ATTORNEY GENERAL's DRUFT. 280

Hongkong,

23rd December,

Report on Ordinance No.

24 of 1903.

1903

I have examined the accompanying Ordinance, entitled

An Ordinance to provide for Payment of Counsel's Fees

by the losing party in certain cases in which the Attorney General appears as Counsel.

and I am of opinion that the Ordinance is one which is not contrary to

the Governor's Instructions.

The object of this Ordinance is to provide for the

recovery of counsel's fees from the losing party in cases or

proceedings where the Attorney General appears as counsel.

This Ordinance will also remove any doubt which may

be entertained whether counsel's fees can be properly included

in a Bill of Costs against the losing party in cases where the

Attorney General appears but does not receive fees from the

Crown.

Henry Bourchier

Attorney General.
