(iii) Making or possession of explosives 14 years

(Section 5).

Accessories to the commission of any offence under this Ordinance are liable to be punished as if they had been guilty as principals (Section 6).

5. It seems to me that the alternative course proposed in paragraph 2 of the draft would require the creation of a new offence by emergency regulations. It is not simply a matter of altering the penalty applicable to Sections 3 and/or 4 of CAP. 206.

Your para. 5. It could be done

by

an emergency regulation altering the penalty laid down in sections 3+ 4. But such a course's not to be recommended.
