Objects and Reasons.
This Ordinance amends the Fire Brigade Ordinance, 1923, by introducing provisions similar to those con- tained in the Naval Establishments Police Ordinance, 1875, with regard to offences such as misconduct as a member of the Brigade, desertion and retention of kit, of too serious a nature to be adequately dealt with under the fines and stoppages from pay authorised by the principal Ordinance. This Ordinance also contains a section based on section 24 of the Police Force Ordinance, 1911, dealing with dismissal and extends the powers of the Governor in Council as to the pay- ment of gratuities which under the principal Ordinance are limited to extraordinary services performed in cases of fire.
