on the subject of the Sand Ordinance No.41 of 1934, and
to inform you that on consideration of the points mentioned in that despatch it has been deemed advisable to repeal the

which is enclosed. My Executive Council has approved the
introduction of this bill in the Legislative Council but
I have considered it desirable to submit the bill for your
approval before its introduction.
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient, humble servant,
