Objects and Reasons.
1. The objects of clauses 2, 8, 9, 10 and 11 of this Bill are to substitute the words "any infectious disease" for the lists of infectious diseases set out in sections 69, 70 and 71 of the principal Ordinance, to transfer to the definition of "Infectious disease" in section 2 (1) the diseases mentioned in section 69 which are not already in the definition, and to delete from sections 71 and 72 the references to "epidemic", "endemic", "contagious" and "communicable” diseases, as these four words are not defined in section 2 (1) and are not necessary in view of the amended definition given
"Infectious disease".
