The method proposed to effect this is the registration
of the judgment, vesting order or
winding up order, as the case may be, in the Court where it
is desired that it should be given effect to in the case.
It will supersede the necessity for suing out Colonial or Imperial Judgment, process.

The operation of these measures as regards the United Kingdom is dependent upon similar legislation in each Colony and therefore the application of them is practically optional; but I see no reason why, if the Imperial Measures are passed, this Colony should not legislate in a similar manner and at any rate make the experiment. I can foresee evil that can arise from the application of the principles; but if those interested will avail themselves of the facilities to be afforded, I apprehend considerable benefit.

I would venture to suggest that the principle involved is equally applicable between the Colonies inter se and between Colonies and places outside Her Majesty's dominions where jurisdiction is exercised under The Foreign Jurisdiction Act.
The Bills now under consideration apparently contemplate the full development of the principle in this direction, but unless there are practical difficulties in the way which do not occur to me at the present moment, it appears to me that, at any rate as regards the Colonial Judgment Bill, intercolonial legislation would be advisable in the direction indicated above.
