The object of this Ordinance is to define more clearly the procedure requisite for the admission of pa- tients into mental asyluma, and to ensure, so far as possible, that the removal of a patient to an asylum shall not take place without notice to the patient's relatives.
Section 2 of this' Ordinance in- serts in the principal Ordinance, No. 6 of 1906, a new section 4 which gives the Governor in Council power to make regulations for Various purposes connected with the objects of the Asylums Ordinance.

The Insistence on the use of definite sta- tutory forms will undoubtedly tend to greater strictness and parti cularity. A draft containing the proposed forms is published with this draft Ordinance. The oppor- tunity is taken to make it clear that the seven days detention for the purpose of observation shall date from and including the date of the
order.
Section 4 of this Ordinance also deals with the same point of the exact duration of the period of de tention for observation, and it amends section 8 of the principal Ordinance on this point.
Section 5 of this Ordinance makes two technical amendments in sec- tion 9 of the principal Ordinance. These amendments are necessary because the forms will in future be
