C

Report on Ordinance No.... 9.

of 190

I have examined the accompanying Ordinance, entitled

со

21074

RECO

57

REG 11 JUL 10.

An Ordinance to amend the Pharmacy Ordinance, 1908

and I am of opinion that the Ordinance is one which is not contrary to

the Governor's Instructions

This Ordinance amends the Pharmacy Ordinance, 1908,

by authorising the issue of search warrants, the enforcement of

forfeiture and heavier penalties in respect of especially danger-

-Jus drugs such as cocaine. The sections dealing with search -- warrants, forfeitures and informers are modelled on those contained

in the Opium Ordinance and by section 9 special provisions are

inserted to guard against vexatious use being made of the powe es

given by the Ordinance
