certain duties outside those of his office, for which
he is to be paid fees in addition to his ordinary
salary, e.g. to hold a special enquiry or to revise

appoint a Judge for such duties might be inconvenient.)
He performs duties of an office which he was in-

ultra vires". Moreover, sometime later the Section
is remembered and it then transpires that he has

of the special duties, so that all judicial acts
performed by him since then are found to be invalid.
The Section should be worded as follows:
11.
No Chief Justice or Puisne Judge
shall accept or perform any other
office or place of profit or emolument
the
not authorised by law without/consent
of the Governor:
Provided that this Section shall not
apply to a Judge temporarily appointed
under Section 10.

Colony, and should be asked to follow suit.
