12.

Section & of this Ordinance is intended to improve

the form of section 7 of the principal Ordinance. It also

deals with the time of coming into operation of any resolution

of Legislative Council passed under that section.

13.

Section 9 of this Ordinance repeals section 8 of the

principal Ordinance as having been now rendered unnecessary

by the Public Revenue Protection Ordinance, 1927, Ordinance

No. 9 of 1927.

14. Section 10 of this Ordinance substitutes "time" for

"day" throughout section 10 of the principal Ordinance, so as

to correspond with the "time" provisions of Ordinance No. 9 of

1927, section 4 (1), and of the new section 7 of the principal

Ordinance, above referred to.

15. Section 11 of this Ordinance amends section 11 (1) (3)

of the principal Ordinance by making more accurate provision

for the case of tobacco which is removed from one bonded

warehouse to another. It also repeals section 11 (2) of the

principal Ordinance which is incompatible with the new system

of duties as explained above.

16.

Sections 12, 13 and 14 of this Ordinance eliminate the

word "dutiable" from sections 17, 18, 21 and 22 of the

principal Ordinance so as to give the Superintendent fuller

control over the movements of tobacco generally.

Section 13

also corrects an error in section 18 (1) of the principal

Ordinance by substituting "bonded" for "licensed" in the last

line of that sub-section.

17.

Section 15 of this Ordinance amends section 24 of the

principal Ordinance for the following reasons :

(a) Paragraph (1) makes certain alterations which are

aimed at stopping up loop-holes.

(b) Faragraph (ii) supplies an obvious omission.

(c) Paragraph (iii) supplies other obvious omissions.
