Ordinance No. 10 of 1899, n.4 (18).

to this section.

14.

Similar remarks apply

Ordinance No. 40 of 1909, 8.59. The corresponding section

of the English Act has not been repealed.

15.

Ordinance No. 35 of 1911, sections 10, 11 and 12. The cor-

responding sections in the English Act have been repealed wholly

or in part, but it is more difficult to disentangle the forgery

provisions from section 10 of the above Ordinance than from the

corresponding section in the English Act. Besides, leaving the

sections standing makes the Ordinance more complete. On the

whole it was decided not to touch these three sections.

16. Ordinance Fo. 30 of 1915, s. 39 and 52. Section 39 deals

with offences relating to passage tickets other than the forging

of tickets. Paragrash (b) of section 52 right have been re-

pealed, but it makes the Ordinance more complete to leave these

two sections untouched.

17.

Ordinance No. 2 of 1916, 8.2.

It seemed better not to

deal with the question of false passports.

18.

This section was allowed

Ordinance No. 27 of 191", B.2.

to stand because it appears that the possession of the wrappers and

labels would not be an offence under the present Ordinance, though

possession of the dies would be an offence.

10.

With reference to the ouses in which an offence under the

Ordinance would also be an offence under terms of some other en-

actment, attention is directed to section 17(2), which provides

that in such a case proceedings may be taken either under the ordi-

nance or under the other enactment.

20.

In my opinion this is an Ordinance to which His Excellency the

Governor may properly assent in the name of His Majesty and on His

behalf.

Attorney General
