Explanatory Note.

These regulations provide for the issuing of certificates of origin for which no previous legislative authority oxisted other than that conferred by the Merchandize Marks Ordinance. The regulations will enable the Director of Commerce and Industry to continue to issue the existing form of certificate and will also permit him to issue the certificates in any mure comprehensive form as may seem desirable to facilitate the importation of Hong Kong produced goods into the United States of America where stringent regulations governing the origin of imported goods have recently been introduced.

In addition to the penalty imposed by regulation 5 the penalties prescribed by section 6(3) of the Importation and Exportation Ordinance (Chapter 50) are also applicable in respect of false statements or declara. tips made on false information furnished for the purpose of obtaining a certificate of origin.
