Explanatory Note.

(This Note is not part of the rules, but is intended

to indicate their general purport).

These rules are taken without substantial modification, from the Accountant Cerificate Rules, 1946, made by the Law Society under the Solicitors Act, 1941. The rules lay down the qualification which an accountant must hold to coable him to furnish a certificate required by a solicitor under section B of the Legal Practitioners Ordinance, 1964, the duties of an accountant in issuing such certificate, the form of the certificate and the requirements, in regard to account- ing periods, for such certificates and enable the Incorporated Law Society of Hong Kong to withdraw recognition under the rules from an accountant. These rules will not come into operation until section # of the Ordinance is brought into operation,
