Enclosure 3.

Minute by the Harbour Master.

C.O. 641 13613 KECO * REG 29 MAY 19

Hon. Colonial Secretary,

The Board of Trade's letter suggests that section 22 should not apply to seamen because their case is already provided for in section 21:

I submit that all that is required is to point out that section 21 refers to a seaman discharged from his ship in the Colony, or wrongfully left behind in the Colony and that section 22 is required to apply to a seaman out of employment brought to the Colony as a destitute passenger. I am unable to furnish the statistics mentioned by the Acting Attorney General, perhaps the Police might be able to do so.

(Sd. R. Murray Runcie)

27/2/99.
