Report by the Attorney GENERAL ON ORDINANCE 7/1880.
ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE.
22nd May, 1890.
I have examined the accompanying Ordinance, entitled
An Ordinance to amend the Law with reference to the Falsification of Accounts,
and I am of opinion that the Ordinance is one which is not contrary to the Governor's Instructions.
This is simply the English Act 38 Vict. C.24, enacted in this Colony, as I found it was not in force here, though required.
(Signed) W. Meigh Goodman,
Attorney General,
