legal practitioners. A very short time has passed since then and it has not been possible fur the members of that profession thoroughly consider the Bill now before the Chamber. They have considered it to some extent, and yesterday I was approached- by several legal gentlemen who asked me to lay their views before the Council. Since then some of the practitioners in the courts have evidently also approached the Hon. the Colonial Secretary who is better qualified to speak on this subject, I think, Sir, it is only right. that I should endorse, so far as one without legal knowledge may, what has been said by the Hon. The Colonial Secretary with regard to section 42 (6). Than

objections taken to it bare been fully explained by him. It is annecossary for me to refer at length to the point which has been very clearly explained already. I would point out the difficulty which would arise by changing the present wording in the Coðu section 42. To my mind there is no reason why the Code should ka altereil.
