(

Hon. Colonial Secretary,

I have carefully considered your question

how the difficulties the Secretary of State has raised on

Ordinance 11 of 1906 can be met.

I think the best course is to follow the

advice which I tendered in my minute of 4th. November, 1902.

That will get rid of that part of Ordinance 11 of 1903 which

the Secretary of State directs us to repeal and at the same

time free us from the rest of 11 of 1902. As to repealing

section 8 of 21 of 1901 that might stand till the Secretary of

State has considered the reasons advanced in my minute of 4th.

November, 1802.

6th. January, 1903.

(Sd.) H. S. Berkeley,

Attorney-General.
