Interesting Appeal Case Brought By The Crown

Mr Justice J. Reynolds, Acting Puisne Judge, was asked in the Appeal Court this morning to decide whether the milling and grinding of rice in domestic premises constituted an “agricultural operation”.

The appeal before his Lordship was brought by the Crown against a decision of Mr I. T. Morris Kowloon Magistrate, who held that the pro prietor of the Tong Foong Rice Refinery, of 6 Fa Yuen Street, ground Abor, had no case to answer on a summons for allegedly using the pre- mises as a factory, contrary to section 7 of the Factories and Workshops Ordinance, Cap. 59.
