. It deals, however, with certificates of registry, certifi- cates of competency, the engagement and discharge of sea- men, boarding houses for seamen, distressed seamen, health and accommodation, discipline, surveys, general equipment, life saving appliances, deck and load lines, dangerous goods: and explosives, grain cargoes, unseaworthy and unsafe ships, marine courts, courts of survey, ports of the Colony, duties of masters, quarantine, fairways, safety of ships and preven- tion of accidents, removal of obstructions, moorings and buoys, fishing stations, police powers, light-houses, lights and beacons, launches, motor-boats, river steamers, junks and native craft, offences and prosecution thereof, regulations and fees.

6. By section 41 of the principal Ordinance such of the provisions of the Merchant Shipping Acts as apply to the Colony and are not inconsistent with the provisions of the Ordinance are repealed so far as they relate to ships registered in the Colony; but in all other respects the provisions of the said Acts are expressed to be in force in the Colony and extend to all ships registered in the Colony when such ships are within the waters of the Colony. By sub-section 2 (b) fines not ex- ceeding one thousand dollars are substituted for fines punish- able under the Acts not exceeding one hundred pounds.

7. Apparently the provisions of the Acts repealed by the section and the application to the Colony and ships registered therein of the remaining provisions relate only to the Acts. which were in force on the 19th September, 1903, when the principal Ordinance came into operation.

8. On the 31st May, 1929, an International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea and, on the 5th July, 1930, an International Load Line Convention were signed in London. To give effect to them, the Merchant Shipping (Safety and Load Line Conventions) Act, 1932, was passed on the 17th March. 1932, which was brought into full operation on the

722

1st January, 1933, by an Order of His Majesty in Council under sections 39 and 67 dated the 10th November, 1932, published in the London Gazette of the 15th November, 1932.

9. In 1931 the Governments of Ceylon, Hong Kong, India, the Netherlands, the Netherlands East Indies, and the Straits Settlements, being satisfied that it would be impractic- able to enforce compliance with the requirements of Chapters II and III of the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea, 1929, in the case of passenger ships engaged in the carriage of large numbers of unberthed Mohammadan pilgrims and other unberthed passengers to or from their coun- tries and desiring to formulate general rules concerning Con- struction, Life Saving Appliances, etc., applicable to the particular circumstances of these trades in accordance with Article 4, paragraph 6 (b), and Article 12, paragraph 5 (d), of the said Convention, appointed delegates, who formulated the Simla Rules, 1931.

10. The Merchant Shipping (Safety and Load Line Conventions) Act, 1932, amends the Merchant Shipping Acts, 1894 to 1928, and will be construed as one with them under the general title of the Merchant Shipping Acts, 1894 to 1932.

11. Part I of the Act of 1932, deals with Safety at Sea and by section 36 His Majesty may by Order in Council direct that the provisions of Part I of the Act and (so far as may appear expedient for the purpose of giving effect to the pro- visions of that Part) the provisions of any other Act relating to Merchant Shipping, shall extend (inter alia) to any Colony, with such exceptions, adaptations or modifications (if any) as may be specified in the Order. Orders in Council under this section may direct that any provision of Part I of the Act, which is expressed to apply only to British ships or passenger steamers registered in the United Kingdom, shall apply to British ships or passenger steamers, as the case may be, re- gistered in any country or part of His Majesty's dominions. to which the provisions of Part I can be extended. These Orders in Council may also direct that any reference in Part I of the Act to a port in the United Kingdom shall be con- strued as including a reference to a port in any such country or part of His Majesty's dominions.

12. Part II of the Act of 1932, deals with Load Line and Loading and by section 64 His Majesty may by Order in Council direct that the provisions of Part II of the Act, in- cluding any enactments for the time being in force amending or substituted for the said provisions, shall extend (inter alia) to any Colony, with such exceptions. adaptations or modifica- tions (if any) as may be specified in the Order. Orders in Council under this section may direct that any provision of Part II of the Act which is expressed to apply only to British ships registered in the United Kingdom shall apply to British ships registered in any country or part of His Majesty's dominions to which the provisions of Part II can be extended. These Orders in Council may also direct that any reference to Part II of the Act to a port in the United Kingdom shall be construed as including a reference to a port in any such coun- try or part of His Majesty's dominions.

723

13. Part III of the Act of 1932 is general and comple- mentary to the provisions of both Parts I and II. It will be extended therefore to the Colony by Order of His Majesty in Council.

14. The extension of the provisions of the Act of 1932, to the Colony of Hong Kong by Order in Council will neces- sitate many of the exceptions, adaptations and modifications, referred to in sections 36 and 64 and possibly also the repeal or amendment of some of the provisions of the local Ordinances.

15. It is understood that Part II of the Act, dealing with Load Line and Loading, will be extended to the Colony before Part I, dealing with Safety of Life at Sea, is so extended. This Amending Bill has been prepared with a view to indicating the amendments in the principal Ordinance which are considered necessary when Part II of the Act is extended to the Colony by Order in Council under section 64.

16. When Part I of the Act is extended to the Colony by -Order in Council under section 36 it will probably be necessary to repeal or amend other provisions in Parts III and IV of Ordinance No. 10 of 1899 as well as Table A in the Schedule to that Ordinance.

(C.S.O. 3215/30C).

A BILL

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Betting Duty Ordinance, 1931.

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 Betting Duty Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Sub-section (1) of section 6 of the Betting Duty of Ordinance Ordinance, 1931, is repealed and the following sub-section

substituted :-

No. 40 of

1931, s. 6.

(1) În every bet made on any totalisator or pari-mutuel authorised by this Ordinance there shall be charged a duty on a scale to be determined from time to time by a resolution. of the Legislative Council.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The duty on pari-mutuel tickets was fixed by the Betting Duty Ordinance, 1931, at 3% of the face value of each such ticket sold. By the Betting Duty Amendment Ordinance, 1933, the duty was reduced to 21% as from 1st September, 1933.

For the year ending March 31st, 1934, the Hong Kong Jockey Club's accounts showed a loss of over $30,000. Their gross receipts from the sale of pari-mutuel tickets were $4,341,930 and the duty paid thereon was $116,848.

It is thought possible that in the year ending 31st March next, the gross receipts from this source may fall below $4,000,000.

2. In these circumstances, at the request of the Jockey Club, it has been considered fair to introduce a sliding scale to govern the payment of this duty, but to introduce such a scale into the body of the principal Ordinance would be cumbersome, especially as it is not necessarily intended to be final. Hence the amendment proposed by this Bill leaves the scale to be fixed by resolution of the Legislature.

3. A copy of the resolution to be put to the Legislative- Council so soon as this Bill becomes law is appended.

Amendment

of Ordin-

ance No. 3

of 1873, s. 13

726

5.-(1) Section 13 of the Supreme Court Ordinance, 1873, is amended by the insertion of the following as sub- section (2):

(2) The powers and duties of the Registrar shall include such powers and duties as were on the 31st day of December, 1930, assigned to the King's Remembrancer in England, and the Registry of the Supreme Court shall be deemed to be the office or department of the King's Re- membrancer in the Colony.'

(2) Sub-sections (2) and (3) of the same section 13 are renumbered (3) and (4) respectively.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The Crown Remedies Ordinance, 1875, the Crown Suits Ordinance, 1910, and sections 10 and 15 of the Estate Duty Ordinance, 1932, provide certain means whereby in Hong Kong the Crown can enforce its civil claims, but nowhere is any procedure laid down whereby a claim can even be instituted, much less enforced, against a person who is resident outside the jurisdiction. Such procedure is provided in England by sections 37 and 38 of the Crown Suits, etc., Act, 1886, (28 and 29 Vict. c. 104) and by other

enactments.

2. The necessity for giving the Crown the same powers in Hong Kong as it has in England has recently been made abundantly clear by the refusal of certain persons. resident outside the jurisdiction, to answer a claim for a large amount of estate duty. The amended proviso to s. 6 of the Supreme Court Ordinance, 1873, by introducing in Hong Kong the same procedure on the revenue side as was in force in England in 1930 will make it possible for action. to be taken against such persons.

3. Section 3 of this Ordinance substitutes for section 9 (2) of the principal Ordinance (as enacted by section 2 of Ordinance No. 12 of 1933) a revised sub-section in which the words "subject to any conditions contained in any regulation made by or under the authority of His Majesty for His Majesty's Colonial Service" are substituted for the words "subject to suspension by the Governor in like manner as other officers in the Colony.'

,,

4. Section 4 of this Ordinance substitutes for section 11 of the principal Ordinance (as enacted by section 2 of Ordinance No. 12 of 1933) a revised section forbidding Chief Justices or Puisne Judges to

      to accept or perform any other office or place of profit or emolument not authorised by law. The section, by virtue of the proviso, does not apply in the case of a judge who is temporarily appointed under section 10 of the principal Ordinance.

5. The latter two amendments are made at the requesi of the Secretary of State in his despatch of the 22nd February, 1934

6. The addition by Clause 5 of a new sub-section (2) to Section 13 of the principal Ordinance puts the Registrar of the Supreme Court in the position of the King's Re- membrancer in England for the purposes of proceedings on the revenue side.

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

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Printers and Publishers Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Sub-section (1) of section 3 of the Printers and Publishers Ordinance, 1927, is repealed and the following sub-section is substituted thereof :---

(1) It shall be lawful for the Governor in Council to make regulations----

(a) for the registration of newpapers and their pro- prietors, printers, publishers and editors:

(b) for the registration, sale, purchase, removal, use, control and licensing of printing presses;

(c) for granting exemptions;

(d) for prescribing fees;

(e) for prescribing forms either in addition to substitution for the forms in the Schedule.

Objects and Reasons.

or in

1. By section 3 (1) of the principal Ordinance it is lawful for the Governor in Council to make such regulations as he may think fit with reference to the regulation of newspapers and their proprietors, printers, publishers and editors, and with reference to the keeping and use of printing presses, and to prescribe fees.

2. This Ordinance substitutes à sub-section which makes it clear that the regulations as to keeping and use of printing presses may deal with the licensing thereof as well as with their registration, purchase, sale or removal.

3. As the definition of "printing press" in section 2 (f) of the principal Ordinance is, purposely, widely framed, the new section 3 (1) provides for granting exemptions.

4. The new section 3 (1) also enables the Governor in Council to prescribe forms either in addition to or in substitution for the forms in the Schedule to the principal Ordinance.

5. The provisions of section 5 of the principal Ordinance as to the licensing of printing presses are not altered by this Ordinance.

A BILL

[No. 22:-10.7.34.-3.]

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend further the Dangerous Goods

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 Dangerous Goods Short title. Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

of Ordin- ance No. 1

2. Section 2 of the Dangerous Goods Ordinance, 1873, Amendment is amended by the deletion of the words "an order of" in the fourth line of paragraph (b) thereof.

of 1873, s. 2.

3. Sub-section (1) of section 5 of the said Ordinance is Amendment amended by the insertion of the following paragraph immediately after paragraph (f) thereof :-

(ff) for prescribing the labels to be attached or affixed to dangerous goods or other methods of marking such goods;

of Ordin- ance No. 1 of 1873, s. 5.

4. Section 9 of the said Ordinance is repealed and the Substitution following section substituted:

9.--(1) Where any dangerous goods-

for Ordin- ance No. 1 of 1873, s. 9.

Label on container of dangerous

(a) are sent or conveyed by land or water between any god. two places in the Colony; or

) are sold or exposed for sale;

the drum, tin, case or other package containing them shall have attached thereto the label, if any, prescribed by the Governor in Council under this Ordinance in respect of such goods.

(2) All dangerous goods which are sent, conveyed, sold or exposed for sale in contravention of this section shall, together with the drum, tin, case or other package containing the same, be forfeited, and, in addition, the person sending, conveying, selling or exposing for sale the same shall be liable to a fine not exceeding twenty-five dollars.

5. Sub-sections (1) and (5) of section 10 of the said Substitution Ordinance are repealed and the following sub-sections are sub- for Ordin- stituted therefor :-

ance No. 1

of 1873, ss. 10 (1)

(1) Save in respect of dangerous goods carried as cargo and 10 (5). in ships to which section 8 applies, and save as hereinafter, mentioned or as may be provided by regulations made under section 5, no person shall have in his possession, custody or

744

control, or in the possession, custody or control of any servant, agent, or warehouse owner, any dangerous goods except in pursuance of licence granted by the Inspector General of Police.

(5) If any person has dangerous goods in his possession, custody or control, or in the possession, custody or control of any servant, agent or warehouse owner, in contravention of this section, such dangerous goods shall, together with the drums, tins, cases or other packages containing the same, be liable to forfeiture, and in addition such person shall be liable to imprisonment for any term not exceeding six months and to a fine not exceeding two hundred and fifty dollars, and further such person shall also be liable to a fine not exceeding one hundred dollars a day for each day after the first day during which such goods are proved to have been in his possession, custody or power or in the possession on his behalf of any servant, agent or warehouse owner.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The amendments to be enacted by this Ordinance are necessitated in the main by the recent drafting of a new and complete code of "dangerous goods" regulations to which the Chamber of Commerce has agreed and which are to be made by the Governor in Council under section 5 of the principal Ordinance.

2. Clause 2 omits as redundant the words "an order of" from section 2 of the principal Ordinance. It is quite sufficient to require no more than a declaration by the Governor in Council to make any goods "dangerous".

Cf. the amendment to section 40 (2) of the Interpretation Ordinance, 1911, effected by the Interpretation Amendment Ordinance, 1927.

3. Clause 3 adds to section 5 (1) a new paragraph (ff) empowering the Governor in Council to make regulations for the labelling or marking by other means of dangerous goods. Such labelling is a feature of the new regulations.

4. Clause 4 substitutes a new section for section 9, since some of the old provisions will be no longer necessary when the new regulations come into force.

5. By clause 5 sub-sections (1) and (5) of section 10 have been redrafted.

The effect of the additional words added at the beginning of sub-section (1) is to exempt the masters of ships that enter the harbour carrying dangerous goods from the licensing pro- visions of this section.

In both sub-sections the words "or warehouse owner" have been inserted after "servant or agent' in order to make it quite clear that the owner of dangerous goods who deposits them in another's godown is not thereby relieved from personal liability to take out a licence in respect of such goods.

One or two slight alterations of wording have also been made.

A BILL

INTITULED

[No. 26-20.7.34.-1.]

An Ordinance to amend the Printers and Publishers Ordin-

ance, 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, 1934.

2. Sub-section (1) of section 3 of the Printers and Publishers Ordinance, 1927, is repealed and the following sub-section is substituted thereof:-

(1) It shall be lawful for the Governor in Council to make regulations-

(a) for the registration of newpapers and their pro- prietors, printers, publishers and editors:

(b) for the registration, sale, purchase, removal, use, control and licensing of printing presses;

(c) for granting exemptions;

(d) for prescribing fees;

for prescribing forms either in addition to or in substitution for the forms in the Schedule.

Objects and Reasons.

1. By section 3 (1) of the principal Ordinance it is lawful for the Governor in Council to make such regulations as he may think fit with reference to the regulation of newspapers and their proprietors, printers, publishers and editors, and with reference to the keeping and use of printing presses, and to prescribe fees.

2. This Ordinance substitutes a sub-section which makes it clear that the regulations as to keeping and use of printing presses may deal with the licensing thereof as well as with their registration, purchase, sale or removal.

3. As the definition of "printing press" in section 2 (f) of the principal Ordinance is, purposely, widely framed, the new section 3 (1) provides for granting exemptions.

4. The new section 3 (1) also enables the Governor in Council to prescribe forms either in addition to or in substitution for the forms in the Schedule to the principal Ordinance.

5. The provisions of section 5 of the principal Ordinance as to the licensing of printing presses are not altered by this Ordinance.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to make provision for financing and carrying out a scheme for a new Government House and for the development of a portion of the City of Victoria.

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 Government. House and City Development Scheme Ordinance, 1934

2.-(1) It shall be lawful for the Governor to under- take the following works:-

(a) the preparation, development and carrying out of a scheme, to be known as the "Government House and City Development Scheme", in general accordance with a plan dated the seventh day of August, 1934, signed by the Director of Public Works and deposited in the Land Office; and

or

(b) all accessory works which may be necessary desirable for or on account of the preparation, development and carrying out of the said Scheme and the adaptation of the adjoining areas and approaches.

(2) Any work undertaken before the commencement of this Ordinance, which either was, in the opinion of the Governor, undertaken in contemplation of the said Scheme, or is hereafter adopted by the Governor and made use of for the said Scheme, is hereby legalized and validated for all purposes as if it had been undertaken under this Ordinance.

(3) The powers conferred by this Ordinance shall be in addition to, and not in derogation of, any other powers possessed by the Governor, or the Governor in Council, or any public officer.

3.-(1) The Governor shall decide from what sources the materials required in carrying out the said Scheme are to be obtained, and shall have full control over the execution of the works and over all persons employed in connexion therewith; and he may appoint such persons as he may think fit to execute such works, and may determine the remunera- tion and conditions of employment of such persons.

769

(2) In carrying out the said scheme it shall be lawful for the Governor to authorise such alteration, amendment or revision of the plan referred to in section 2 (1) (a) as he may consider desirable, and to make the consequential deviations from the said plan.

(3) It shall be lawful for the Governor to suspend, abandon or terminate the scheme at any point at which he considers it advisable so to do.

Scheme.

4. (1) The expenditure required for preparing, Defraying developing and carrying out the said Scheme shall be cost of the authorised and appropriated from time to time by Resolutions of the Legislative Council, subject to the approval of the Secretary of State, and shall be defrayed from a Fund, to be established and kept at the Treasury, into which shall be paid all sums which have been or may be received by the Government in respect of the sale of the City Hall and Beaconsfield Arcade sites as well as all sums to be received from land sales in connexion with the Scheme.

Should the Fund at any time be insufficient for carrying out the Scheme or any portion thereof, advances or appropriations from the general revenues of the Colony shall be authorised by Resolutions of the Legislative Council, subject to the approval of the Secretary of State, in order to make good the deficiency.

(3) When the said Scheme is completed or is abandoned or otherwise terminated, any balance there may be standing to the credit of the Fund shall be appropriated by the Treasurer to the general revenue of the Colony under the heading or classification of Land Sales.

Governor's

5. A certificate under the hand of the Colonial Secretary Evidence of shall be conclusive evidence for all purposes whatsoever of decision or any decision or opinion of the Governor under this Ordinance opinion. and of the terms and effect of any such decision or opinion.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The Government House and City Development Scheme authorised by this Ordinance is essentially a self- contained unit which will be proceeded with as circumstances permit.

2. The Scheme involves the sale from time to time of building sites which it is anticipated will yield more than sufficient to pay for the entire undertaking, though it may be necessary at certain stages to obtain advances from the revenues of the Colony.

3. To pay into the general revenue of the Colony the large sums which have been or will be received from time to time in connexion with such land sales would result in apparent fluctuations in the normal revenue of the Colony

4. As, however, the proposal that revenue receipts from such land sales should pass into a special Fund, instead of to revenue, and that the expenditure on the Scheme should be met from the Fund and authorised by Resolutions of the Legislative Council involves a departure from the ordinary rules of Colonial Accounting, the Secretary of State, in approving the proposal, has required that the Scheme should be conducted under a special Ordinance which would legalise the diversion of the revenue from land sales from general revenue to the Fund and would also empower the appro- priation of the expenditure on the Scheme by Resolutions of the Legislative Council.

A BILL

INTITULED

An Ordinance to make provision for financing and carrying out a scheme for a new, Government House and for the development of a portion of the City, of Victoria.

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 Government House and City Development Scheme Ordinance, 1934.

2.-(1) It shall be lawful for the Governor to under- take the following works:--

(a) the preparation, development and carrying out of a scheme, to be known as the "Government House and City Development Scheme", in general accordance with a plan dated the seventh day of August, 1934, signed by the Director of Public Works and deposited in the Land Office; and (b) all accessory works which may be necessary desirable for or on account of the preparation, development and carrying out of the said Scheme and the adaptation of the adjoining areas and approaches.

or

(2) Any work undertaken before the commencement of this Ordinance, which either was, in the opinion of the Governor, undertaken in contemplation of the said Scheme, or is hereafter adopted by the Governor and made use of for the said Scheme, is hereby legalized and validated for all purposes as if it had been undertaken under this Ordinance.

(3) The powers conferred by this Ordinance shall be in addition to, and not in derogation of, any other powers possessed by the Governor, or the Governor in Council, or any public officer.

3.-(1) The Governor shall decide from what sources the prosecution materials required in carrying out the said Scheme are to be obtained, and shall have full control over the execution of the works and over all persons employed in connexion therewith; and he may appoint such persons as he may think fit to execute such works, and may determine the remunera- tion and conditions of employment of such persons.

(2) In carrying out the said scheme it shall be lawful for the Governor to authorise such alteration, amendment or revision of the plan referred to in section 2 (1) (a) as he may consider desirable, and to make the consequential deviations from the said plan.

(3) It shall be lawful for the Governor to suspend, abandon or terminate the scheme at any point at which he considers it advisable so to do.

807

Scheme.

4. (1) The expenditure required for preparing, Defraying developing and carrying out the said Scheme shall be cost of the authorised and appropriated from time to time by Resolutions of the Legislative Council, subject to the approval of the Secretary of State, and shall be defrayed from a Fund, to be established and kept at the Treasury, into which shall be paid all sums which have been or may be received by the Government in respect of the sale of the City Hall and Beaconsfield Arcade sites as well as all sums to be received from land sales in connexion with the Scheme.

(2) Should the Fund at any time be insufficient for carrying out the Scheme or any portion thereof, advances or appropriations from the general revenues of the Colony shall be authorised by Resolutions of the Legislative Council, subject to the approval of the Secretary of State, in order to make good the deficiency.

(3) When the said Scheme is completed or is abandoned or otherwise terminated, any balance there may be standing to the credit of the Fund shall be appropriated by the Treasurer to the general revenue of the Colony under the heading or, classification of Land Sales.

Governor's

5. A certificate under the hand of the Colonial Secretary Evidence of shall be conclusive evidence for all purposes whatsoever of decision or any decision or opinion of the Governor under this Ordinance opinion. and of the terms and effect of any such decision or opinion.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The Government House and City Development Scheme authorised by this Ordinance is essentially a self- contained unit which will be proceeded with as circumstances permit.

2. The Scheme involves the sale from time to time of building sites which it is anticipated will yield more than sufficient to pay for the entire undertaking, though it may be necessary at certain stages to obtain advances from the revenues of the Colony.

3. To pay into the general revenue of the Colony the large sums which have been or will be received from time to time in connexion with such land sales would result in apparent fluctuations in the normal revenue of the Colony which it is desirable to avoid.

4. As, however, the proposal that revenue receipts from such land sales should pass into a special Fund, instead of to revenue, and that the expenditure on the Scheme should be met from the Fund and authorised by Resolutions of the Legislative Council involves a departure from the ordinary rules of Colonial Accounting, the Secretary of State, in approving the proposal, has required that the Scheme should be conducted under a special Ordinance which would legalise the diversion of the revenue from land sales from general revenue to the Fund and would also empower the appro- priation of the expenditure on the Scheme by Resolutions. of the Legislative Council.

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Empire Preference Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Section 2 of the Empire Preference Ordinance, 1932, is amended by the repeal of the paragraph beginning "The British Empire" and by the substitution of the following para- graph therefor :--

"The British Empire" means the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, the Dominions, India, the territories administered by His Majesty's Governments in the Dominions under Mandate or otherwise, the British Colonies and protected States, and the Mandated Territories of Tan- ganyika, the Cameroons under British Mandate and Togoland under British Mandate.

Objects and Reasons.

2. The purpose of the present amendment is to give effect to those instructions and to adopt the definition of "the British Empire" set out in the said despatch in place of that appearing in the principal Ordinance.

An Ordinance to amend the Evidence Ordinance, 1889.

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 Evidence Amend- ment Ordinance, 1934.

2. The Evidence Ordinance, 1889, is amended by the insertion of the following new section after section 3 thereof :--

3A. Where, in any proceeding against any person for an offence, any child of tender years who is tendered as a witness does not in the opinion of the court understand the nature of an oath, the evidence of that child may be received, though not given upon oath, if, in the opinion of the court, the child is possessed of sufficient intelligence to justify the reception of the evidence, and understands the duty of speaking the truth; and the provisions of section 29 of this Ordinance shall extend to the evidence of the child, though not given on oath, but otherwise taken and reduced into writing in accordance with the provisions of section 75 of the Magistrates Ordinance, 1932:

Provided that--

(a) No person shall be liable to be convicted of the offence unless the testimony admitted by virtue of this section and given on behalf of the prosecution is corroborated by some other material evidence in support thereof implicating the accused; and

(b) Any child, whose evidence is received as aforesaid and who wilfully gives false evidence under such circumstances that, if the evidence had been given on oath, he would have been guilty of perjury, shall, subject to the provisions of the Juvenile Offenders Ordinance, 1932, be liable on summary conviction to such punishment as might have been awarded had he been charged with perjury and the case been dealt with summarily under section 7 of that Ordinance.

3. Sub-section (3) of section 7 of the Protection of Women and Girls Ordinance, 1897, is repealed.

:

825

Objects and Reasons.

A BILL

INTITULED

[No. 33:-27.8.34.-2.]

An Ordinance to amend the Estate Duty Ordinance, 1932.

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

as the Estate Duty

1. This Ordinance may be cited as Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. The Estate Duty Ordinance, 1932, is amended by the insertion of the following section, numbered 3A, immediately after section 3 thereof:

3A. (1) The Chief Justice may, by a commission signed by him, appoint the Commissioner or any Deputy Com- missioner to be a commissioner to administer oaths and take declarations and affirmations, for the purposes of this Ordin- ance, and may revoke any such appointment.

(2) Every person so appointed shall be styled a com- missioner for oaths and shall have all the powers and discharge all the duties which now belong to the office of a commissioner to administer oaths.

(3) Every commission issued by a Chief Justice before the commencement of this Ordinance and purporting to appoint any person to be a commissioner for oaths for the purposes of this or any other Ordinance relating to Estate Duty, and everything done under the colour of any such commission, is validated for all purposes as if such commission had been issued under the authority of this Ordinance.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Appointments of commissioners to administer oaths, etc., for the purposes of the law relating to Estate Duty have hitherto been made by former Chief Justices under section 702 (1) of the Code of Civil Procedure Ordinance, 1901.

That sub-section reads as follows:--

702. (1) The Chief Justice may, by a commission signed by him, appoint fit and proper persons to be com- missioners to administer oaths and

and take

            take declarations, affirmations and attestations of honour in the court......'

2. The present Chief Justice has held that the words "in the court" in this sub-section qualify the words "to administer oaths" as well as the

the following words, and that he has therefore no power to issue a commission appointing a Commissioner of Estate Duty, who administers oaths outside the Court, to be a commissioner for oaths.

3. The amendment of the Estate Duty Ordinance, 1932, effected by the present Bill gets rid of this difficulty, and also validates all previous commissions by previous Chief Justices issued to Commissioners of Estate Duty, and all proceedings taken under colour of such commissions.

2. Section 2 of the Liquors Ordinance, 1931, is amended Amendment by the addition of the following paragraph numbered (8A) of Ordinance immediately after paragraph (8) thereof :-

(8A) "Distillery licence" means a licence authorising the person named therein to use one or more stills on the premises. named therein for the purpose of making, distilling or rectify- ing spirits, and to sell such spirits.

1931, s. 2.

3. Section 9 of the Liquors Ordinance, 1931, is amended Amendment by the addition of the following sub-section at the end of Ordinance thereof :-

(8) The Board shall meet annually in November and at such other times as may be necessary for the transaction of licensing business.

No. 36 of 1931, s. 9.

4. Section 15 of the Liquors Ordinance, 1931, is amended Amendment by the insertion of the words "address and" immediately be- fore the word "proposed" in the sixth line thereof.

No. 36 of

1931, s. 15.

5. Section 18 of the Liquors Ordinance, 1931, is repealed Substitution and the following section substituted.

for Ordinance No. 36 of

18. (1) The Board may, in their discretion and subject 1931, s. 18. to the payment of the fee specified in the Second Schedule, on good cause shewn direct the transfer, in respect of the same premises, of any publican's or adjunct licence to some other person, such person making a like application as if applying for a new licence on his own behalf. A note of any such transfer shall be endorsed by the Treasurer upon the licence.

(2) The Board may, in their discretion and on its being proved to their satisfaction that the holder of any publican's or adjunct licence has committed a breach of any term or con- dition of his licence, and whether such holder has been con- victed of such breach or not, direct the cancellation of such licence.

(3) An applicant for a transfer under sub-section (1) and a licensee whose licence is directed to be cancelled under sub-section (2) or, in either case, twenty householders resid- ing within a radius of a quarter of a mile from the licensed premises concerned shall be entitled to appeal to the Governor in Council in respect of any decision of the Board under this

section.

6. Section 61 of the Liquors Ordinance, 1931, is amended by the insertion of the words "Save as provided by section 4" at the beginning thereof.

Amendment No. 36 of

of Ordinance

1931, s. 61.

828

Objects and Reasons.

1. When the Liquors Ordinance, 1931, was submitted to the Secretary of State, he suggested in his dispatch of the 1st April, 1932, that certain minor amendments were desirable when a suitable opportunity of amending the Ordinance occurred. His suggestions (with one exception) are carried out in Clauses 2, 3, 4 and 6 of this Bill.

2. Clause 2 inserts in section 2 of the principal Ordinance a definition of "distillery licence" which has been drafted after consultation with the Superintendent of Imports and Exports.

3. Clause 3 provides for meetings of the Board, annually in November and on other occasions when necessary.

4. Clause 4 by adding the words "address and" in section 15 of the principal Ordinance gives persons living in the vicinity of premises in respect of which application for a licence is made a better opportunity of identifying the premises in case they wish to oppose the application or to appeal to the Governor in Council against a decision of the Licensing Board under section 13.

5. The effect of the words added by clause 6 to section 61 of the principal Ordinance is to remove a conflict between that section and section 4.

6. Clause 5 substitutes for section 18 of the principal Ordinance a new section the provisions of which have been found by experience to be necessary.

The law as it stands precludes the transfer of a licence without the consent of the original licensee, and hence the licensed nominee of a firm or company owning licensed premises could, if dismissed, bring the whole business to a standstill by refusing his consent to any transfer of the licence. Again, if a licensee leaves the Colony in breach of a condition of his licence the same impasse arises, since the Ordinance makes no provision for forfeiture of a licence except under section 85 on a second or subsequent conviction of the licensee by a magistrate.

The new section by sub-section (1) empowers the Board on good cause shewn to direct the transfer of a licence; by sub-section (2) further empowers the Board, on the breach of a term or condition thereof, to order the cancellation of a licence; and by sub-section (3) the right of appeal to the Governor in Council against a decision of the Board under this section is given to

(a) an aggrieved applicant for transfer under sub-section (1);

(b) a licensee whose licence is directed to be cancelled under sub-section (2); and

(c) in either case, to twenty interested householders living near the licensed premises affected.

No. S. 333.-The following Bills were read a first time at a meeting of the Council held on the 27th September, 1934 :--

Short title.

Addition of new section

3A to Ordi- nance No. 3

of 1932.

Appointment of commis- sioner for oaths.

Validation of previous commissions.

A BILL

INTITULED

[No. 33-24.9.34.-3.]

An Ordinance to amend the Estate Duty Ordinance, 1932.

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 Estate Duty Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. The Estate Duty Ordinance, 1932, is amended by the insertion of the following section, numbered 3A, immediately after section 3 thereof:

3A. (1) The Chief Justice may, by a commission signed by him, appoint the Commissioner or any Deputy Com- missioner to be a commissioner to administer oaths and take declarations and affirmations for the purposes of this Ordin- ance, and may revoke any such appointment.

(2) Every person so appointed shall be styled a com- missioner for oaths and shall have all the powers and discharge all the duties which now belong to the office of a commissioner to administer oaths.

3. Every commission issued by a Chief Justice before the commencement of this Ordinance and purporting to appoint any person to be a commissioner for oaths for the purposes of this or any other Ordinance relating to Estate Duty, and everything done under the colour of any such commission, is validated for all purposes.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Appointments of commissioners to administer oaths, etc., for the purposes of the law relating to Estate Duty have hitherto been made by former Chief Justices under section 702 (1) of the Code of Civil Procedure Ordinance, 1901.

That sub-section reads as follows:

702.-(1) The Chief Justice may, by a commission. signed by him, appoint fit and proper persons to be com- missioners to

to administer oaths and take declarations, affirmations and attestations of honour in the court......

2. The present Chief Justice has held that the words "in the court" in this sub-section qualify the words "to administer oaths"

as well as the following words, and that he has therefore no power to issue a commission appointing a Commissioner of Estate Duty, who administers oaths outside the Court, to be a commissioner for oaths.

3. The amendment of the Estate Duty Ordinance, 1932, effected by the present Bill gets rid of this difficulty, and also validates all previous commissions by previous Chief Justices issued to Commissioners of Estate Duty, and all proceedings taken under colour of such commissions

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Liquors Amend- Short title. ment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Section 2 of the Liquors Ordinance, 1931, is amended Amendment by the addition of the following paragraph numbered (SA) of Ordina immediately after paragraph (8) thereof:-

(8A) "Distillery licence" means a licence authorising the person named therein to use one or more stills on the premises named therein for the purpose of making, distilling or rectify- ing spirits, and to sell such spirits.

No. 36 of 1931, s. 2.

3. Section 9 of the Liquors Ordinance, 1931, is amended Amendment by the addition of the following sub-section at the end of Ordinance thereof :-

No. 36 of

1931, s. 15.

5. Section 18 of the Liquors Ordinance, 1931, is repealed Substitution and the following section substituted.

for Ordinance No. 36 of

18. (1) The Board may, in their discretion and subject 1931, s. 18. to the payment of the fee specified in the Second Schedule, on good cause shewn direct the transfer, in respect of the same. premises, of any publican's or adjunct licence to some other person, such person making a like application as if applying for a new licence on his own behalf. A note of any such transfer shall be endorsed by the Treasurer upon the licence.

(2) The Board may, in their discretion and on its being proved to their satisfaction that the holder of any publican's or adjunct licence has committed a breach of any term or con- dition of his licence, and whether such holder has been con- victed of such breach or not, direct the cancellation of such licence.

(3) An applicant for a transfer under sub-section (1) and a licensee whose licence is directed to be cancelled under sub-section (2) or, in either case, twenty householders resid- ing within a radius of a quarter of a mile from the licensed premises concerned shall be entitled to appeal to the Governor in Council in respect of any decision of the Board under this

section.

6. Section 61 of the Liquors Ordinance, 1931, is amended by the insertion of the words "Save as provided by section 4" at the beginning thereof.

Amendment No. 36 of

of Ordinance

1931, s. 61.

846

-

Objects and Reasons.

1. When the Liquors Ordinance, 1931, was submitted to the Secretary of State, he suggested in his dispatch of the 1st April, 1932, that certain minor amendments were desirable when a suitable opportunity of amending the Ordinance occurred. His suggestions (with one exception) are carried out in Clauses 2, 3, 4 and 6 of this Bill.

2. Clause 2 inserts in section 2 of the principal Ordinance a definition of "distillery licence" which has been drafted after consultation with the Superintendent of Imports and Exports.

3. Clause 3 provides for meetings of the Board, annually in November and on other occasions when necessary.

4. Clause 4 by adding the words "address and" in section 15 of the principal Ordinance gives persons living in the vicinity of premises in respect of which application for a licence is made a better opportunity of identifying the premises in case they wish to oppose the application or to appeal to the Governor in Council against a decision of the Licensing Board under section 13.

5. The effect of the words added by clause 6 to section 61 of the principal Ordinance is to remove a conflict between that section and section 4.

6. Clause 5 substitutes for section 18 of the principal Ordinance a new section the provisions of which have been found by experience to be necessary.

The law as it stands precludes the transfer of a licence. without the consent of the original licensee, and hence the licensed nominee of a firm or company owning licensed premises could, if dismissed, bring the whole business to a standstill by refusing his consent to any transfer of the licence. Again, if a licensee leaves the Colony in breach of a condition of his licence the same impasse arises, since the Ordinance makes no provision for forfeiture of a licence except under section 85 on a second or subsequent conviction of the licensee by a magistrate.

The new section by sub-section (1) empowers the Board on good cause shewn to direct the transfer of a licence; by sub-section (2) further empowers the Board, on the breach of a term or condition thereof, to order the cancellation of a licence; and by sub-section (3) the right of appeal to the Governor in Council against a decision of the Board under this section is given to

(a) an aggrieved applicant for transfer under sub-section (1);

(b) a licensee whose licence is directed to be cancelled under sub-section (2); and

(c) in either case, to twenty interested householders living near the licensed premises affected.

the drum, tin, case or other package containing them shall have attached thereto the label, if any, prescribed by the Governor in Council under this Ordinance in respect of such goods.

(2) All dangerous goods which are sent, conveyed, sold or exposed for sale in contravention of this section shall, together with the drum, tin, case or other package containing the same, be forfeited, and, in addition, the person sending, conveying, selling or exposing for sale the same shall be liable to a fine not exceeding twenty-five dollars.

5. Sub-sections (1) and (5) of section 10 of the said Substitution Ordinance are repealed and the following sub-sections are sub- for Ordin- stituted therefor :-

(1) Save in respect of dangerous goods carried as cargo in ships to which section 8 applies, and save as hereinafter mentioned or as may be provided by regulations made under section 5. no person shall have in his possession, custody or control, or in the possession, custody or control of any servant, agent, or warehouse owner, any dangerous goods except in pursuance of licence granted by the Inspector General of Police.

be

(5) If any person has dangerous goods in his possession, custody or control, or in the possession, custody or control of any servant, agent or warehouse owner, in contravention of this section, such dangerous goods shall, together with the drums, tins, cases or other packages containing the same, liable to forfeiture, and in addition such person shall be liable to imprisonment for any term not exceeding six months and to a fine not exceeding two hundred and fifty dollars, and further such person shall also be liable to a fine not exceeding one hundred dollars a day for each day after the first day during which such goods are proved to have been in his possession, custody or power or in the possession on his behalf of any servant, agent or warehouse owner.

ance No. 1 of 1873, ss. 10 (1) and 10 (5).

Objects and Reasons.

1. The amendments to be enacted by this Ordinance are necessitated in the main by the recent drafting of a new and complete code of "dangerous goods" regulations to which the Chamber of Commerce has agreed and which are. to be made by the Governor in Council under section 5 of the principal Ordinance.

2. Clause 2 omits as redundant the words "an order of" from section 2 of the principal Ordinance. It is quite sufficient to require no more than a declaration by the Governor in Council to make any goods "dangerous".

Cf. the amendment to section 40 (2) of the Interpretation Ordinance, 1911, effected by the Interpretation Amendment Ordinance, 1927.

3. Clause 3 substitutes for paragraph (f) of section 3 (1) a new paragraph enabling regulations to be made for the test- ing of dangerous goods and petroleum containers, and inserts in the same sub-section a new paragraph (ff) allowing provi- sion by regulation for the labelling or otherwise marking of dangerous goods. Such labelling is a feature of the new regulations which are already in print.

$62

4. Clause 4 substitutes a new section for section 9, since some of the old provisions will be no longer necessary wher the new regulations come into force.

5. By clause 5 sub-sections (1) and (5) of section 10 have been redrafted.

The effect of the additional words added at the beginning of sub-section (1) is to exempt the masters of ships that enter the harbour carrying dangerous goods from the licensing pro- visions of this section.

In both sub-sections the words or warehouse owner' have been inserted after "servant or agent" in order to make it quite clear that the owner of dangerous goods who deposits them in another's godown is not thereby relieved from personal liability to take out a licence in respect of such goods.

One or two slight alterations of wording have also been made.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Railways Ordinance, 1909.

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 Railways (No. 2) Short title. Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

of Ordinance No. 21 of

2. Sub-section (6) of section 35 of the Railways Ordin- Amendment ance, 1909, as enacted by the Railways Amendment Ordinance, of Ordina 1927, is repealed and the following sub-section is substituted therefor :-

(6) This section shall not apply to any person who is in receipt of a yearly salary of two hundred pounds or two thousand dollars or upwards.

1909, s. 35.

Ordinance No. 28 of 1927.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 35 of the principal Ordinance, as amended by the amending Ordinance of 1927, gives the Manager of the Railway a limited power to dismiss, suspend and punish for misconduct railway servants in receipt of salaries of less than £100 or $1000 per year who are not on the permanent establishment or serving under written agreements; and also empowers him to fine for breach of a rule made under section 32 any railway servant whose salary does reach either of these figures.

2. It has been found desirable to increase this salary limit, and the main purpose of the proposed amendment is to enable the Manager of the Railway, with a view to ensuring stricter discipline, to exercise the power to fine against any employee who receives not more than £200 or $2000 per annum as salary.

A BILL

INTITULED

[No. 37-13.9.34. - 1.]

An Ordinance to amend the Police Force Ordinance, 1932.

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 Police Force Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Section 6 of the Police Force Ordinance, 1932, is amended by the substitution of the following sub-section for sub-section (2) thereof :-

(2) Such period of engagement may include a probation- ary period, which in the case of a subordinate officer, constable or member of a crew shall not exceed six months. Should any person thus engaged be found during his probationary period to be unsatisfactory, the Inspector General may at any time. during such probationary period terminate the engagement.

Objects and Reasons.

Under section 10 of the principal Ordinance the inter- preters and telephone clerks employed by the Police Depart- ment fall for pension purposes under the ordinary civil pen- sions law, and it is considered that the conditions for such officers in respect of probation and confirmation should be assimilated to those in force for similar officers in the ordinary civil service, namely a minimum probation of two years. amendment of section 6 (2) of the principal Ordinance is there- fore necessary confining the limitation of six months for pro- bation to the disciplined staff of the Force.

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 Criminal Procedure Short title. Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Section 77 of the Criminal Procedure Ordinance, 1899, Repeal and and the heading thereto are repealed and the following section substitution and heading are substituted therefor :-

Pregnancy and Infanticide.

of Ordinance No. 9 of 1899, s. 77.

victed of capital offence.

21 & 22 Geo.

(2) Where any such woman alleges that she is pregnant, 5, c. 24. or where the court before whom she is convicted thinks fit so to direct, before sentence is passed two or more medical practitioners shall be sworn and shall examine the woman in some private place, either together or successively, and shall inquire whether she is pregnant or not.

If on the report of any of such medical practitioners it appears to the court that the woman is pregnant sentence of death shall not be passed upon her.

(3) No jury de ventre inspiciendo shall be empanelled or sworn in any such case.

(4) Where on proceedings under sub-section (2) the court finds that the woman in question is not pregnant, and passes sentence of death, the woman may appeal to the Full Court under section 78A as enacted by the Criminal Procedure Amendment Ordinance, 1933, and that Court, if satisfied for Ordinance any reason that the finding should be set aside, shall quash No, 5 of the sentence passed on such woman and shall pass instead sentence of imprisonment for life.

(5) The rights conferred by this section on a woman convicted of an offence punishable with death shall be in substitution for the right of such a woman to allege in stay of execution that she is quick with child.

1933.

866

Amendment

   3. The Criminal Procedure Ordinance, 1899. is amended of Ordinance by the insertion of the following section, numbered 77A,

immediately after section 77 thereof :----

No. 9 of

1899

by addition

of new s. 77A.

Conviction for infan- ticide in

certain cases. 5, c. 18, s. 1.

12 & 13 Geo.

Ordinance No. 2 of 1865.

Ordinance No. 2 of 1865.

77A. (1) Where a woman by any wilful act or omission causes the death of her newly-born child, but at the time of the act or omission she had not fully recovered from the effect of giving birth to such child, and by reason thereof the balance. of her mind was then disturbed, she shall, notwithstanding that the circumstances were such that but for the provisions of this section the offence would have amounted to murder, be guilty of felony, to wit of infanticide, and may for such offence be dealt with and punished as if she had been guilty of the offence of manslaughter of such child.

(2) Where upon the trial of a woman for the murder of her newly-born child, the jury are of opinion that she by any wilful act or omission caused its death, but that at the time of the act or omission she had not fully recovered from the effect of giving birth to such child, and that by reason thereof the balance of her mind was then disturbed, the jury may, notwithstanding that the circumstances were such that but for the provisions of this section they might have returned a verdict of murder, return in lieu thereof a verdict of infan- ticide.

(3) Nothing in this section shall affect the power of the jury upon an indictment for the murder of a newly-born child to return a verdict of manslaughter, or a verdict of guilty but insane, or a verdict of concealment of birth in pursuance of section 49 of the Offences against the Person Ordinance, 1865.

(4) The said section 49 shall also apply in the case of the acquittal of a woman upon indictment for infanticide as it applies upon the acquittal of a woman for murder, and upon the trial of any person over the age of sixteen for infanticide it shall be lawful for the jury, if they are satisfied that the accused is guilty of an offence under section 26A of the offences against the Person Ordinance, 1865, to find the ac- cused guilty of such an offence, and in that case that section shall apply accordingly.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The substituted section 77 and the new section 77A to be incorporated by this Bill in the Criminal Procedure Ordin- ance, 1899, introduce in Hong Kong, on directions from the Secretary of State, the main provisions of the Infanticide Act, 1922, and the Sentence of Death (Expectant Mothers) Act, 1931. The former of these Acts established infanticide in certain circumstances as a special form of homicide, punishable as manslaughter, while the latter prohibits sentence of death on any pregnant woman convicted of a capital offence, sub- stitutes therefor a sentence of imprisonment for life, and lays down the special procedure by which the question of alleged or suspected pregnancy is to be inquired into and determined.

867

2. Thus clause 2 of this Bill substitutes for section 77 of the principal Ordinance a new section of which sub-sections (1), (4) and (5) are reproductions with the necessary modifica- tions of section 1 and sub-sections (4) and (5) of section 2 respectively of the Act of 1931.

Sub-section (2) retains the provisions of old section 77 regarding the examination of a convicted woman, who claims to be pregnant, by two or more medical practitioners sworn for the purpose, instead of, as in England, by a jury de ventre inspiciendo; but includes also the provisions of the 1931 Act to the effect that (a) the procedure for determination of the question of pregnancy is to be carried out before sentence instead of on a motion, after sentence, in arrest of execution, and (b) the Court may order the examination ex proprio motu.

3. Similarly clause 3 reproduces with the necessary modi- fications sub-sections (1), (2), (3) and (4) of section 1 of the Infanticide Act, 1922.

2. Section 14 of the Merchandise Marks Ordinance, 1890, is amended

(a) by the insertion of the following paragraph, numbered (3), immediately after paragraph (2) thereof :-

(3) (i) where any such goods bearing any such name or trade mark as aforesaid are imported into the Colony, and the Superintendent of Imports and Exports is, upon representations made to him, satisfied that the use of the name or trade mark is fraudulent, the Superintendent of Imports and Exports may also require the importer of the goods, or his agent, to produce any documents in his possession relating to the goods and to furnish information as to the name and address of the person by whom the goods were consigned to the Colony and the name and address of the person to whom the goods were sent in the Colony; and, if the importer or his agent fails within fourteen days to comply with any such requirement, he shall on summary conviction be liable for each offence to a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars;

1. The main purpose of this Ordinance is to conserve the Colony's sand deposits which have recently become depleted chiefly through unauthorised removal, it being extremely difficult to exercise effective control over junks engaged in the sand trade.

2. Clause 3 therefore vests in the Governor the exclusive privilege of collecting, storing and selling sand from beaches or unleased land in the Colony.

Clause 4 empowers the Governor to prescribe the measures necessary for the working of the monopoly.

By Clause 5 the Director of Public Works is authorised to issue permits for the collection and removal of sand, it being intended that a small fleet of junks shall be engaged, given distinctive marks and employed solely in sand carrying for the Government.

Clause 6 prohibits the carriage of sand by water except by ocean going steamers even although the sand may have come from outside the Colony.

Clause 7 is penal and Clause 8 requires all proceeds from the sale of sand to be paid into revenue.

Substitution

for Ordin-

ance No. 1 of 1873, s. 9.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend further the Dangerous Goods

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 Dangerous Goods Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Section 2 of the Dangerous Goods Ordinance, 1873, is amended by the deletion of the words "an order of" in the fourth line of paragraph (b) thereof.

3. Sub-section (1) of section 5 of the Dangerous Goods Ordinance, 1873, is amended-

(i) by the repeal of paragraph (f) thereof and the substitution of the following paragraph :-

100

(f) for prescribing any tests to be applied for any purpose whatsoever to any dangerous goods or to any receptacle which has contained petroleum;

and (ii) by the insertion of the following paragraph (f) immediately after paragraph (f) thereof:---

!

(f) for prescribing the labels to be attached or affixed to dangerous goods or other methods of marking such goods;

4. Section 9 of the said Ordinance is repealed and the following section substituted: -

9.--(1) Where any dangerous goods-

(a) are sent or conveyed by land or water between any two places in the Colony; or

(b) are sold or exposed for sale;

the drum, tin, case or other package containing them shall have attached thereto the label, if any, prescribed by the Governor in Council under this Ordinance in respect of such goods.

911

(2) All dangerous goods which are sent, conveyed, sold or exposed for sale in contravention of this section shall, together with the drum, tin, case or other package containing the same, be forfeited, and, in addition, the person sending, conveying, selling or exposing for sale the same shall be liable to a fine not exceeding twenty-five dollars.

5. Sub-sections (1) and (5) of section 10 of the said Substitution Ordinance are repealed and the following sub-sections are sub- stituted therefor :-

(1) Save in respect of dangerous goods carried as cargo in ships to which section 8 applies, and save as hereinafter mentioned or as may be provided by regulations made under section 5, no person shall have in his possession, custody or control, or in the possession, custody or control of any servant, agent, or warehouse owner, any dangerous goods except in pursuance of licence granted by the Inspector General of Police.

"

(5) If any person has dangerous goods in his possession, custody or control, or in the possession, custody or control of any servant, agent or warehouse owner, in contravention of this section, such dangerous goods shall, together with the drums, tins, cases or other packages containing the same, be liable to forfeiture, and in addition such person shall be liable to imprisonment for any term not exceeding six months and to a fine not exceeding two hundred and fifty dollars, and further such person shall also be liable to a fine not exceeding one hundred dollars a day for each day after the first day during which such goods are proved to have been in his possession, custody or power or in the possession on his behalf of any servant, agent or warehouse owner.

for Ordin-

ance No. 1

of 1873, ss. 10 (1) and 10 (5).

Objects and Reasons.

1. The amendments to be enacted by this Ordinance are necessitated in the main by the recent drafting of a new and complete code of "dangerous goods" regulations to which the Chamber of Commerce has agreed and which are to be made by the Governor in Council under section 5 of the principal Ordinance.

2. Clause 2 omits as redundant the words "an order of" from section 2 of the principal Ordinance. It is quite sufficient to require no more than a declaration by the Governor in Council to make any goods "dangerous".

Cf. the amendment to section 40 (2) of the Interpretation Ordinance, 1911, effected by the Interpretation Amendment Ordinance, 1927.

3. Clause 3 substitutes for paragraph (f) of section 3 (1) a new paragraph enabling regulations to be made for the test- ing of dangerous goods and petroleum containers, and inserts in the same sub-section a new paragraph (ff) allowing provi- sion by regulation for the labelling or otherwise marking of dangerous goods. Such labelling is a feature of the new regulations which are already in print.

912

4. Clause 4 substitutes a new section for section 9, since some of the old provisions will be no longer necessary wher the new regulations come into force.

5. By clause 5 sub-sections (1) and (5) of section 10 have been redrafted.

The effect of the additional words added at the beginning of sub-section (1) is to exempt the masters of ships that enter the harbour carrying dangerous goods from the licensing pro- visions of this section.

In both sub-sections the words "or warehouse owner" have been inserted after "servant or agent" in order to make it quite clear that the owner of dangerous goods who deposits them in another's godown is not thereby relieved from personal liability to take out a licence in respect of such goods.

One or two slight alterations of wording have also been made.

A BILL

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Railways Ordinance, 1909.

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 Railways (No. 2) Short title. Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

Ordinance

2. Sub-section (6) of section 35 of the Railways Ordin- Amendment ance, 1909, as enacted by the Railways Amendment Ordinance, of Ordina 1927, is repealed and the following sub-section is substituted 1909, s. 35. therefor

(6) This section shall not apply to any person who is in receipt of a yearly salary of two hundred pounds or two thousand dollars or upwards.

Ordinance No. 28 of 1927.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 35 of the principal Ordinance, as amended by the amending Ordinance of 1927, gives the Manager of the Railway a limited power to dismiss, suspend and punish for misconduct railway servants in receipt of salaries of less than £100 or $1000 per year who are not on the permanent establishment or serving under written agreements; and also empowers him to fine for breach of a rule made under section 32 any railway servant whose salary does reach either of these figures.

2. It has been found desirable to increase this salary limit, and the main purpose of the proposed amendment is to enable the Manager of the Railway, with a view to ensuring stricter discipline, to exercise the power to fine against any employee who receives not more than £200 or $2000 per annum as salary.

A BILL

INTITULED

[No. 37-13.9.34.-1.]

An Ordinance to amend the Police Force Ordinance, 1932.

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 Police Force Amendment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Section 6 of the Police Force Ordinance, 1932, is amended by the substitution of the following sub-section for sub-section (2) thereof :-

(2) Such period of engagement may include a probation- ary period, which in the case of a subordinate officer, constable or member of a crew shall not exceed six months. Should any person thus engaged be found during his probationary period to be unsatisfactory, the Inspector General may at any time during such probationary period terminate the engagement.

Objects and Reasons.

Under section 10 of the principal Ordinance the inter- preters and telephone clerks employed by the Police Depart- ment fall for pension purposes under the ordinary civil pen- sions law, and it is considered that the conditions for such officers in respect of probation and confirmation should be assimilated to those in force for similar officers in the ordinary civil service, namely a minimum probation of two years. amendment of section 6 (2) of the principal Ordinance is there- fore necessary confining the limitation of six months for pro- bation to the disciplined staff of the Force.

victed of capital offence.

21 & 22 Geo.

(2) Where any such woman alleges that she is pregnant, 5, c. 24. or where the court before whom she is convicted thinks fit so to direct, before sentence is passed two or more medical practitioners shall be sworn and shall examine the woman in some private place, either together or successively, and shall inquire whether she is pregnant or not.

If on the report of any of such medical practitioners it appears to the court that the woman is pregnant sentence of death shall not be passed upon her.

(3) No jury de ventre inspiciendo shall be empanelled or sworn in any such case.

(4) Where on proceedings under sub-section (2) the court finds that the woman in question is not pregnant, and passes sentence of death, the woman may appeal to the Full Court under section 78A as enacted by the Criminal Procedure Amendment Ordinance, 1933, and that Court, if satisfied for Ordinance any reason that the finding should be set aside, shall quash No. 5 of

of new s. 77A.

Conviction for infan- ticide in

12 & 13 Geo.

77A.-(1) Where a woman by any wilful act or omission causes the death of her newly-born child, but at the time of certain cases, the act or omission she had not fully recovered from the effect 5, c. 18, s. 1. of giving birth to such child, and by reason thereof the balance of her mind was then disturbed, she shall, notwithstanding that the circumstances were such that but for the provisions of this section the offence would have amounted to murder, be guilty of felony, to wit of infanticide, and may for such offence be dealt with and punished as if she had been guilty of the offence of manslaughter of such child.

Ordinance No. 2 of 1865.

Ordinance

No. 2 of 1865.

(2) Where upon the trial of a woman for the murder of her newly-born child, the jury are of opinion that she by any wilful act or omission caused its death, but that at the time. of the act or omission she had not fully recovered from the effect of giving birth to such child, and that by reason thereof the balance of her mind was then disturbed, the jury may, notwithstanding that the circumstances were such that but for the provisions of this section they might have returned a verdict of murder, return in lieu thereof a verdict of infan- ticide.

(3) Nothing in this section shall affect the power of the jury upon an indictment for the murder of a newly-born child to return a verdict of manslaughter, or a verdict of guilty but insane, or a verdict of concealment of birth in pursuance of section 49 of the Offences against the Person Ordinance, 1865.

(4) The said section 49 shall also apply in the case of the acquittal of a woman upon indictment for infanticide as it applies upon the acquittal of a woman for murder, and upon the trial of any person over the age of sixteen for infanticide it shall be lawful for the jury, if they are satisfied that the accused is guilty of an offence under section 26A of the offences against the Person Ordinance, 1865, to find the ac- cused guilty of such an offence, and in that case that section shall apply accordingly.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The substituted section 77 and the new section 77A to be incorporated by this Bill in the Criminal Procedure Ordin- ance, 1899, introduce in Hong Kong, on directions from the Secretary of State, the main provisions of the Infanticide Act, 1922, and the Sentence of Death (Expectant Mothers) Act, 1931. The former of these Acts established infanticide in certain circumstances as a special form of homicide, punishable as manslaughter, while the latter prohibits sentence of death on any pregnant woman convicted of a capital offence, sub- stitutes therefor a sentence of imprisonment for life, and lays down the special procedure by which the question of alleged or suspected pregnancy is to be inquired into and determined.

¡

2. Thus clause 2 of this Bill substitutes for section 77 of the principal Ordinance a new section of which sub-sections (1), (4) and (5) are reproductions with the necessary modifica- tions of section 1 and sub-sections (4) and (5) of section 2 respectively of the Act of 1931.

Sub-section (2) retains the provisions of old section 77 regarding the examination of a convicted woman, who claims to be pregnant, by two or more medical practitioners sworn for the purpose, instead of, as in England, by a jury de ventre inspiciendo; but includes also the provisions of the 1931 Act to the effect that (a) the procedure for determination of the question of pregnancy is to be carried out before sentence instead of on a motion, after sentence, in arrest of execution, and (b) the Court may order the examination ex proprio motu.

3. Similarly clause 3 reproduces with the necessary modi- fications sub-sections (1), (2), (3) and (4) of section 1 of the Infanticide Act, 1922.

Ordinance, 1890.

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 Merchandise Marks Amendment (No. 2) Ordinance, 1934.

2. Section 14 of the Merchandise Marks Ordinance, 1890, is amended-

(a) by the insertion of the following paragraph, numbered (3), immediately after paragraph (2) thereof :-

(3) (i) where any such goods bearing any such name or trade mark as aforesaid are imported into the Colony, and the Superintendent of Imports and Exports is, upon representations made to him, satisfied that the use of the name or trade mark is fraudulent, the Superintendent of Imports and Exports may also require the importer of the goods, or his agent, to produce any documents in his possession relating to the goods and to furnish information as to the name and address of the person by whom the goods were consigned to the Colony and the name and address of the person to whom the goods were sent in the Colony; and, if the importer or his agent fails within fourteen days to comply with any such requirement, he shall on summary conviction be liable for each offence to a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars;

(ii) any information obtained from the importer of the goods or his agent under paragraph (i), or from any other source, may be communicated by the Superintendent of Im- ports and Exports to any person whose name or trade mark is alleged to have been used or infringed;

If the information required is not forthcoming within 14 days, the importer renders himself liable to a heavy fine.

Furthermore, the Superintendent of Imports and Exports is empowered to communicate any information which he ac- quires to any person whose name or trade mark is alleged to have been fraudulently used or infringed in connection with such goods.

5. It shall be lawful for the Director of Public Works to grant permits for the collection of sand and its removal to a prescribed place of storage.

6. (1) Except under the authority of this Ordinance no vessel other than an ocean-going steamship or motor-ship shall carry any sand whether such sand has been obtained within or without the Colony.

(2) Where any sand is found on board any vessel in con- travention of sub-section (1), the master or person in charge of such vessel shall be deemed to be in possession of such sand.

7.-(1) Every person who removes any sand from any place, except in accordance with a permit granted under section 5 or except, after purchase, from a prescribed place of storage, or is found in possession of sand otherwise than under the authority of this Ordinance, shall be guilty of an offence and liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding five hundred dollars in addition to the forfeiture of the sand in respect of which the offence has been committed.

ment.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The main purpose of this Ordinance is to conserve the Colony's sand deposits which have recently become depleted chiefly through unauthorised removal, it being extremely difficult to exercise effective control over junks engaged in the sand trade.

2. Clause 3 therefore vests in the Governor the exclusive privilege of collecting, storing and selling sand from beaches or unleased land in the Colony.

Clause 4 empowers the Governor to prescribe the measures necessary for the working of the monopoly.

By Clause 5 the Director of Public Works is authorised to issue permits for the collection and removal of sand, it being intended that a small fleet of junks shall be engaged, given distinctive marks and employed solely in sand carrying for the Government.

Clause 6 prohibits the carriage of sand by water except by ocean going steamers even although the sand may have come from outside the Colony.

Clause 7 is penal, Clause 8 requires all proceeds from the sale of sand to be paid into revenue and Clause 9 suspends the commencement of the Ordinance.

(3) References in this section to His Majesty's dominions outside the United Kingdom shall be construed as including references to any territories which are under His Majesty's protection and to any territories in respect of which a mandate under the League of Nations has been accepted by His Majesty.

14. The Judgments (Facilities for Enforcement) Ordin- Repeal of ance, 1921, is repealed.

Ordinance No. 32 of 1921.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Part II of the Administration of Justice Act, 1920, (10 and 11 Geo. 5, c. 81) provided inter alia for the registra- tion in England, Scotland and Ireland of judgments of the superior courts of any part of His Majesty's dominions in which reciprocal provisions might be enacted for the same purpose.

2. In Hong Kong such reciprocal provisions were made by the Judgments (Facilities for Enforcement) Ordinance, 1921, and by an Order of His Majesty in Council, dated the 1st March, 1922, Part II of the Act of 1920 was extended to this Colony accordingly.

3. The Secretary of State in his despatch of the 21st March, 1934, has now announced the possibility of Conven- tions being made with certain foreign countries for the reciprocal enforcement of judgments, and has asked that, if Hong Kong desires to accede to such Conventions, the necessary legislation should be passed to allow of the registra- tion and enforcement here of judgments of the superior courts of such foreign countries as also accede thereto.

4. In England the Foreign Judgments (Reciprocal En- forcement) Act, 1933, (23 Geo. 5, c. 15), was passed last year, and, as suggested by the Secretary of State, the present Bill follows almost word for word, but mutatis mutandis, the provisions of that Act.

5. Section 10 empowers the Governor in Council to extend the operation of the Ordinance to cover the registra- tion and enforcement of judgments obtained in the superior courts of other British dominions and also applies the provisions of the Ordinance to such of those dominions (e.g. Ceylon and Malaya) as have already entered into arrangements with Hong Kong for the reciprocal enforcement of judgments.

Section 11 further applies the provisions of the Ordinance to judgments obtained in the United Kingdom.

The need for the Judgment (Facilities for Enforcement) Ordinance, 1921, Ordinance No. 32 of 1921, which has hitherto provided the machinery for the registration, etc., of such judgments, thus disappears, and that Ordinance is therefore repealed by section 14.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The purpose of this Bill, as the title shows, is to regulate in the Colony the cremation of dead bodies by the establishment of crematoria and by the enactment of more exact and up to date provisions governing cremation than were made by the Cremation Ordinance, 1914.

3.

9. Clause 11 repeals the Cremation Ordinance, 1914, from which many of the provisions of this Bill are derived.

[s. 4 (2).]

3. The cremation ground for Indian troops at Kowloon shown on a plan deposited in the office of and signed by the Director of Public Works, and thereon coloured red and blue.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The purpose of this Bill, as the title shows, is to regulate in the Colony the cremation of dead bodies by the establishment of crematoria and by the enactment of more exact and up to date provisions governing cremation than were made by the Cremation Ordinance, 1914.

2. Clause 3 empowers the Governor by order to set apart any place as a Government crematorium, to discontinue the use of any such place for cremation, and to assign any such place to the control of any person, board or institution.

3. Clause 4 recognises certain premises as crematoria and prohibits cremation elsewhere, but by paragraph (4) makes a special exception in favour of such places as certain monasteries and nunneries in the New Territories, allowing cremation therein with the special permission of the Director of Medical and Sanitary Services.

977

4. Save as regards places in which cremation is allowed with the special permission of the Director of Medical and Sanitary Services, clause 5 lays down the conditions to be observed before any place will be approved for use as a crematorium.

5. By clause 6 the building of crematoria is in general forbidden in certain neighbourhoods.

6. Clause 7 empowers the Governor in Council to make regulations for the control of crematoria and cremation, and applies to crematoria registers the provisions of other Ordin- ances as to the destruction or falsification of burial registers, and the admissibility as evidence of extracts therefrom.

7. Clause 8 is penal and clause 9 makes cremation fees and expenses part of the funeral expenses of the deceased.

8. Clause 9 makes it clear that nothing in this enactment affects the power of a magistrate under section 17 of the Births and Deaths Registration Ordinance, 1934, to order any body to be cremated.

9. Clause 11 repeals the Cremation Ordinance, 1914, from which many of the provisions of this Bill are derived.

5. It shall be lawful for the Director of Public Works to grant permits for the collection of sand and its removal to a prescribed place of storage.

6.-(1) Except under the authority of this Ordinance no vessel other than an ocean-going steamship or motor-ship shall carry any sand whether such sand has been obtained within or without the Colony.

(2) Where any sand is found on board any vessel in con- travention of sub-section (1), the master or person in charge of such vessel shall be deemed to be in possession of such sand.

7.-(1) Every person who removes any sand from any place, except in accordance with a permit granted under section 5 or except, after purchase, from a prescribed place of storage, or is found in possession of sand otherwise than under the authority of this Ordinance, shall be guilty of an offence and liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding five hundred dollars in addition to the forfeiture of the sand in respect of which the offence has been committed.

(2) Where any person is convicted under sub-section (1) of possession of sand on board any vessel and the fine ordered by a magistrate to be paid is not forthwith paid, it shall be lawful for the magistrate to order such vessel to be forfeited.

(3) In any prosecution under this section the onus of proof that possession of any sand is under the authority of this Ordinance shall rest upon the person so removing or found in possession of sand.

ment.

Objects and Reasons.

1. The main purpose of this Ordinance is to conserve the Colony's sand deposits which have recently become depleted chiefly through unauthorised removal, it being extremely difficult to exercise effective control over junks engaged in the sand trade.

2. Clause 3 therefore vests in the Governor the exclusive privilege of collecting, storing and selling sand from beaches or unleased land in the Colony.

Clause 4 empowers the Governor to prescribe the measures

for the working of the monopoly.

necessary

By Clause 5 the Director of Public Works is authorised to issue permits for the collection and removal of sand, it being intended that a small fleet of junks shall be engaged, given distinctive marks and employed solely in sand carrying for the Government.

Clause 6 prohibits the carriage of sand by water except by ocean going steamers even although the sand may have come from outside the Colony.

Clause 7 is penal, Clause 8 requires all proceeds from the sale of sand to be paid into revenue and Clause 9 suspends the commencement of the Ordinance.

(ii) if the judgment debtor was plaintiff in, or counter- claimed in, the proceedings in the original court; or

(iii) if the judgment debtor, being a defendant in the original court, had before the commencement of the proceed- ings agreed, in respect of the subject matter of the proceed- ings, to submit to the jurisdiction of that court or of the courts of the country of that court; or

(iv) if the judgment debtor, being a defendant in the original court, was at the time when the proceedings were instituted resident in, or being a body corporate had its principal place of business in, the country of that court; or

(v) if the judgment debtor, being a defendant in the original court, had an office or place of business in the country of that court and the proceedings in that court were in respect of a transaction effected through or at that office or place;

(a) if the subject matter of the proceedings was im- movable property outside the country of the original court; or

(b) except in the cases mentioned in sub-paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) of paragraph (a) and in paragraph (c) of sub- section (2) of this section, if the bringing of the proceedings in the original court was contrary to an agreement under which the dispute in question was to be settled otherwise than by proceedings in the courts of the country of that court; or

(2) Where the registration of a judgment is set aside. under the last foregoing sub-section, or solely for the reason that the judgment was not at the date of the application for registration enforceable by execution in the country of the original court, the setting aside of the registration shall not prejudice a further application to register the judgment when

(2) This section shall not apply in the case of any judgment-

(a) where the judgment has been registered and the registration thereof has been set aside on some ground other than--

(i) that a sum of money was not payable under the judgment; or

(2) The said provisions shall apply in like manner to every part of His Majesty's dominions outside the United Kingdom to which, immediately before the commencement of this Ordinance, the Judgments (Facilities for Enforcement) Ordinance, 1921, applied, and to judgments obtained in the courts of such part of the said dominions, as if they had been applied to such part and to judgments given in the superior courts thereof by an order of the Governor in Council under section 3, and this Ordinance shall have effect accordingly.

(3) References in this section to His Majesty's dominions outside the United Kingdom shall be construed as including references to any territories which are under His Majesty's protection and to any territories in respect of which a mandate under the League of Nations has been accepted by His Majesty.

11. The foregoing provisions of this Ordinance relating to the enforcement of foreign judgments shall extend to judgments obtained in the superior courts of the United Kingdom in like manner as they extend to judgments obtained in the courts of foreign countries to which this Ordinance applies, and the said provisions shall apply accordingly, with the necessary modifications, as if they had been applied to the United Kingdom and to judgments given in the superior courts thereof by an order of the Governor in Council under section 3.

14. The Judgments (Facilities for Enforcement) Ordin- Repeal of ance, 1921, is repealed.

Ordinance No. 32 of 1921.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Part II of the Administration of Justice Act, 1920, (10 and 11 Geo. 5, c. 81) provided inter alia for the registra- tion in England, Scotland and Ireland of judgments of the superior courts of any part of His Majesty's dominions in which reciprocal provisions might be enacted for the same

purpose.

2. In Hong Kong such reciprocal provisions were made by the Judgments (Facilities for Enforcement) Ordinance, 1921, and by an Order of His Majesty in Council, dated the 1st March, 1922, Part II of the Act of 1920 was extended to this Colony accordingly.

3. The Secretary of State in his despatch of the 21st March, 1934, has now announced the possibility of Conven- tions being made with certain foreign countries for the reciprocal enforcement of judgments, and has asked that, if Hong Kong desires to accede to such Conventions, the necessary legislation should be passed to allow of the registra- tion and enforcement here of judgments of the superior courts of such foreign countries as also accede thereto.

4. In England the Foreign Judgments (Reciprocal En- forcement) Act, 1933, (23 Geo. 5, c. 15), was passed last year, and, as suggested by the Secretary of State, the present Bill follows almost word for word, but mutatis mutandis, the provisions of that Act.

5. Section 10 empowers the Governor in Council to extend the operation of the Ordinance to cover the registra- tion and enforcement of judgments obtained in the superior courts of other British dominions and also applies the provisions of the Ordinance to such of those dominions (e.g. Ceylon and Malaya) as have already entered into arrangements with Hong Kong for the reciprocal enforcement of judgments.

Section 11 further applies the provisions of the Ordinance to judgments obtained in the United Kingdom.

The need for the Judgment (Facilities for Enforcement) Ordinance, 1921, Ordinance No. 32 of 1921, which has hitherto provided the machinery for the registration, etc., of such judgments, thus disappears, and that Ordinance is therefore repealed by section 14.

A BILL

[No. 46-5.11.34.-1.

Short title.

Substitution for Ordin- ance No. 6 of 1906, s. 15 (2).

Amendment

of Ordin- ance No. 6 of 1906, s. 15, s.s. 3 and 4.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Asylums Ordinance, 1906.

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 Asylums Amend- ment Ordinance, 1934.

2. Sub-section 2 of section 15 of the Asylums Ordinance, 1906, is repealed and the following sub-section is substituted therefor:

(2) If any person who has been imprisoned under any sentence of imprisonment, or who is otherwise lawfully detained in any prison or house of detention, is, in the opinion of the Medical Officer of the prison or house of detention, as the case may be, in which such person is confined, of unsound mind or likely to become of unsound mind, the Governor may by warrant under his hand order such person to be removed to an asylum and to be detained there until the expiration of his sentence or period of detention or until further order.

3. Sub-sections 3 and 4 of section 15 of the Asylums Ordinance, 1906, are amended by the insertion of the words "or period of detention" immediately after the words "the expiration of his sentence" in each sub-section.

Objects and Reasons.

1. Section 15 (2) of the principal Ordinance (as enacted by section 8 of the Asylums Amendment Ordinance, 1927) provided only for the committal by order of the Governor to an asylum of prisoners under sentence who were certified by the prison Medical Officer to be of unsound mind.

2. Remand prisoners, detention prisoners and persons committed to the house of detention as vagrants were thus left outside the scope of this provision, as well as prisoners and persons detained who showed signs of insanity but could not be definitely certified as insane.

3. The present Bill remedies these defects.

height of buildings.

(5) No building on land leased from the Crown after the 21st February, 1903, shall be erected to a height exceeding the width of the street upon which it abuts.

(6) No building which does not fall within the provisions of paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4) or (5) of this section shall be erected or re-erected or raised to a height exceeding such height as the Building Authority may authorise, but in the case of a building on land abutting upon a street the Building Authority shall have no power to require such building to be of a less height than that specified in such of the fore-going paragraphs as would apply if such building had been so ar- ranged as to abut upon such street.

(7) No building shall exceed three storeys in height unless such building is constructed of fire resisting materials through- out and no domestic building shall exceed five storeys in height unless with the consent of the Governor in Council.

(8) 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 buildings 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 not exceeding twice the width of such narrower street as measured from the wider street.

(9) In the event of any building being hereafter erected or re-erected so as to abut upon more than 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 respectively abut.

88.-(1) Whenever it is practicable to do so the height determining of any building shall be determined 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 87.

Such full vertical height shall also be measured 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.

From the points thus determined on the two main walls, lines shall, in the case of buildings on land leased from the Crown prior to the 21st February, 1903, be drawn at angles of 68 degrees with the horizontal, and in the case of buildings on land leased from the Crown after the 21st February, 1903, lines shall be drawn at angles of 634 degrees with the horizon- tal, and any part of the building (except any chimney or party wall or any parapet wall not exceeding three feet in height) falling outside such lines shall be deemed illegal and no part of the building (except any chimney or party wall or any parapet wall not exceeding three feet in height) shall, in the case of buildings on land leased from the Crown prior to the 21st February, 1903, extend beyond a height measured from the level of the street upon which the building abuts, equal to twice the width of such street and in the case of buildings on land leased from the Crown after the 21st February, 1903, no part of the building shall extend beyond a height measured from the level of the street upon which it abuts equal to one and a half times the width of such street.

Provided that :-

1065

(a) In the case of a domestic building, erected on land leased from the Crown after the 21st February, 1903, any part of the building, in the rear of the nearest main wall of the same building opposite to the front main wall, may be erected to a height equal to the width of the street on which such building abuts but no portion whatsoever of such rear part of the building (except any chimney, party wall or parapet not exceeding three feet in height) shall extend beyond the beigh so determined.

(b) In the case of a domestic building erected on land leased from the Crown prior to 21st February, 1903, and which has no verandahs or balconies projecting over any street, any part of the building in the rear of the nearest main wall of the same building opposite to the front main wall, which does not extend more than half the width of the main building as measured on the rear main wall, may be erected to a height equal to one and a quarter times the width of the street on which such building abuts. From a point thus determined on the rear main wall of such rear part of the building a line may be drawn at an angle of 68° with the horizontal and no portion of this part of the building whatsoever (except any chimney, party wall or parapet not exceeding three feet in height) shall fall outside such line.

(c) In the case of any existing building which has no verandahs or balconies projecting over a street and which already exceeds in height one and a quarter times the width of the street upon which it abuts, the structure of the roof or any part thereof shall not be altered in such a manner that any portion of such structure shall fall outside lines drawn at angles of 68° with the horizontal from points determined by measuring on the line of the wall abutting upon the street and the nearest main wall opposite to such wall a vertical height equal to 11 times the width of the street upon which the building abuts.

(d) In the case of any existing building which has veran- dahs or balconies projecting over a street and which already exceeds in height the width of the street upon which it abuts, the structure of the roof or any part thereof shall not be altered in such a manner that any portion of such structure shall fall outside lines drawn at angles of 68° with the horizontal from points determined by measuring on the line of the wall abutting upon the street and the nearest main wall opposite to such wall a vertical height equal to the width of the street upon which the building abuts.

(e) In no case shall any building hereafter erected exceed five storeys in height or a total height of eighty feet unless with the consent of the Governor in Council.

(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) The full vertical height allowed by section 87 shall apply only for the width of the building so far as it abuts upon the street by which the height is regulated; and the height of any portion of the building which does not so abut shall be determined by the Building Authority.

(4) In any case which does not fall within the fore-going provisions the height of the buildings shall be determined in such manner as the Building Authority may direct.

[ss. 104 & 166.]

Drainage (including water closets and urinals) Regulations.

1. Nothing in these regulations shall affect any existing drain, sewer, water closet or urinal constructed and maintained in com- pliance with by-laws or regulations previously in force until such drain, sewer, water closet or urinal shall become defective.

2. In these regulations,

"

(a) Drain means any drain of and used for the drainage of one building only, or premises within the same curtilage, and made merely for the purpose of communicating therefrom with a cesspool or other like receptacle for drainage, or with a sewer into which the drainage of two or more buildings or premises occupied by different persons is conveyed, and main drain means the whole of such drain excluding any branches thereof.

(b) Sewer includes sewers and drains of every description except drains to which the word drain interpreted as aforesaid applies.

3. Any owner or occupier of private premises about to construct, reconstruct, alter or amend any drain shall give the notice and for- ward the plans required by section 6 of the Buildings Ordinance, 1934. Such plans must show the whole of the drainage works pro- posed to be carried out, the diameter of the pipes, their gradient and their connexion to the main drain, sewer, channel or nullah, and also the levels and sizes of any existing drains crossed by or adjacent to such new drains. Copies of Schedule A in English and Chinese. may be obtained gratis on application at the office of the Building Authority, or, in the case of the villages, at any village police station between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.:

Provided that when drainage works are being carried out in conjunction with other works it shall only be necessary to forward one form as set out in Schedule A, which must however contain particulars of the whole of the works including such drainage works.

1101

Note. The approval of plans by the Building Authority under these regulations certifies simply to the fact that the plans are in accordance with the Buildings Ordinance, 1934, and with the re- gulations made thereunder, but signifies no approval of the sufficiency or otherwise of the plan and throws no responsibility on the Build- ing Authority.

4. Any person carrying out excavations for drainage works on any premises contiguous to a public thoroughfare, whereby the safety of the public may be jeopardized, shall light such excavations by means of a lantern or lanterns kept lighted through the night, and he shall further provide watchmen, erect hoardings and otherwise take such precautions as may be necessary for securing the safety of the public and the protection of adjoining properties.

5. Covered drains and sewers shall be made of impervious materials, to be approved by the Building Authority, with smooth internal surfaces, such as well glazed earthenware pipes or cast-iron pipes protected against rust or corrosion by suitable asphaltic coat- ing, and shall be so constructed as to be water-tight and air-tight. In jointing pipes with cement, tarred hemp shall be caulked into the joints before the cement is applied, and care shall be taken that no cement or other jointing material projects from the joints into the interior of the pipes, and any such projecting material or other irregularities in the bore of the drain or sewer shall be carefully removed.

6. All drains and sewers shall be laid so as to have a firm bed throughout their length. Where the bottom of the trench is in rock or similar hard substance, the pipes shall be firmly bedded in suitable selected material free from large stones and well rammed into place. Where such drains or sewers are laid under a wall, they shall be protected by means of a relieving arch.

7. All stone-ware pipes shall be well glazed and free from cracks and flaws and shall have a thickness of not less than one-twelfth of their diameter.

8. That portion of the drain of any building which is immedi- ately connected with any sewer shall (unless specially exempted by the Building Authority) be provided with a suitable and efficient intercepting trap at a point situate on the ground of the owner of the drain as distant as may be practicable from such building and as near as may be practicable to the point at which such drain is connected with such sewer. Adequate means of access shall be provided to every drain by a manhole or disconnecting chamber or other means of access to be approved by the Building Authority for the purpose of cleansing the drain. All manhole and disconnecting chambers shall be constructed of brickwork at least nine inches in thickness built in cement mortar so as to be water tight up to the level of the adjacent ground and every drain or sewer connecting into such manhole or disconnecting chamber shall be continued along the floor of the chamber by means of open half- channel pipes set in a bed of cement concrete. The surface of the concrete shall be raised above the edges of the half-channel pipes and shall be floated with neat cement all over so as to present a smooth and impervious surface. Where tributary drains are con- nected to the main channel the manhole bottom shall be benched up in cement concrete at an angle of forty-five degrees and finished at the channel with a bull nose edge and such tributary drains shall be formed by means of curved half-channels similarly laid in the benching and made to discharge over the main channel.

All manhole and disconnecting chambers shall be fitted with air. tight covers and frames to be approved by the Building Authority.

9. All covered drains and sewers shall be laid in straight lines and regular gradients between the points at which any change of direction occurs, and all changes of direction shall be made by means of properly curved pipes or by half channels in manholes.

10. Concrete for encasing drains or sewers shall be composed of four parts of good sound clean stone, broken to pass through a one inch ring, two parts of sand and one part of Portland cement thoroughly well mixed and well rammed into place or of such other materials and in such proportions as the Building Authority may

approve.

1102

11. Cement-mortar for the jointing of pipes or any other work shall be mixed in the proportions of not more than three parts of clean sharp sand to one part of good Portland cement and used fresh.

12. No covered drain or sewer shall be less than four inches in clear internal diameter, but the Building Authority may require any covered drain or sewer to be constructed of a larger diameter..

13. Subject to the limitation mentioned in regulation No. 12 of these regulations, no drain or sewer shall be larger than is neces- sary in the opinion of the Building Authority to carry off the sewage of the premises drained or the sewage with the rain-water, which, under conditions hereinafter specified in regulations Nos. 35, 36 and 37 of these regulations, shall be admitted to the drain.

14. Every drain or sewer shall have the maximum fall, throughout its length, that the relative levels of the public sewer and of the most remote inlet will admit of:

Provided always-

(a) that, if the available fall exceeds 1 in 30, the part of the drain or sewer more remote from the public sewer may be laid with a fall of 1 in 30; and the remainder, with such greater fall as may be necessary to connect with the public sewer;

(b) that, if the excavation necessary to obtain the maximum available fall, is likely in the opinion of the Building Authority to endanger the stability of the adjoining or neighbouring property, the gradient may be modified to such extent as the Building Authority. may approve.

15. Whenever the available fall for a covered drain or sewer is less than 1 in 30, the Building Authority may require the gradient of the drain or sewer to be varied by increasing such gradient in the upper portion of such drain or sewer and by reducing it in the re- maining portions.

16. Whenever the gradient of any portion of a covered drain or sewer is less than 1 in 30, the Building Authority may require an automatic flush tank or any other suitable contrivance for attaining an effective flush to be provided to his satisfaction.

17. No drain or sewer shall be so constructed as to pass under any domestic building except when any other mode of construction is impracticable. Any drain or sewer passing under a building shall be of cast-iron pipes coated inside with Dr. Angus Smith's patent composition, or of other material approved by the Building Authority, and all such pipes shall be of a quality to be approved by the Build- ing Authority and the joints shall be properly caulked and run with lead, and (unless the written permission of the Building Authority has first been obtained to lay the drain or sewer otherwise) shall be laid in one straight line for the whole distance beneath such build- ing, and shall be imbedded and encased throughout its entire length in four inches of concrete as specified in regulation No. 10 of these regulations.

18. Whenever a covered drain or sewer traverses soft or yield- ing ground, or when water may make its appearance in the trench, the drain or sewer shall be surrounded throughout its entire length with not less than four inches of concrete as specified in regulation No. 10 of these regulations.

19. No drain or sewer shall be constructed in such manner as to allow any inlet to such drain or sewer to be placed inside any roofed building, (except such inlet as may be necessary from the apparatus of any water closet or urinal):

Provided that, if in the opinion of the Building Authority it is impracticable to comply with this regulation in respect of any pre- mises without encroaching on unleased Crown land, the Building Authority shall, on payment by the owner of such premises of a fee of twenty dollars, construct an inlet on Crown land to receive the drainage of such premises and connect such inlet with a sewer. The cost of cleansing and maintaining such inlet shall thereafter be borne by the owner for the time being of the said premises, and may be recovered by the Building Authority from such owner by an action in the Supreme Court in its summary jurisdiction.

1103

20. The aggregate area of the openings in any grating fixed on the inlet to a waste-pipe from a bath or sink shall not be less than four square inches and such waste-pipe shall not have a less internal diameter than one and a half inches.

21. Every inlet to a drain or sewer shall be provided with a trap of a pattern to be approved by the Building Authority. All surface traps and gulleys shall be provided with hinged gratings having the nett area of the openings not less than twice the area of the trap or pipe. Such gratings shall be sunk to a depth of at least one inch below the surrounding surface with a slope round them equal to half the width of the grating.

22. Traps shall have not less than two inches of water seal and shall be properly fixed and jointed to the satisfaction of the Building Authority. All stone-ware traps shall be surrounded with four inches of concrete as specified in regulation No. 10 of these re- gulations.

23. No person shall construct or fix in connexion with any drain or waste-pipe the form of trap of the kind known as the bell- trap or any trap of the kind known as the D trap.

24. Every covered main drain or sewer carrying sewage or sullage-water shall be ventilated at its upper end by carrying up in the open air an iron ventilating pipe of a diameter of not less than four inches to a height of not less than three feet above the eaves of the building to which it is affixed or of any of the immediately adjoining buildings, and clear of all windows, sky-lights or other openings as required by the Building Authority. The joints of all such pipes shall be properly caulked and run with lead.

25. Every covered main drain or sewer carrying sewage or sullage-water shall, if required by the Building Authority, have a ventilating opening near to its lower end and in the open air, and no trap or other obstruction to the free circulation of air shall exist be- tween this opening and the one described in regulation No. 24 of these regulations.

When a covered main drain receives the drainage of more than one building, the Building Authority may require additional provision for ventilation of the branch drain from each building.

26. All eaves-gutters shall be of cast-iron or other material approved by the Building Authority and shall be securely fixed at a proper gradient and connected to rain-water pipes to the satisfaction of the Building Authority.

27. Rain-water pipes and waste-pipes from baths, sinks and other similar appliances on the upper floors of buildings shall be fixed, as far as may be practicable, vertically, and shall be of cast- iron socketed pipes jointed with yarn and red lead, or wrought-iron pipes, with screwed joints, coated with bituminous composition, or galvanised, or pipes of other approved materials, securely fixed outside the wall, and in the open air, by means of heavy wrought-iron bands fitted round the pipe, and made fast with wrought-iron spikes not less than four inches long, or in the case of iron pipes by means of ears, made fast as above described and provided, at each point of con- nexion, with a suitable head, and at their lower extremity with a bend, shoe, or pedestal pipe. Every opening in the wall of a build- ing for the discharge of sullage-water shall be of a suitable size and entirely protected to the satisfaction of the Building Authority by a fixed grating of cast-iron or other material to be approved by the Building Authority.

Provided that in the case of rain-water pipes and waste-pipes abutting on any street, cast-iron or wrought-iron pipes only shall be used, properly jointed as above described, (unless permission has been granted by the Building Authority to use pipes of other mate- rial), and wherever practicable rain-water pipes shall be carried under the foot-path and shall discharge into the side-channel.

Note.-Zinc, tin-plate, riveted or lap-jointed sheet-iron will not be permitted.

.

1104

28. No waste-pipe (other than a soil pipe from a water closet

or urinal) and no rain-water pipe shall be connected directly with any covered drain, but every such pipe shall be brought down to within one foot from the ground and shall discharge in the open air near to or over a trap.

29. No rain-water pipe from the roof of a building shall be used as a ventilating pipe for any drain which communicates or is de- signed to communicate with a sewer.

30. Any person who may have laid any drain or sewer or con- structed drainage works connected therewith shall not cover up such drain sewer or works until the same shall have been previously in- spected and passed by the Building Authority or an officer deputed by him, and every such person shall give three clear days written. notice to such Authority that such drain or sewer or works are ready for inspection, and such notice shall be delivered at the office of the Building Authority in a form of which printed copies in English and Chinese may be obtained gratis on application at the office of the Building Authority, or, in the case of villages, at any police station. between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. : Provided that in all cases where plans or a notice signed by an authorised architect have been submitted under regulation No. 3 of these regulations, the notice referred to in this regulation shall, if the Building Authority so requires, be signed by an authorised architect.

31. Before any drain or sewer is covered in, it shall be inspect- ed and tested by the Building Authority or an officer deputed by him to ascertain whether it is water-tight and air-tight; and no drain or sewer that fails in either of these respects shall be passed. A fee of twenty dollars shall be paid by the person who signs the notice referred to in regulation No. 30 of these regulations for every inspec- tion after the first if the Building Authority is satisfied that such further inspection has been necessitated by negligence or by bad workmanship or the use of improper materials. After a drain or sewer has been passed, the earth shall be carefully filled in, above and around the drain or sewer, and thoroughly rammed and con- solidated. For a depth of at least six inches above the summit of the sockets of the pipes, selected material, free from stones larger than will pass through a two inch ring, shall be used in filling in the trench.

32. Surface channels shall be constructed of impervious mate- rials to be approved by the Building Authority and of such section as the Building Authority may approve, and shall be finished off smooth and laid to regular gradients of not less than 1 in 80 unless the Building Authority shall permit a less gradient.

33. The floors of all kitchens, sculleries, bathrooms, stables, cow- sheds and the like, shall, where practicable, be laid to proper falls, and shall be elevated above the ground outside the building, and shall be provided with surface channels passing out through the wall and delivering above a trapped gulley outside. When new drains are being laid and where the floor is at the level of the ground out- side, such surface channel shall be connected to a trap outside the house by a straight pipe terminating above the water level and below the grating of the trap, which shall be accessible and in free com- munication with the open air. Every such opening in the wall shall be of a suitable size and entirely protected by a fixed grating, at its upper end, to the satisfaction of the Building Authority.

34. All surfaces of backyards and paved areas of premises wherever practicable shall have a fall towards the trap or inlet of the drain of not less than 1 in 40, and such inlet shall be placed as far from the walls as practicable.

35. Open surfaces such as backyards, courtyards or other spaces on which slops are thrown, or from which foul water flow, shall be provided with trapped connexions to the covered drains for the re- moval of such waters as well as some of the rain-water.

36. Wherever an outlet is available, surface channels shall be provided to carry excessive rainfall from the premises, and these channels shall be properly connected with a storm water-channel or drain. As many four inch traps as the Building Authority may approve shall be placed in such surface channels and connected with the covered drains for the purpose of flushing the sewers.

1105

M

37. The rain-water from roofs which slope towards inclosed courtyards or backyards may, if diversion to the surface channel is impracticable, be received into the covered drains, but no ventilat- ing pipe shall be used for the conveyance of rain-water from the roof.

38. No person shall, where it can possibly be avoided, lay any pipe for conveying sub-soil drainage in such manner or in such position as to communicate directly with any sewer, cesspool, or covered drain used for the conveyance or reception of sewage.

39. In every case where the course of a drain or sewer shall be diverted, any cesspool previously existing and into which such drain or sewer may have previously emptied, shall be cleansed, deo- dorized and filled with clean earth.

40. Every water-closet and urinal in a building shall, unless exempted by the Building Authority, be constructed against an external wall, and all apparatus shall be fixed as near to such external wall as in the opinion of the Building Authority is practicable.

50. All works connected with the construction of drains, sewers, and connexions shall be carried out in strict accordance with the plans and sections previously submitted to and approved by the Building Authority, or with such amendments to such plans and sections as may have been required by him, to make them comply with the provisions of the Buildings Ordinance, 1934, and such works shall be carried out in a proper and workmanlike manner with the best materials of their respective kinds, and shall be subject during their progress to the control and supervision of the officers of the Building Authority appointed in that behalf and shall be completed to the entire satisfaction of the Building Authority.

Notice to abate a building nuisance.

OFFICE OF THE BUILDING AUTHORITY,

HONG KONG,

19......

To A.B.,

It has been brought to my attention that a nuisance exists

your situated

which contravenes section

Lot No.

viz.:

of the Buildings Ordinance,

1934. I have therefore to give you notice under the said Ordinance

to abate the nuisance within a period expiring on

by

(Signed)

Building Authority.

Objects and Reasons.

1. One of the recommendations in the Report of the Director of Medical and Sanitary Services on the need for re-organization of the Medical and Sanitary Services is that Regulations regarding the construction of buildings should come under a Buildings Ordinance.

2. Hitherto this subject has been dealt with under the Public Health and Buildings Ordinance (No. 1 of 1903).

3. It is felt that there are disadvantages in mixing provi- sions as to the design and construction of buildings, which concern mainly the Public Works Department, with provisions relating to house-cleansing and the prevention of disease, which are the special concern of the Sanitary and Medical Depart-

ments.

4. This Ordinance extracts from Ordinance No. 1 of 1903 (which it is intended shortly to repeal and replace by another Ordinance or Ordinances dealing with Sanitation and the Pre- vention of Disease) those provisions which deal with the con- struction of buildings and concern the Public Works Depart- ment and amends them where amendment is considered necessary.

5. A Table of Correspondence attached to the Bill shews the origin of its various clauses and the nature of the amend- ments.

December, 1934.

persons.

Objects and Reasons.

1. As a result of the increase in the number of His Majesty's Naval and Military Forces in Hong Kong in 1927 the Young Men's Christian Association of Hong Kong was requested by its Head Office in London to provide additional facilities for the entertainment and recreation of His Majesty's Forces in the Colony of Hong Kong.

2. As a result of such request the Young Men's Christian Association of Hong Kong with the help of a Committee of local ladies issued an appeal for funds with the result that premises were obtained for the purpose of providing recrea- tional facilities for His Majesty's Forces.

3. The original Committee consisted of three Directors of the Young Men's Christian Association and three other members appointed by the General Public of Hong Kong assisted by a Ladies' Advisory Committee.

4. The premises first obtained were at the corner of Queen's Building in the premises formerly occupied by the Banque Franco Chinoise." Later the City Hall Committee granted accommodation in the City Hall and from that date until the City Hall was condemned as unsafe, facilities for dancing, writing, whist drives and other amusements were carried on under the name of the Cheero Club and proved of the greatest service in providing recreation of the above description for members of His Majesty's Forces.

1146

5. On the closing of the City Hall the Club fell into abeyance for lack of accommodation and in the Autumn of 1933 an appeal was made for sufficient funds to enable new premises to be erected to carry on the work so successfully inaugurated by the Old Cheero Club under the Auspices of the Young Men's Christian Association.

6. The appeal was successful in raising over $41,000 which was sufficient to pay for the erection and furnishing of a building on a site which had been granted by Government at the corner of Murray Parade Ground which had been handed back to Government by the Secretary of State for War on the understanding that it was to be used for the benefit of men of His Majesty's Forces and such land is now vested in the Young Men's Christian Association.

7. As a result of meetings between representatives of the Young Men's Christian Association and of Subscribers to the fund and members of the Old Ladies' Advisory Com- mittee it was decided that the premises should be used by the Cheero Club and that it was for the benefit of that Club that the Club should be incorporated under an Ordinance so as to give it perpetual succession.

8. This Bill follows the lines of other Incorporation Ordinances of the same kind.
