Explanatory Note.
(This Note is not part of the regulations, but is intended to indicate their general purport).
Under the Deportation of Allens Ordinance, Chapter 240, the Governor in Council may issue deportation orders against aliens in cortain circonutances. The purpose of these regulations is to provide an alterna- tive course by enabling the Governor in Council to order the detention of any person liable to deportation under that Ordinance where he is satisfied that a deportation order would not be capable of enforcement and it would be contrary to the public interest that such person should remain at large. The power to make such detention orders in conferred by regulation 2.
2. Regulation 3 provides for the detention of persons against whom a detention order is made.
3. Regulation allows the Governor in Council to suspend a detention order and issue a deportation order where he is satisfied that arrangements have been made for the departure from the Colony of the person concerned, or to suspend a detention order subject to conditions.
d. Regulation 5 provides for the setting up of Committees of Review to consider objections to detention orders and to make recommendations to the Governor in Council with respect to such objections.
