3. Consequently by Ordinance No. 1 of 1930 (since amended by Ordinance No. 3 of 1933) a new section 4A was introduced into the 1927 Ordinance requiring a deposit of $3,000 unless the Registrar was prepared to accept a bond in lieu thereof.

4. Since then bonds have usually been accepted but, with the daily ebb and flow of population across the Colony's borders, such bonds are difficult to enforce especially in the cases in which it is most necessary to enforce them.

5. The Object of this Bill is to enable the Registrar in his discretion to demand a deposit even where a bond has been previously accepted.

May, 1937.

C. G. ALABASTER,

Attorney General.
