Colonial Certificates - If however they fail in their first examination they are charged the usual Fees for subsequent attempt to pass. Further, Colonial Vessels are allowed to clear from the United Kingdom without production of any Certificates for the Masters or mates if they are bound to their own Colony as their ultimate destination, notwithstanding that they may touch at other places or Countries before arriving there.
Lastly, I am to point out that the Imperial Act requiring the production of Certificates only applies to Vessels entering Ports in the United Kingdom and leaving, and that consequently there is nothing in that Act to prevent a Vessel clearing.
