The object of section 8 is obvious. Its justification as an
mendment of a temporary bill is that it is desirable to facilitate
building operations generally.
14. Section 9 deals with the question of bankruptcy. It was Bug-
ested by the recent case of Reeves v. Davies, 37 T.L.R. 431.
16. Clause 7 of the original bill cave rise to a considerable amount
of criticism in detail.

Clause 8 of the original bill was the clause which the landlords
lefly objected to. It became comparatively unimportant because
fter it was drafted the Puisne Judge held that the effect of the
incipal Ordinance was as stated in clause 6 of the bill. It
ened therefore unnecessary to press this clause in the face of
spposition.
17. Clause 9 of the original bill was abandoned more readily because
e judgment in the case referred to in the preceding paragraph
eemed to involve a construction of the principal Ordinance in agree-
at with the provisions of the proposed clause 9.
10. Clause 10 would probably not have made any real or substantial
change in the law either.
In my opinion this is an ordinance to which His Excellence the
...ernor may properly assent in the name of His Majesty and on His
te elf.
