is placed upon him and him alone. There cannot fail to arise cases where in exercising this difficult and painful responsibility a Governor will come to the conclusion that the law should take its course. It would be wrong to expect a Governor in exeraising the royal prerogative to subvert his judgment in fulfilling his clear constitutional duty in order to meet a domestic political requirement of Ministers in London. The only acceptable way for such a decision to be over-ridden in the existing constitutional arrangement would be by exercise of her residual prerogative by the Queen herself on the advice of the British Minister.
