Section 9 of the principal Ordinance is repealed and replaced by the following-

"Application

monwealth.

9. (3) The Governor in Council may by order direct to the Com- that the provisions of this Ordinance shall apply to any part of the Commonwealth and to judgments obtained in the superior courts of such part, as they apply to foreign countries and judgments obtained in the superior courts of foreign countries; and upon the making of any such order the provisions of the Judgments (Facilities for Enforcement) Ordinance shall cease to have effect except in relation to such part of the Commonwealth to which it extends at the date of the order.

( the expression "judgment" included an award in proceedings on an arbitration if the award bas, in pursuance of the law in force in the place where it was made, become enforceable in the same manner as a judgment given by a court in that place;

(ii) the fact that a judgment was given before the coming into operation of the order did not prevent such judgment from being a judgment to which the provisions of this Ordinance apply, but the time limited for the registration of a judgment so given was twelve months from the date of the judgment or such longer period as may be allowed by the Supreme Court; and

(iii) any judgment registered in the Supreme Court under the provisions of the Judgments (Facilities for Enforcement) Ordinance before the coming into operation of the order had been

(Cap. 91.

registered in that court under the provisions of this Ordinance and anything done in relation thereto under the provisions of the Judgments (Facilities for Enforcement) Ordinance or any rules of court or other provisions applicable thereto had been done under the provisions of this Ordinance or the corresponding rules of court or other provisions applicable thereto.”.

This printed impression has been carefully compared by me with the Bill which passed the Legislative Council on the 6th day of May, 1964, and is found by me to be a true and correctly printed copy of the said Bill.
