Objects and Reasons.

1. It is considered desirable that Air Raid Wardens should be organized into a corps with their rights and duties defined under statutory enactment.

2. This Bill, which follows generally the lines of the Hong Kong Police Reserve Ordinance, No. 24 of 1927, is intended, when enacted, to carry out that object. A provi- sion corresponding to section 3 (2) of Ordinance No. 24 of 1927 is no longer necessary as it has been made general by section 40 (4) of the Interpretation Ordinance, No. 31 of 1911, as published in the 1937 edition of the Ordinances of Hong Kong.

March, 1940.

C. G. ALABASTER,

Attorney General.
