Public will be protected against vexatious proceedings through the operation of the last Section which provides that prosecutions under the Ordinance cannot be instituted without the consent of the Attorney Generals.

4.

It may perhaps be suggested that this Ordinance is unnecessary. Nevertheless, it is of great importance that the Government should be armed with adequate powers to suppress the abuses at which this Ordinance is aimed, during the period that will elapse before the other enactment comes into operation, having regard to the more comprehensive measure about to be introduced which was submitted for Your Lordship's consideration in my Despatch of the 18th January.

And I may at once admit that after the passing of that Bill I do not anticipate much need for the "Fighting Ordinance". Hence, I very confidently solicit Your Lordship's approval of the Ordinance, and trust that it will receive Your Majesty's gracious allowance and confirmation.

I have the honour to be, My Lord, Your Lordship's most obedient humble servant,

[Name of Governor]

Governor.
