Objects and Reasons.

1. This Ordinance repeals the Pharmacy and Poisons Ordinance, No. 9 of 1916, and instead enacts new provisions based upon the Pharmacy and Poisons Act, 1933, which it closely follows.

2. A Table of Correspondence is attached showing the corresponding sections of the English Act, and the variations therefrom, and also the corresponding Poisons Rules, and the variations therefrom.

3. The provisions of Ordinance No. 9 of 1916 dealing with the narcotic poisons included in Part III of the Schedule to that Ordinance have been omitted from this Ordinance, adequate provision having been made for the control of such poisons in the Dangerous Drugs Ordinance, No. 35 of 1935.

4. Section 28 of this Ordinance provides that the Ordin- ance shall come into force on such date as the Governor by Proclamation may appoint.

April, 1937.

C. G. ALABASTER,

Attorney General.
