SIR CECIL SPRING-RICE.
HEREAS by Section 17 of the Medical Act, 1886,
it
is provided (amongst other things) that His Majesty may from time to time by Order in Council declare that the second part of the said Act shall be deemed, on and after a day to be named in such Order, to apply to any British possession, which in the opinion of His Majesty affords to the registered medical practitioners of the United Kingdom such privileges of practising in the said British possession as to His Majesty may seem just, and that from and after the day named in such Order in Council such British possession shall be deemed to be a British possession to which the said Act applies, within the meaning of the second part thereof, and that until such Order in Council has been made in respect of any British possession, the said second part of the said Act shall not be deemed to apply to any such possession.
And whereas the Colony of Hong Kong is a British possession within the meaning of the said Act, and in the opinion of His Majesty affords to the registered medical practitioners of the United Kingdom such privileges of practising in the said Colony as to His Majesty seem just:
NOW, THEREFORE, His Majesty doth hereby, by and with the advice of His Privy Council, order and declare that on and after the First day of April, 1913, the second part of the Medical Act, 1886, shall be deemed to apply to the Colony of Hong Kong.
