1. Clause 2 of this Bill amends the definitions of Dairy, Dairyman and Milk Shop. The new definitions of "Dairy" and "Dairyman" are practically identical with the similar definitions in the Milk and Dairies (Consolidation) Act, 1915 (5 and 6 Geo. 5, c. 66). In the light of the experience gained since the passing of the Ordinance it is considered that the new definitions are more suitable to the conditions in the Colony.
