Objects and Reasons,
The object of this Bill is to do away with the provision of the section amended by which the privileges locally granted by special licence to river steamers were restricted to British ships. The privileges referred to relate to licensing a river steamer to carry a number of passengers based on a more liberal estimate than in other steamers. The reason for the alteration is that, now, rights of reciprocity have been arranged between Great Britain and some other nations on certain points relative to maritime matters and consequently the restriction in the Ordinance of 1899 is no longer required.
JOHN A. BUCKNILL, Attorney General.
