SUMMARY OFFENCES AMENDT BILL, 1940
4
4
Clause 2.
Hon. Mr. J.J. Paterson
I would like to know if ferries are included under this Bill?
The Attorney General.
Spitting on ferries is covered under the ferries
by-laws.
Hon. Mr.J.J. Paterson.
The President.
I think it would make it stronger if it was inserted in this Bill. People have a habit of spitting up wind over the sides of ferries, and if you happen to be down wind it is very unpleasant.
Will you move that amendment, Mr Paterson?
Hon. Mr.J.J.Paterson.
Yes, Sir. I move that the words "or ferries" be inserted after the word "vehicle".
Hon. Sir H. Pollock.
I will Second the Motion.
The amendment was agreed to.
Council then resumed.
The Attorney General.
The President.
I have to report that the Summay Offences Amendt Bill has passed through Committee with one amendment the inclusion of the words "or ferries" after the word "vehicle" in Clause 2. If the President will rule that the amendment is not material I can move the third reading of the Bill at this meeting.
I rule that the Amendment is not material.
The Financial Secretary, seconded, and the Bill was read a third time and
passed.
