A BILL
ENTITLED
An Ordinance to further amend the Summary
Offences Ordinance, 1845.
BE it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Commeil thereof, as follows:-
"
1. This Ordinance may be cited as The Summary and construc- Offences Amendment Ordinance, 1911," and it shall be read and construed as one with the Summary Offences Ordinance 1845, hereinafter called "the Principal Or- dinance", and the Ordinances amending the same.
Repeals see- tion 11 of
Ordinance
No. 1 of 1845
and substi-
Tutes another
section therefor.
Penalties for violation of Sections 9 and 10.
2. Section 11 of the Principal Ordinance is hereby repealed and there shall be substituted the following:-
1-(1.) Every person who violates, disobeys, or fails to comply with any of the provisions of section 9 shall be liable to a penalty not exceeding fifty dollars, besides the expenses of the removal of the building or thing oc cupied or erected.
(2) Every person who violates, disobeys, or fails to comply with any of the provisions of section 10 shall be liable to a penalty not exceeding five dollars.**
Objects and Reasons.
Section 9 of the Principal Ordinance in the Revised Edition was taken from section 20 of Ordinance No. 8 of 1858 and by section 28 of that Ordinance offenders against section 20 were liable to a penalty of fifty dollars besides the expenses of re noval. In the Revised Edition the penalty was, evidently by mistake, changed to five dollars only. This Bill corrects the mistake.
