REPORT ON ORDINANCE No.

40.......of 193 6.

1. I have examined the accompanying Ordinance intituled

an Ordinance to validate certain undertakings which

have been constructed or commenced over and upon

unleased Crown foreshores and sea bed; and to enact

certain general provisions which shall be deemed

incorporated, unless expressly varied or excepted,

in future Ordinances authorising reclamation or

other works of a public nature over and upon such

foreshores and sea bed.

2. A print of the memorandum of Objects and

Reasons of the Bill for this Ordinance is attached.

3. I am of opinion that this Ordinance is not

contrary to the Governor's instructions and that it

is one to which His Excellency may properly assent

in the name of His Majesty and on His behalf.
