dinance, 1875.
It is explained that the powers of a member of the Royal Naval Establishments Police acting under section 2 of the principal Ordin- ance are restricted to the area within the Estabishments, so that although he can arrest an offen- der within the Establishments he cannot pursue him outside the Establishments nor take him in custody to a police station or to a magistrate's court. Clause 2 of this Bill remedies this defect by sub- stituting a new section for section 2 (which it repeals of the prin elpal Ordinance.
The new section 2 also makes it clear that the Naval Establish- mcats Policy have the same powers on Water within the Establishments as on land, and extends to the waters of the harbour within 100 yards of the Establishments and to Naval An- chorages.
Second Lieutenant L. B. Holmes to be Lleutenant.
Company Sergeant-Major K. C. Hamilton to be Lieutenant.
Lee-Sergeant W. H. Owen to be Second Lieutenant.
Sergeant F. V. V. Ribeiro to be Second Lieutenant.
