YOUR TELNO 1668: SURRENDER OF FUGITIVE OFFENDERS: LOCALISATION OF
LAWS.
1.
WE CONSIDER IT PREFERABLE FOR THE REFERENCES IN PARA 8(A) AND PARA (B) OF THE PAPER TO BE TO LEGISLATIVE INSTRUMENTS RATHER THAN ORDERS. THE FINAL FORM OF THE NECESSARY SUBORDINATE LEGISLATION IS STILL UNDER DISCUSSION. 'LEGISLATIVE INSTRUMENT' IS A MORE FLEXIBLE TERM.
2.
WE AGREE THAT THE WORD 'SOLELY' IN PARA 10(C) SHOULD BE DELETED.
3. YOUR ADVICE IN RELATION TO 'ENACTMENTS' WILL NOT SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT OUR PLANS. REPEAL OF AMENDMENT OF UK ORDERS WILL, AS INDICATED IN THE CONSULTATION PAPER, BE UNDERTAKEN ON A PROGRESSIVE BASIS. STATUTORY ORDERS WILL BE REPEALED BY THE LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL. PEROGATIVE ORDERS, WHICH WILL OCCUR RARELY IN THIS AREA, WILL HAVE TO BE REPEALED IN LONDON.
