In the case of Foreign Countries the Government of those Countries

I of those countries applie

For

Extradition, and I think the same rule ought to apply to the Colonies, Except perhaps to those which come under part 2 of the Bill.

I would therefore suggest that

the warrant should be countersigned

or other

in the Colony from which it issues by the Colonial secretary or principal Executive officer deputed for the purpose in the Colony or part from which the application is made.

And that in Cases where an

Officer other than the Colonial secretary is deputed for the purpose that the Government giving a deputation

should undertake to be bound by the

acts of the party deputed and should

give notice to all other Governments

of the name or title of office of the party deputed, of which notice when published in the Gazette of the Colony

notified all Courts in that Colony shall be bound to take judicial notice.

A

great advantage also resulting from this course being adopted would be, that the responsibility would be thrown on the official in the Colony endorsing the warrant, of seeing that the necessary proof accompanied the warrant, in order to justify the Magistrate before whom the alleged Offender is brought to commit.
