MESS 22 WR ||
ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE.
Hongkong, 28th March,19/1.
Report on Ordinance No.. 8
...of 19//.
I hace examined the accompanying Ordinance, entitled
An Ordinance to further amend the Pawnbrokers
Ordinances, 1860 and 1902
and I am of opinion that the Ordinance is one which is not contrary to
the Governor's Instructions.
--
Ordinance No. 21 of 1902 in this Ordinance called the Amend- -ing Ordinance was passed before the Revised Edition of the laws by Sir J. Carrington was published. It repealed section 15 of Ordinance 3 of 1860, which was then the Principal Ordinance, and substituted a proviso therefor. The proviso does not render in- -telligible the corresponding sections (sections 12 and 16) of No. 1 of 1860 in the Revised Edition.
Sections 2 and 3 of the
Ordinance are accordingly introduced to make the whole intelligible.
