ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE,

Hongkong,

3th June,

1903.

Report on Ordinance No..

of 190 8.

I have examined the accompanying Ordinance, entitled

An Ordinance to amend the Summary Offences

(Amendment) Ordinance, 1905,

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 confine the meaning of

the expressions "thoroughfare" and "public place" as used in

the Summary Offences (Amendment) Ordinance, 1905, to the pur-

-poses of sections 3 and 4 of that Ordinance inasmuch as the

anofficial members of the Council understood when voting for the

passing of that Ordinance that the scope and meaning of those

.expressions was so confined.

Hemy. Beck

Attorney General.
