Memoon. Of on. Ordre No7.
I think that the Ordinance goes
too far in one direction, and that the Chief
Justice's Bill goes too far in the other.
The compromise which we intended, and which
J
still think is reasonable, is
(1) that there should be an enquiry
before a Judge;
(2) that the Judge should have complete
control of the enquiry, both as to its
conduct and to the procedure;
(3) that the Judge should be entitled to
hear such evidence, whether hearsay or not, on
either side as he thinks proper, and give it
such weight as he considers it deserves;
and
(4) that the Judge should not recommend
whether the person ought to be deported, which
should be a matter for the Governor: he should
report whether the allegations are, in his view,
proved.
