2. As a consequence of such doubts various persons had been parties to divorce proceedings initiated, continued, or concluded before the Supreme Court at Stanley during the period of enemy occupation, have re-commenced proceedings before the Supreme Court in the years 1946 and 1947,

3. In the case of Dalziel v. Dalziel commencement of new proceedings in Divorce is not practicable for the reason that the Petitioner, in reliance on the full validity of the proceedings concluded before the Supreme Court at Stanley, has re-married.

4. The object of this Bill is, therefore, to provide by statute for the removal of any doubts regarding the validity of decrees granted in the case Dalziel v. Dalziel by the Supreme Court at Stanley and by such means formally to confirm and declare the validity of such Decrees.

J. B. GRIFFIN,

Attorney General.
