But the point that I want specially to emphasise is that I am confident from what I have heard and seen that the Attorney General is looked upon in the Colony as merely a lawyer to whom the Government refers questions from time to time for advice. I believe this view of the Attorney General's duties to be entirely wrong. The Attorney General is and must be always treated as an Executive Officer, who must be consulted at all stages in complicated matters, and not only on mere points of law; he is the guide whom the Government must rely on and follow in order to prevent mistakes from being made; and if he is this, as from my own experience I know he must be, one Law Officer certainly can have no time to devote to private practice.
