intestates estates administered under section 19 of the
Probates Ordinance within the scope of section 4 of this
Ordinance. There is no need to make any similar provision
with regard to section 14 of the Frobates Ordinance.
section merely gives the Official Administrator power to
take possession of the movable property of a deceased
person and to provide for its safe custody until probates
or administration is granted. If the whole value of any
such estate does not exceed 250 the Official Administrator
can administer it under section 19 of the Probates Ordinance.

Excellency the Governor may properly assent in the name of
His Majesty and on His behalf.
Attorney General.
