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.
