and two Puisne Judges with a Proviso that one Puisne Judge only should be appointed until the increase in the Business of the Court should render it expedient to appoint the second one.

The Ordinance would regulate the Powers of the Judges Especially with reference to the Period during which one Puisne Judge only might be on the Bench, and with regard to this point. I am of opinion that until there are three Judges the Decision of the Chief Justice should prevail in all matters. The Draft Ordinance Establishes a different Rule as to Motions for a new Trial &c (see Section 7.) but I do not think this is desirable.

There should also be some Provision in the Ordinance distinctly conferring on the Chief Justice the Power to regulate the Distribution of the Business before the Court.
