I have examined the accompanying Ordinanceintituled an Ordinance

to amend the Chinese Extradition Ordinance, 1889, and I am

of opinion that the Ordinance is one which is not contrary

to the Governor's instructions.

2.

The original draft of this Ordinance was sent to the

Secretary of State in the Governor's despatch No.328 of the

14th July, 1927. The introduction of the Ordinance was

eventually approved by the Secretary of State in his telegram

of the 24th September, 1927, but he directed that certain

alterations should be made in clause 2 of the draft. Subject

to what appears below in paragraph 4 of this report, tho se

alterations are embodied in the present Ordinance.

る。

It was understood that the Secretary of State intended

to reject the words "recognised by the Governor for the pur-

-poses of this Ordinance", which appeared in the original

draft.
