REGE 20 DEC 00,
15th November 1900.
Report on Ordinance 3 of 1900.
I hace examined the accompanying Ordinance, entitled
An Ordinance to provide against
smoking in certain Naval Military premiver,
ama
and I am of opinion that the Ordinance is one which is not contrary to
the Governor's Instructions.
This Ordinance is intended to provide a sufficient penalty against smoking in certain places where, considering the nature of the stores and property, such practice is most reprehensible and dangerous.
It is brought forward at the request of the Naval and Military Authorities who have pointed out that, while the value of the property endangered is very large, the law has hitherto provided no punishment for the offence.
