Explanatory Note.
(This Note is not part of the order, but is intended to indicate its general purport).
Because of the prevalence of rinderpest amongst animals in Thailand and Cambodia (Khmer Republic), the import of cattle, swine, sheep and goals from those countries without a permit from the Chairman of the Urban Council was prohibited in 1954. Rinderpest has since been eradicated in these two countries and restrictions of import are therefore no longer necessary. This order cancels the orders by which the prohibition was imposed,
