Report on Ordinance No. 2 of 1902.

I have examined the accompanying Ordinance, entitled

An Ordinance to further amend The New Territories Land Court Ordinance, 1900, (No. 18 of 1900),

and I am of opinion that the Ordinance is one which is not contrary to the Governor's Instructions.

The object of section 2 is to allow a claimant the right of appeal in cases where his claim has been split up into various sections each of less value than $5,000 although the original claim may have been over that amount.

---

Section 3 extends to persons liable to pay a perpetual rent charge in money the opportunity of redemption allowed to persons liable to a similar rent charge in grain by section 19.

Section 4 provides for authenticated maps and plans being received as prima facie evidence: a similar provision appears in section 83 of the Straits Settlements Ordinance III of 1893.

Any S. Burling

Attorney General.
