Objects and Reasons.
1. This Ordinance substitutes a new section for section 32 of the principal Ordinance which made provision for the appointment by the Governor, on the application of any householder, of any member of the force to do special police duty in and upon the premises of the applicant on payment for the same of the whole of the pay and allowances of the member of the force so appointed.
2. Applications for such services are not always made by householders, they are sometimes made by clubs or institutions on occasions where such services are required.
3. The detailing of members of the force for such pur- poses seems rather a matter for the Inspector General of Police than for the Governor.
4. Moreover, the provision as to the payment of the whole of the pay and allowances of a member of the force who might be detailed only for a few hours special duty seems unreasonably restrictive.
