EMERGENCY REGULATIONS
MADE BETWEEN MAY AND 31ST DECEMBER 1967
(Paragraph 181)
APPENDIX V
1. The Emergency (Courts) Regulations, enacted on 23rd May, gave judges
and magistrates the power to clear their courts and the buildings if
they considered this necessary; and empowered the Police to remove from
the precincts of the courts any person whose conduct interfered with the
proper administration of justice.
2. The Emergency (Prevention of Inflammatory Speeches) Regulations,
enacted on 24th May, were designed to enable effective action to be
taken against vocal incitements by loudspeaker and other means to
violence and law-breaking, and to undermining the loyalty of the Police.
3. The Emergency (Prevention of Inflammatory Posters) Regulations,
enacted on 1st June, were directed against inflammatory posters-that is
posters containing incitement to violence or lawlessness or which spread
disaffection or attempt to under- mine the loyalty of the Police Force
or the public service or to stir up ill-will in the community. Enactment
of these regulations also enabled the Police to warn the owners of
property where these posters are displayed, as well as giving the Police
power to remove or obliterate them.
4. The Emergency (Prevention of Intimidation) Regulations, introduced on
24th June, strengthened the law relating to criminal intimidation. These
Regulations were revoked on the enactment of the Public Order Ordinance,
1967, which contains similar provisions.
5. The object of the Emergency (Closed Areas) Regulations also
introduced on 24th June, was to increase the security of certain
essential installations by making it an offence to enter or be in such
premises without permission or authority. Only three installations-the
two electricity power stations and the tramways depot-were gazetted.
6. The Emergency (Principal) Regulations (Commencement) Order, enacted
on 20th July, brought into force the Emergency (Principal) Regulations
Nos. 27, 41, 88, 92, 96, 107, 113, 127 and 129. These emergency
regulations had been on the statute book since 1949, though none of them
were in force. They were brought into force in order to meet a new phase
of terrorist activity and in particular:
(a) to legalize the use of the military to reinforce the Police
Force-regulations
96 and 113;
(b) to give power to the Governor and the Commissioner of Police to
prohibit
assemblies if this should be necessary-regulations 107 and 127;
(c) to introduce higher penalties for the sabotage of essential
services-regula-
tion 129;
(d) to impose penalties for the dissemination of false
reports-regulation 27; (e) to permit the holding of trials in camera if
necessary-regulation 88; (f) to permit the Governor to order the opening
or closing of any class of shops
or businesses-regulation 92,
81
APPENDIX V-Contd.
7. The Emergency (Public Health and Urban Services Ordinance)
(Amendment) Regulations 1967, enacted on 21st July, amended the Public
Health and Urban Services Ordinance to provide that a person having the
right to dispose of a dead body must not only make a claim to do so
within forty-eight hours of the body being received into a mortuary,
but must also remove the dead body within
forty-eight hours of making the claim. This legislation enabled the
Urban Services Department to carry out the burials of dead bodies which
were unclaimed or for which no arrangements for burial had been made by
the next-of-kin.
8. The Emergency (Principal) (Amendment) Regulations, introduced on 22nd
July, were designed:
9.
(a) to give Police officers power to enter and search premises without
warrant where they suspected that arms, offensive weapons or explosives
are held -regulation 41;
(b) to make it an offence to frequent or be found in such
premises-regulation 119A. (A person charged with this offence had a good
defence if he could show that he did not know that the weapons, etc,
were on the premises.); (c) to make it an offence to be in premises
access to which is barred to Police
officers--regulation 119B;
(d) to make it an offence to be in unlawful possession of corrosive
substances,
acids, etc.-regulation 119C;
(e) to make it an offence to consort with persons possessing offensive
weapons
intending to use them unlawfully-regulations 118 and 119;
(f) to fill a gap in the present public order legislation in authorizing
the use of such force as may be necessary to implement these regulations
(regulation 100A). (Regulation 100B sets out the common law principle
that the degree of force used should not be more than is necessary to
achieve the objective.)
The Emergency (Principal) Regulations (Commencement) (No. 3) Order,
enacted on 28th July, brought into force regulations 29(1), 30 and 31,
concerning detention by the Colonial Secretary. These regulations
enabled action to be taken against persons who stimulated or encouraged
acts of violence and lawlessness but did not themselves take any part in
these acts.
10. The Emergency (Principal) (Amendment) (No. 2) Regulations, brought
into force on 1st August, enabled the District Court to impose heavier
sentences than its normal jurisdiction allowed in respect of a limited
number of offences against the Emergency (Principal) Regulations. The
maximum penalty for offences against the majority of these regulations,
set out in regulation 136 was 5 years/$10,000 on indict- ment, these
penalties being within the normal sentencing powers of the District
Court. However, regulations 117 and 118 dealing with unlawful possession
of arms, offensive weapons, explosives, etc. had as befits the
seriousness of those offences a maximum penalty of 10 years
imprisonment. This penalty could normally be imposed only by the Supreme
Court. Since it was regarded as important that persons arrested in con-
nection with arms and explosives offences should be brought before a
Court as quickly as possible, the District Courts were also given powers
to impose sentences of up to 10 years imprisonment for such offences. By
virtue of the Emergency (Legal Aid Criminal Cases) (District Court)
Regulations, brought into force on 1st September free legal aid was made
available to persons charged with such offences who were brought before
the District Courts.
APPENDIX V-Contd.
11. The possession of simulated bombs or the presence of any persons in
premises where simulated bombs were made or stored was made an offence
by the Emergency (Principal) (Amendment) (No. 3) Regulations, which were
enacted on 5th September,
12. As the gunpowder in fireworks could be used to manufacture bombs the
Emergency (Fireworks) Regulations were enacted on 8th September to
empower the Government to seize and take into safe custody all fireworks
in the possession of dealers or private individuals. All persons who
were in lawful possession of fireworks seized were entitled to
compensation.
13. The Emergency (Committee of Review) (Amendment) Rules, made on 23rd
October required the disclosure of information concerning the reason for
the arrest of any person that the Colonial Secretary had ordered to be
detained, under the powers referred to in paragraph 9 above; provided
that in the opinion of the Colonial Secretary such disclosure would not
be contrary to the public interest.
14. The Emergency (Amendment of Magistrates Ordinance) Regulations,
enacted on 24th October provided that offences under section 3 of the
Explosive Substance Ordin- ances and under sections 28 and 29 of the
Offences against the Person Ordinance could be transferred from the
Magistrates Courts to the District Courts as well as to the Supreme
Court.
15. The Emergency (Principal) (Amendment) (No. 4) Regulations, enacted
on 24th October:
(a) empowered a court to order that any case before it be held in
camera; and (b) increased the list of offences which could be dealt with
by District Courts
under the extended jurisdiction described in paragraph 10 above.
