Explanatory Note.

(This Nore is not part of the by-laws, but is intended to indicate their general purport).

The cemeteries specified in Part II of the Fifth Schedule to the Public Health and Urban Services Ordinance, 1960 are held, under deeds of grant, by special communities or associations for the burial of their members. Although they were designated as authorized open cemeteries under section 73 of the repealed Public Health (Sanitation) Ordinance, 1933, they are not public cemeteries and have always been under the direction of private committees of managemcot. The provisions which are necessary in respect of public cemeteries are not appropriate for these private cemeteries, and these by-laws merely seek to ensure that graves in private cemeteries are properly marked and registered and that nuisances will not be arise from improper methods of burial." They also prescribe the fee which is payable on the grant by the Council under sec- tion 115(2) of the Ordinance of permission to exhoric human remains from any such cemetery.
