VENUS BAY.

MASTERS of Vessels and others are informed that a pair of leading beacons, 500ft. apart, painted white and having triangular tops, have been erected on the north side of the entrance to Venus Bay. These kept in line N. 23° E. lead over the deepest water on the outer bar. Also that a beacon, painted red, having a triangular top, has been placed on the south side of the channel just above No. 1 Red Beacon. This beacon in line with No. 1 Black Beacon N. 67° E. leads over the deepest water on the inner bar and midway between the two points forming the entrance.

Vessels entering the Bay should steer for the outer white leads until the inner black and red leads come in line; then steer for them until well over the bar, from whence the black beacon is to be kept on the port hand, as usual.

Approximate position of front white beacon, lat. 33 13 S.: long. 134° 394′ E.

BEARD BAY.

A Red Perch Buoy has been placed in three and a half fathoms L.W.S. inside the rocky bar at the entrance to Beard Bay. This buoy kept in line with Calea Bluff N. 7° W. leads over the deepest and generally smoothest water on the bar, giving a depth not less than 10ft. at L.W.S. Also that a beacon, painted black, having a triangular top, has been erected on the top of the sandhill on the west side of the entrance. In line with the perpendicular cliff of Cape Radstock S. 42° W. it leads clear of the N.W. edge of Propeller Rock, which is situated about half a cable N. by W. from the buoy, and has on it about 6ft, at L.W.S.

Vessels intended for entering should steer for the buoy in line with Calca Bluff, and when inside the bar keep the buoy on the starboard hand and steer N.N.W. until the beacon comes on with the cliff of Cape Radstock, after which clear anchorage with at least 23 fathoms will be found from N.N.W. to N.E. for 3 cables, beyond which the bay gradually shoals to about 3ft. at L.W.S. 15 miles from the entrance.

Approximate position of buoy, lat. 33° 11′ S.; long. 134° 21′ E.; all bearings

magnetic.

These affect Admiralty charts Nos. 1061 and 1066.

(2) If an entrance to a port is closed, three red vertical lights by night, or three red balls by day, will be exhibited in some conspicuous position, in or near to its approach, and as far as possible notice of this fact will be given by look-out vessels in the offing.

CAUTION WHEN APPROACHING BRITISH PORTS.

(1) My Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, having taken into consideration the fact that circumstances may arise in which it may be necessary, on account of periodical ex- ercises, manœuvres, or otherwise, to forbid all entrance to the Naval Ports at night, this is to give Notice that on approaching the shores of Great Britain, or any port of the British Empire, if search lights are observed to be in constant operation, the Naval Ports should be approached with great caution, as it may be apprehended that obstructions may exist out- side, or that the entrances may be altogether closed.

(2) If an entrance to a port is closed, three red vertical lights by night, or three red balls by day, will be exhibited in some conspicuous position, in or near to its approach, and as far as possible notice of this fact will be given by look-out vessels in the offing.

160

In this case vessels must either proceed to the position marked "Examination Anchor- age" on the Admiralty Charts and anchor there, or keep the sea.

(3) At all the ports or localities at home or abroad referred to at the end of this Notice, search lights are occasionally exhibited for exercise, and this may make navigation difficult when approaching them.

Instructions have been given to avoid directing moveable lights towards vessels under way, but mariners are warned that great caution is necessary when search lights are being exercised.

II.

EXAMINATION SERVICE.

(1) Under certain circumstances it may become necessary to take special measures to examine vessels desiring to enter the ports or localities in the United Kingdom and His Majesty's Possessions abroad, mentioned at the end of this Notice.

(2) In such case, vessels carrying the distinguishing flags or lights mentioned in para- graph (4) will be charged with the duty of examining ships which desire to enter the ports and of allotting positions in which they shall anchor."

(3) As the institution of the Examination Service at any port will never be publicly advertised, especial care should be taken in approaching the ports, by day or night, to keep- a sharp look-out for any vessel carrying the above-mentioned flags or lights, and to be ready to "bring to at once when hailed by her or warned by the firing of a gun.

21

(4) By day the distinguishing flags of the Examination Steamer will be a special flag (white and red horizontal surrounded by a blue border) and a blue ensign.

Also, three red vertical balls if the port is closed.

By night the steamer will carry :-

(a) Three red vertical lights if the port is closed. (b) Three white vertical lights if the port. is open.

The above lights will be carried in addition to the ordinary navigation lights, and will show an unbroken light around the horizon.

(5) Masters are warned that, before attempting to enter any of these ports when the Examination Service is in force, they must in their own interests strictly obey all instruc- tions as to entry given to them by the Examination Steamer. In the absence of any in-

structions from the Examination Steamer they must proceed to the position marked "Ex- amination Anchorage" on the Admiralty Charts and anchor there.

(6) In case of fog Masters of vessels are enjoined to use the utmost care, and the Examination Anchorage itself should be approached with caution.

(7) The pilots attached to the ports will be acquainted with the regulations to be followed.

Short

title and construction.

Repeals sec- tion 2 of Ordinance 19 of 1903 and new section substituted therefor.

Harbouring Chinese mar- ried woman without

"reason-

able" excuse an offence

punishable summarily.

An Ordinance to amend the Magistrates Amend-

ment Ordinance, 1903.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Magistrates Amendment (No. 2) Ordinance, 1910, and shall be read and construed as one with the Magistrates Ordinance, 1890, (hereinafter called "the Principal Ordinance") and this Ordinance and the Principal Ordinance and the Ordin- ances amending the same may be cited together as "The Magistrates Ordinances, 1890-1910".

2. Section 2 of the Magistrates (Amendment) Ordin- ance, 1903, is hereby repealed and the following section is substituted therefor :-

2.-(1.) Every person who without reasonable excuse shall receive or harbour any Chinese woman married according to the laws or customs of China who has left the protection of her husband shall be liable on conviction before a Magistrate in a summary way to a penalty not exceeding $100 or in default of payment to imprisonment with or without hard labour for any term not exceeding three months.

the

(2.) The Magistrate may in addition to such penalty

order the person convicted to pay to husband of such woman damages not exceed- ing $200 and in default of payment may issue a warrant of distress on the goods and chattels of such husband which shall have the same force and effet as a warrant of distress issued under the provisions of the Principal Ordinance:

Provided always that it shall be a suffi- cient defence to any charge under this section if it is made to appear to the Magistrate that the person so charged had reasonable cause, other than from information supplied by the woman whom the defendant is charged with harbouring, to believe that the woman was a spinster or to believe that she was a widow."

!

Memorandum.

Knowingly harbouring a Chinese married woman with- out reasonable excuse is created an offence by Ordinance but difficulty has arisen in proving that the man charged knew the woman harboured to be a married woman. The Bill amends Ordinance No. 19 of 1903 by placing upon the male paramour the duty of ascertaining other than from information supplied by the woman herself whether she was a spinster or a widow.

It also empowers the Magistrate to award damages not exceeding $200 to the aggrieved husband in addition to the penalty prescribed by the Ordinance.

3. Subject to the provisions, if any, in that behalf of the memorandum of association of the company, and without prejudice to any special rights previously conferred on the holders of existing shares in the company, any share in the company may be issued with such preferred, deferred, or other special rights, or such restrictions whether in regard to dividend, voting, return of share capital, or otherwise, as the company may form time to time by special resolution determine.

533

4. If at any time the share capital is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class) may be varied with the consent in writing of the holders of three-fourths of the issued shares of that class er with the sanetin of an extraordinary resolution passed at a separate general meeting of the holders of the shares of the class. To every such separate general meeting the provisions of these regulations relating to general meetings shall mutatis mutandis apply, but so that the necessary quorum shall be two persons at least holding or respresenting by proxy one-third of the issued shares of the class.

5. No share shall be offered to the public for subscrip- tion except upon the terms that the amount payable on application shall be at least five per cent, of the nominal amount of the share; and the directors shall, as regards any allotment of shares, duly comply with such of the provisions of sections 86 and 89 of the Companies Or- dinance, 1910, as may be applicablo thereto.

6. Every person whose name is entered as a member in the register of members shall, without payment, be entitled to a certificate under the common seal of the company. specifying the share or shares held by him and the amount paid up thereon, provided that in respect of a share or shares held jointly by several persons the company shall not be bound to issue more than one certificate, and delivery of a certificate for a share to one of several joint holders shall be sufficient delivery to all.

7. If a share certificate is defaced, lost, or destroyed, it may be renewed on payment of such fee, if any, not exceeding fifty cents, and on such terms,if any, as to evidence and indemnity as the directors think fit.

8. No part of the funds of the company shall be employee in the purchase of, or in loans upon the security of, thd company's shares.

Lien.

9. The company shall have a lien on every share (not being a fully-paid share) for all moneys (whether presently payable or not) called or payable at a fixed time in respect of that share, and the company shall also have a lien on all shares (other than fully-paid shares) standing registered in the name of a single person, for all moneys presently payable by him or his estate to the company; but the directors may at any time declare any share to be wholly or in part exempt from the provisions of this clause. The company's lien, if any, ou a share shall extend to all dividends payable thereon.

10. The company may sell, in such manner as the direc- tors think fit, any shares on which the company has a lien, but no sale shall be made unless some sum in respect of which the lien exists, is presently payable, nor until the expiration of fourteen days after a notice in writing, stating and demanding payment of such part of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is presently payable, has been given to the registered holder for the time being of the share, or the person entitled by reason of his death or bankruptcy to the share.

11. The proceeds of the sale shall be applied in payment of such part of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is presently payable, and the residue shall (subject to a like lien for sums not presently payable as existed upon the shares prior to the sale) be paid to the person entitled to the shares at the date of the sale. The purchaser shall be registered as the holder of the shares, and be shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, nor shall his title to the shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the sale.

Calls on Shares.

12. The directors may from time to time make calls upon the members in respect of any moneys unpaid on their shares, provided that no call shall exceed one-fourth of the nominal amount of the share, or be payable at less

534

than one month from the last call ; and each member shall (subject to receiving at least fourteen days' notice specify- ing the time or times of payment) pay to the company at the time or times so specified the amount called on his shares.

13. The joint holders of a share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all calls in respect thereof.

14. If a sum called in rospect of a share is not paid before or on the day appointed for payment thereof, the person from whom the sum is due shall pay interest upon the sum at the rate of five dollars per ecut, per annum from the day appointed for the payment thereof to the time of the actual payment, but the directors shall be at liberty to waive payment of that interest wholly or in part.

15. The provisions of these regulations as to payment of intercst shall apply in the case of nonpayment of any sum which, by the terms of issue of a share, becomes payable at a fixed time, whether on account of the amount of the share, or by way of premium, as if the same had become payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.

16. The directors may make arrangements on the issue of shares for a difference between the holders in the amount of calls to be paid and in the times of payment.

17. The directors may, if they think fit, receive from any member willing to advance the same all or any part of the moneys uncalled and unpaid upon any shares held by bim; and upon all or any of the moneys so advanced may (until the same would, but for such advance, become presently payable) pay interest at such rate (not exceeding, without the sanction of the company in general meeting, six per cent.) as may be agreed upon between the member paying the sum in advance and the directors.

Transfer and Transmission of Shares.

18. The instrument of transfer of any share in the company shall be executed both by the transferor and transferee, and the transferor shall be deemed to remain a hokler of the share until the name of the transferee is entered in the register of members in respect thereof.

19. Shares in the company shall be transferred in the following form, or in any usual or common form which the directors shall approve :-

I, A.B. of

sum of $

in consideration of the paid to me by C.D. of (hereinafter called "the said transferee") do hereby transfer to the said transferee the share [or shares] numbered in the undertaking called the Company Limited, to hold unto the said trans- feree his executors, administrators, and assigns, subject to the several conditions on which I held the same at the time of the execution thereof and I, the said transferee, do hereby agree to take the said share [or shares] subject to the conditions aforesaid. As witness our bunds the

day of

Witness to the signatures of, &c.

20. The directors may decline to register any transfer of shares, not being fully-paid shares, to a person of whom they do not approve, and may also decline to register any transfer of shares on which the company has a lien. The directors may also suspend the registration of transfers during the fourteen days immediately preceding the ordinary general mecting in each year. The directors may decline to recognise any instrument of transfer unless-

(a) a fee not exceeding two dollars is paid to the

company in respect thereof, and

(b) the instrument of transfer is accompanied by the certificate of the shares to which it relates, and such other evidence as the directors may rea- sonably require to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer.

535

21. The executors or administrators of a deceased sole holder of a share shall be the only persons recognised by the company as having any title to the share. In the case of a share registered in the names of two or more holders, the survivors or survivor, or the executors or administra- tors of the deceased survivor, shall be the only persons recognised by the company as having any title to the share.

22. Any person becoming entitled to a share in conse quence of the death or bankruptcy of a member shall, upon such evidence being produced as may from time to time be required by the directors, have the right, either to be registered as a member in respect of the share or, instead of being registered himself, to make such transfer of the share as the deceased or bankrupt person could have made; the directors shall, in either case, have the same right to decline or suspend registration as they would have had in the case of a transfer of the share by the deceased or bankrupt person before the death or bankruptcy.

23. A person becoming entitled to a share by reason of the death or bankruptcy of the holder shall be entitled to the same dividends and other advantages to which he would be entitled if he were the registered holder of the share, except that he shall not, before being registered as a mem ber in respect of the share. be entitled in respect of it to exercise any right conferred by membership in relation to meetings of the company.

Forfeiture of Share,

24. If a member fails to pay any call or instalment of a call on the day appointed for payment thereof, the directors may, at any time thereafter during such time as any part of such call or instalment remains unpaid, serve a notice on him requiring payment of so much of the call or instal- ment as is unpaid, together with any interest which may have accrued.

25. The notice shall name a further day (not earlier than the expiration of fourteen days from the date of the notice) on or before which the payment required by the notice is to be made, and shall state that in the event of nonpayment at or before the time appointed the shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited.

26. If the requirements of any such notice as aforesaid are not complied with, any share in respect of which the notice has been given may at any time thereafter, before the payment required by the notice has been made, be forfeited by a resolution of the directors to that effect.

27. A forfeited share may be sold or otherwise disposed of on such terms and in such manner as the directors think fit, and at any time before a sale or disposition the forfeiture may be cancelled on such terms as the directors think fit.

28. A person whose shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a member in respect of the forfeited shares, but shall, notwithstanding, remain liable to pay to the company all moneys which, at the date of forfeiture, were presently payable by him to the company in respect of the shares, but his liability shall cease if and when the company receive payment in full of the nominal amount of the shares.

29. A statutory declaration in writing that the declarant is a director of the company and that a share in the com- pany has been duly forfeited on a date stated in the declar- ation, shall be conclusive evidence of the facts therein stated as against all persons claiming to be entitled to the share, and that declaration and the receipt of the company for the consideration, if any, given for the share on the sale or disposition thereof shall constitute a good title to the share, and the person to whom the share is sold or disposed of shall be registered as the holder of the share and shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, if auy, nor shall his title to the share be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the procedings in reference to the forfeiture, sale or disposal of the share.

30. The provisions of these regulations as to forfeiture shall apply in the case of nonpayment of any sum which, by the terms of issue of a share, becomes payable at a fixed time, whether ou account of the amount of the share, or by way of premium, as if the same had been payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.

536

Conversion of Shares into Stock.

31. The directors may, with the sanction of the com- pany previously given in general meeting, convert any paid-up shares into stock, and may with the like sanction reconvert any stock into paid-up shares of any denomin- ution.

32. The holders of stock may transfer the same, or any part thereof, in the same manner, and subject to the same regulations, as, and subject to which, the shares from which the stock arose might previously to conversion have been transferred, or as near thereto as circumstances admit; but the directors may from time to time fix the minimum amount of stock transferrable, and restrict or forbid the transfer of fractions of that minimum, but the minimum shall not exceed the nominal amount of the shares from which the stock arose,

33. The holders of stock shall, according to the amount of the stock held by them, have the same rights, privileges, and advantages as regards dividends, voting at meetings of the company, and other matters as if they held the shares from which the stock arose, but no such privilege or advantage (except participation in the dividends and. profits of the company) shall be conferred by any such aliquot part of stock as would not, if existing in shares, have conferred that privilege or advantage.

34. Such of the regulations of the company (other than those relating to share warrants) as are applicable to paid-up shares shall apply to stock, and the words "share" and "shareholder" therein shall include "stock" and "stock- holder."

Share Warrants.

35. The company may issue share warrants, and accord- ingly the directors may in their discretion, with respect to auy share which is fully paid up, on application in writing sigued by the person registered as holder of the share, and authenticated by ench evidence, if any, as the directors may from time to time require as to the identity of the person siguing the request, and on receiving the certificate, if any, of the share, and the amount of the stamp duty on the warrant and such fee as the directors may from time to time require, issue under the company's seal a warrant, duly stamped, stating that the bearer of the warrant is. entitled to the shares therein specified, and may provide coupons, or otherwise for the payment of dividends, or other moneys, on the shares included in the warrant.

36. A share warrant shall entitle the bearer to the shares included in it, and the shares shall be trans- ferred by the delivery of the share warrant, and the pro- visions of the company with respect to transfer and transmission of shares shall not apply thereto.

37. The bearer of a share warrant shall, on surrender of the warrant to the company for cancellation, and on payment of such sum as the directors may from time to time prescribe, be entitled to have his name entered as a member in the register of members in respect of the shares included in the warrant.

38. The brearer of a share warrant may at any time deposit the warrant at the office of the company, and so long as the warrant remains so deposited the depositor shall have the same right of signing a requisition for calling a meeting of the company, aud of attending and voting and exercising the other privileges of a member at any meeting held after the expiration of two clear days from the time of deposit, as if his name were inserted in the register of members as the holder of the shares included in the deposited warrant. Not more than one 1erson shall be recognised as depositor of the share warrant. The company shall, on two days' written notice, return the deposited share warrant to the depositor.

39. Subject as herein otherwise expressly provided no person shail, as bearer of a share warrant, sign a requisition for calling a meeting of the company, or attend, or vote, or exercise any other privilege of a member at a meeting of the company, or be entitled to receive any notices from the company; but the bearer of a share warrant shall be entitled in all other respects to the same privileges and advantage

i

T

537

as if he were named in the register of members as the holder of the shares included in the warrant, and he shall be a member of the company.

40. The directors may from time to time make rules as to the terms on which (if they shall think fit) a new share warrant or coupon may be issued by way of renewal in case of defacement, loss, or destruction.

Alteration of Capital.

41. The directors may, with the sanction of an extra- ordinany resolution of the company, increase the share capital by such sum, to be divided into shares of such amount, as the resolution shall prescribe.

42. Subject to any direction to the contrary that may be given by the resolution sanctioning the increase of share capital, all new shares shall, before issue, be offered to such persons as at the date of the offer are entitled to receive notices from the company of general meetings in proportion, as nearly as the circumstances admit, to the amount of the existing shares to which they are entitled. The offer shall be made by notice specifying the number of shares offered, and limiting a time within which the offer, if not accepted, will be deemed to be declined, and, after the expiration of that time, or on the receipt of an intima- tion from the person to whom the offer is made that he declines to accept the shares offered, the directors may dispose of the same in such manner as they think most beneficial to the company. The directors may likewise so dispose of any new shares which (by reason of the ratio which the new shares bear to shares held by persons entitled to an offer of new shares) cannot, in the opinion of the directors, be conveniently offered under this article.

43. The new shares shall be subject to the same provi- sions with reference to the payment of calls, lien, trausfer, transmission, forfeiture, and otherwise as the shares in the original share capital.

44. The company may, by special resolution--

(a) Consolidate and divide its share capital into shares of larger amount than its existing shares: (b) By subdivision of its existing shares, or any of them, divide the whole, or any part, of its share capital into shares of smaller amount than is fixed by the memorandum of association, subject, nevertheless, to the provisions of para- graph (d) of subsection (1) of section of the Companies Ordinance, 1910:

(c) Cancel any shares which, at the date of the passing of the resolution, have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person:

(d) Reduce its share capital in any manner and with, and subject to, any incident authorised, and consent required, by law.

General Meetings,

45. The statutory general meeting of the company shall be held within the period required by section the Companies Ordinance, 1910.

46. A general meeting shall be held once in every year at such time (not being more than fifteen months after the holding of the last preceding general meeting) and place as may be prescribed by the company in general meeting, or, in default, at such time in the month following that in which the anniversary of the company's incorporation occurs, and at such place, as the directors shall appoint. In default of a general meeting being so held, a general meeting shall be held in the mouth next following, and may be convened by any two members in the same manner as nearly as possible as that in which meetings are to be convened by the directors.

47. The above-mentioned general meetings shall be called ordinary meetings; all other general meetings shall be called extraordinary.

538

48. The directors may, whenever they think fit, convene an extraordinary general meeting, and extraordinary general meetings shall also be convened on such requisition, or, in default, may be convened by such requisitionists, as provided by section

of the Companies Ordinance, 1910. If at any time there are not in the place where the company has its head office sufficient directors capable of acting to form a quorum, any director or any two mem- bers of the company may convene an extraordinary general meeting in the same manner as nearly as possible as that in which meetings may be convened by the directors.

Proceedings at General Meeting.

Seven days' notice at the least (exclusive of the day ou which the notice is served or deemed to be served, but inclusive of the day for which notice is given) specifying the place, the day, and the hour of meeting and, in case of special business, the general nature of that business shall be given in manner hereinafter mentioned, or in such other manner, if any, as may be prescribed by the company in general meeting, to such persons as are, under the regula- tions of the company, entitled to receive such notices from the company but the non-receipt of the notice by any member shall not invalidate the proceedings at any general meeting.

50. All business shall be deemed special that is trans- acted at an extraordinary meeting, and all that is trans- acted at an ordinary meeting. with the exception of sanctioning a dividend, the consideration of the accounts, balance sheets, and the ordinary report of the directors and auditors, the election of directors and other officers in the place of those retiring by rotation, and the fixing of the remuneration of the auditors.

51. No business shall be transacted at any general mect- ing unless a quorum of members is present at the time when the meeting proceeds to business; save as herein otherwise provided, three members personally present shall be a quorum.

52. If within half an hour from the time appointed for the meeting a quorum is not present, the meeting, if con- vened upon the requisition of members, shall be dissolved; in any other case it shall stand adjourned to the same day in the next week, at the same time and place, and, if at the adjourned meeting a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for the meeting the members present shall be a quorum.

53. The chairman, if any, of the board of directors shall preside as chairman at every general meeting of the com- pany.

54. If there is no such chairman, or if at any meeting he is not present within fifteen minutes after the time appointed for holding the meeting or is unwilling to act as chairman, the members present shall choose some one of their number to be chairman.

55. The chairman may, with the consent of any meeting at which a quorum is present (and shall if so directed by the meeting), adjourn the meeting from time to time and . from place to place, but no business shall be transacted at any adjourned meeting other than the business left unfinished at the meeting from which the adjournment took place. When a meeting is adjourned for ten days or more, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given as in the case of an original meeting. Save as aforesaid it shall not be necessary to give any notice of an adjournment or of the business to be transacted at an adjourned meeting.

56. At any general meeting a resolution put to the vote of the meeting shall be decided on a show of hands, unless a poll is (before or on the declaration of the result of the show of bands) demanded by at least three members, and, unless a poll is so demanded, a declaration by the chairman that a resolution has, on a show of hands, been carried, or carried unanimously, or by a particular majority, or lost, and an entry to that effect in the book of the proceedings of the company, shall be conclusive evidence of the fact, without proof of the number or proportion of the votes recorded in favour of, or against, that resolution.

539

57. If a poll is duly demanded it shall be taken in such manner as the chairman directs, and the result of the poll shall be deemed to be the resolution of the meeting at which the poll was demanded.

58. In the case of an equality of votes, whether on a show of hands or on a poll, the chairman of the meeting at which the shows of hands takes place or at which the poll is demanded, shall be entitled to a second or casting vote.

59. A poll demanded on the election of a chairman, or ou a question of adjournment, shall be taken forthwith. A poll demanded on any other question shall be taken at such time as the chairman of the meeting directs.

Votes of Members.

60. On a show of hands every member present in person shall have one vote. On a poll every member shall have one vote for each share of which he is the holder.

61. In the case of joint holders the vote of the senior who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders; and for this purpose seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names stand in the register of

members.

66. The instrument appointing a proxy and the power of attorney or other authority, if any, under which it is sigued or a notarially certified copy of that power or authority shall be deposited at the registered office of the company not less than forty-eight hours before the time for holding the meeting at which the person named in the instrument proposes to vote, and in default the instrument of proxy shall not be treated as valid.

MEMORANDUM

ON

THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE PROVISIONS

OF

THE NEW COMPANIES BILL

AND

THE COMPANIES (CONSOLIDATION) ACT, 1908.

NOTE.

The following memorandum of the differences between the provisions of the Bill and those of the Companies (Consolidation) Act, 1908, of the Imperial Parliament, on which the Bill is based, refers specifically to every clause about which there is likely to be any controversy. Other changes are treated generally.

The sections in the Act, and the corresponding clauses in the Bill, are given at the end of each paragraph or sub-paragraph.

The changes have been made chiefly on account of the following:-

(a.) The existence of the "Shanghai Companies".

(b.) Chinese language and customs.

(c.) Existing local law, courts, currency, etc.

MEMORANDUM.

"Shanghai Companies".

A great many of the companies registered in Hongkong are companies which transact all their business outside the Colony, Most of these companies have their head offices either at Shanghai or at Tientsin. They have no office here for the transaction of business, and their directors and officers and all their property are Under out of reach of the jurisdiction of the Hongkong courts. these circumstances, control over them is difficult, and it is found in practice that some of them are very dilatory and negligent in complying with the provisions of the law. In order to strengthen our control over these companies a number of provisions have been introduced into the Bill which do not exist in the Act because the difficulty has never become acute in the United Kingdom. Other provisions have been inserted in order to meet the convenience of these companies; these have been rendered necessary by the time which letters take to reach Hongkong from Shanghai, Tientsin, etc., and by the fact that different newspapers circulate in those ports. One provision, which is adopted from previous legislation, i.e., Ordinance 16 of 1907 as amended by Ordinance 20 of 1909, is the result of a compromise between the rival claims of the Hongkong Government and the extraterritorial authorities at Shanghai to collect probate or estate duty on the shares of these "Shanghai Companies". All the special provisions referred to are enumerated below.

(a.) Inspection of Register of Members. The "Shanghai Companies" have only a skeleton registered office here, and consequently there is no one, strictly, who can "refuse" inspection. The Act provides a penalty only where inspection is "refused". The Bill provides the same penalty where inspection " cannot be obtained at the registered office with the exercise of a reason- able amount of diligence". Act, Section 30; Bill, Clause 31 (4),

558

(b.) Inspection of Registers of Mortgages and of Debenture Hollers.--For the same reason the Bill requires these to be kept at the registered office of the company, and provides a penalty where the inspection cannot be ob- tained with the exercise of a reasonable amount of diligence. Act, Sections 100 to 102: Bill, Clauses 101 to 103.

(c.) Painting up of Name.-The Act requires a company to keep its name painted up on the outside of every office in which its business is carried on. The "Shanghai Companies" have no office here in which their business is carried on. The Bill adds, "and on the outside of its registered office". Act. Section 63 (1) (a); Bill, Clause 64 (1) (a).

(d.) Advertisements.-The Act requires that the annual closing of the register of members shall be advertised in some newspaper circulating in the district in which the registered office of the company is situate. When a company has a local register the Bill requires the closing to be also advertised in the place where the local register is kept. The Act also requires the ap- pointment of a liquidator in a voluntary winding up to be advertised in two newspapers circulating in the district where the registered office or principal place of business of the company was situate. The Bill here omits the words "registered office". Notice should be given in the place where the shareholders and cre- litors live, and not in a place three days journey away. Act, Sections 31 and 188; Bill, Clauses 32 and 180. (e) Times for Filing.-As the head offices of the "Shanghai Companies" are several days journey from the office of the registrar of companies the Bill allows 14 days longer for filing documents than the Act does. The Clauses concerned are:--10, 27, 45, 71, 89, 94, 141, 179 and 187 (3). (Act, Sections 9, 26, 44, 70, 88, 93, 147, 187 and 195.) No extension is necessary in the case of Clauses 46, 95, 187 (5) and 212, because in those the document to be filed is an order made by the court in Hongkong, and the matter would always be in the hands of a Hongkong solicitor. (Act, Sec- tions 45, 94, 195 (5) and 223.)

(f) Loral Register Licences.--These have been approved in principle already. They were introduced by Ordinance 16 of 1907 (antended by Ordinance 20 of 1909), and were a compromise of the old question between the Hongkong Government and the Shanghai authorities about probate duty. No licence is payable under the Act for Colonial Registers, but it must be remembered that the Act exempts the shares from duty only where the deceased was domiciled outside the United Kingdom while our provisions give a total exemption. Act, Sections 34 to 36; Bill, Clauses 35 to 37. (9.) Annual Summary.-In the case of a company which has a local register licence the number of shares on the local register, and their distinguishing numbers or marks, if any, must be stated in the annual summary. This will be a convenience to everyone in connection with the calculation of probate duty. It will cause no inconvenience as it is believed that all the companies which keep local registers have all their shares on the local registers. At present, however, that fact has to be ascertained afresh and sworn to in every new estate. Act, Section 26; Bill, Clause 27.

**

(h.) Failure to pay Fine. At present, there is no means of compelling a Shanghai Company" to pay a fine, as all its property is outside the jurisdiction, except possibly by obtaining a winding up order. The Bill provides that a company which fails to pay a fine imposed by a Magistrate may be struck off the register after notice to the company and advertisement in the Gazette. It cannot be struck off until after three months, and the Court may restore it if necessary. Act, Nil; Bill, Clause 257.

559

Chinese Language and Customs.

Some special provisions are introduced in order to meet the requirements of the Chinese language, and one provision is omitted on account of the expected attitude of the Chinese towards it. The following are the details :-

(a.) Chinese Names. It is well known that Chinese individual and place names are of little use unless given in Chinese characters. The Bill requires that the Chinese characters of all Chinese names and addresses in the company's register of members, and in the annual summary, shall be given. Act, Sections 25, 26; Bill, Clauses 26, 27.

(b.) Chinese Equivalent of" Limited Company".-The Act requires a limited companies to use the word "limited" as part of their names, and forbids the use of the word by unincorporated persons. The regular Chinese equivalent of "limited company" is "yau han kung sz" (RA). The Bill provides that any Chinese equivalent of its name which a limited company may use shall contain that expres- sion, and it penalises the use of the term by persons who have not been incorporated with limited liability. Act, Sections, 3, 4, 258, 274, 282; Bill, Clauses 4, 5, 236, 252, 260.

(c.) Banks, Half-Yearly Statement. Hitherto there has been no limitation in Hongkong on the size of partner- ships formed for the purpose of banking, and the English law on this subject is now being applied for the first time. Opposition is expected to this provision of the Bill, on account of the publicity which it will involve, and it has been decided as a concession to exempt banks from making the statement required by clause 108 of the Bill. Act. Section 108; Bill, Clause 108.

Necessary Changes.

Certain inevitable changes made in adapting the Act to Hongkong are given below:-

(a.) References to Scotland and Ireland are of course

omitted.

(b.) The provisions relating to the Stanneries are also, of

course, unnecessary.

(c.) Penalties are worked out at the rate of $10 to £1. (d.) Under both the Act and the Bill the memorandum and the articles must each bear an ordinary deed stamp. In England this is 10, while in Hongkong it is $30. Act, Sections 6 and 12; Bill, Clauses 7 and 13. (e.) Under the Act the Companies Liquidation Account is to be kept at the Bank of England. Under the Bill it is to be kept at such bank as the Colonial Treasurer may direct.

Act, Sections 154, 224, 229; Bill. 148, 216.

(f.) Penal servitude was abolished in Hongkong by Ordin-

ance 3 of 1887. Act, Section 38; Bill, Clause 39. (9.) To remove doubt arising under a local Ordinance the time for appealing from orders made in a winding up is definitely stated to be 14 days. This is the time in England: see Or. 58, rr. 9 and 15. Act, Section 181; Bill, Clause 173.

(h.) In Hongkong no one but the Bailiffs of the Supreme Court can levy a distress for rent (Ordinance 1 of 1883), while in England distress is levied by a great number of certificated bailiffs. This has necessitated some change in Clause 199. Act, Section 209 (4); Bill, Clause 199 (4).

(i.) References to the Joint Stock Companies Acts entirely disappear because we have never had any correspond- ing Ordinances here. (Sections 13 (2), 246 and 248 of the Act.)

560

(j) Various changes are rendered necessary by the follow- ing facts:-In the United Kingdom a number of courts have jurisdiction in the winding up of com- There are panies, while we have only one here. several registration offices in the United Kingdom, but there is only one here. References have to be made to local legislation instead of to Acts of the Imperial Parliament in many cases, and dates and place names have to be altered. In some cases there are no authorities in Hongkong to correspond to the English authorities referred to in the Act: special instances of this are dealt with under the headings Board of Trade" and "Rules-Fees-Tables- Forms".

65

Board of Trade.

The non-existence in Hongkong of any authority to corres- pond to the Board of Trade in England has proved one of the The greatest difficulties in adapting the Act to this Colony. following is a table giving the sections and clauses concerned, their subject matter, and the equivalent which has been adopted in each case for the Board of Trade :-

use

In choosing these equivalents the general policy has been to "Governor wherever possible, and to insert "Official Receiver" wherever the duties imposed are such as are not con- sonant with the office of Governor. In a few cases where the duties

561

are not such as can be conveniently performed by the Governor, but where a higher, or a more judicial, authority than the Official Receiver seemed desirable, "Court" has been adopted. In one case, which relates to the making of rules, the power has been given to the Legislative Council, and in another, which is only a matter of registration, "Registrar of Companies" has been chosen.

Rules Fees-Tables-Forms.

The provisions of the Act and of the Bill are compared under the following heads:-

(a.) Fee for search by non-members of a company's registers of members and mortgages.-In the Act the fee is 1-, and in the Bill it is 50 cents, which is the present fee for search of the register of members. Act, Sections 30 & 101; Bill, Clauses 31 & 102.

(b.) Fee for copies supplied by a company.-In the Act the fee is sixpence per hundred words, and in the Bill it is 25 cents per folio, which is the present fee for copies of the register of members. Act, Sections 30 & 102; Bill, Clauses 31 & 103.

(c.) Fee for search in the office of the registrar of companies.- The Act provides for the payment of such fees as may be appointed by the Board of Trade, not exceed- ing one shilling for each inspection". The Bill fixes it at $1.00, which is the present fee. Act, Section. 243 (6); Bill, Clause 223 (5).

(d.) Fees for copies supplied by the registrar of companies.- The Act provides for fees not exceeding 5- for a certificate of incorporation and not exceeding sixpence per folio for a copy of any other document. The Bill fixes the fees at $5.00 and 40 cents per folio respective- ly, which are the present fees. Act, Section 243 (6) ; Bill, Clause 223 (5).

(e.) Fees on registration of a company and on registration of

an increase of capital. --These are set out in Table B in the First Schedule both in the Act and in the Bill. Table B in the Bill simply re-enacts Table B of the present Companies Ordinance, 1865, which contains the fees chargeable here at present. Our scale is a little higher than the scale in the Act, so far as it goes, but it stops at a maximum of $300 while the English scale goes up to £50. To look only at Table B, how- ever, would be to obtain a very misleading comparison between the fees payable on the registration of a com- pany in England and Hongkong respectively, for in England there is payable in addition a Capital Duty of 5 per £100 of capital, and there is no limit upon this duty. It was imposed by the Finance Act, 1899, s. 7, and has no counterpart in Hongkong. The re- sult is that in all but the very smallest companies our registration fees are far lower than the English fees. For instance, in the case of a company with a capital of $500,000 our fee is $224 while in England it would be £127-10-0, or say $1,500. For present purposes I have disregarded such fees as do not vary with the amount of the capital.

The fees in Table B of the Act may be lowered, but may not be increased, by the Board of Trade (Sections 118 & 244). Similarly, those in Table B of the Bill may be lowered, but may not be increased, by the Governor (Clauses 118 & 224).

(f.) Fee for registration of documents.-This is 5- under the Act, and $3, the present fee, under the Bill. Act, Section 274 and Table B; Bill, Clause 252 and Table B.

(g.) Stamps on memorandum and articles.-Both the Act and the Bill require that the memorandum and the articles shall each bear the same stamp as if it were a deed. In England the general deed stamp is 10/-, and in Hongkong it is $30. Act, Sections 6 and 12; Bill, Clauses 7 and 13.

562

(h.) Stamp on share warrants to bearer.-The present Com- panies Ordinance, 1865, s. 51, requires share warrants to bearer to be stamped with an ad valorem stamp of 30 cents per $100 of nominal value. In England this duty is provided for in the Stamp Act, 1891, and not in the Companies Act, and it has been decided to deal with it here in an amendment of the Stamp Ordinance. It may

be mentioned that the English rate is five times the present Hongkong rate.

(i.) Winding up fees. Under the Act these are fixed by the Lord Chancellor with the sanction of the Treasury, and under the Bill by the Governor-in-Council. Act, Section 237 (3); Bill, Clause 219 (2).

(j.) Winding up Rules "including winding up forms".

Under the Act these are made by the Lord Chancellor with the concurrence of the President of the Board of Trade, and under the Bill by the Chief Justice with the sanction of the Colonial Treasurer. Act. Section 237 (1): Bill, Clause 219 (1).

(k.) All other rules of procedure, including rules as to costs and fees", are made in England by the authority having power to make rules for Supreme Court, i.é., the Lord Chancellor, Lord Chief Justice, Master of the Rolls, President of the Probate, Divorce and Admiralty Division, and four other judges. The Bill places this power in "the Chief Justice with the approval of the Legislative Council". This is the authority which possesses, under section 32 of Ordin- ance 3 of 1873, the limited power of making rules for the Supreme Court which is all that the legislature has parted with in this Colony (except for a limited power given to the Chief Justice by Section 709 of the Code of Civil Procedure). Act, Section 238; Bill, Clause 220.

(1.) Tables and Forms.-Under the Act, any of the tables and forms in the First Schedule to the Act may be altered by the Board of Trade, except that it may not increase the fees payable to the registrar of companies. Under the Bill these tables and forms may be altered by the Governor, and he also has no power to increase the fees payable to the registrar of companies. Act, Section 118; Bill, Clause 118.

Banks.

The fact that banking partnerships were excluded from the operation of the Companies Ordinance, 1865, has necessitated the insertion in Clause 227 of a provision that banking companies in existence at the time of the commencement of the Bill may register under it, and of a consequential alteration in Clause 234. Of course existing banks need not register unless they wish. In one other matter relating to banks the Bill differs from the Act, i.e., limited banking companies are not required to publish the statement of assets and liabilities referred to in Clause 108 of the Bill. Act, Sections 108, 249, 256; Bill, Clauses 108, 227, 234.

Inspection of Register of Members.

The Bill provides that the registrar of companies may inspect the registers of members, mortgages, and debenture holders, of any company without fee. Act, Sections 30 (1), 101, 102; Bill, Clauses 31 (1), 102, 103.

Holding of lands in Hongkong by Foreign Companies.

Under the Bill, every company incorporated outside the Colony which fulfils the conditions of Clause 252 is empowered to hold lands in the Colony: this follows the present law (see Ordinance 7 of 1908). The Act gives the power only to companies incor- porated in a British possession. Act, Sections 274, 275; Bill, Clauses 252, 253.

ON

THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE PROVISIONS

OF

THE NEW COMPANIES BILL

AND

THE EXISTING LAW IN THE COLONY.

NOTE.

The following memorandum of the chief differences between the provisions of the new Companies Bill and the existing law in the Colony professes neither exhaustiveness nor literal accuracy, and various minor details and qualifications have been omitted advisedly. The existing law is contained in the Companies Ordin- ance, 1865 (No. 1 of 1865), which in its present form in Sir John Carrington's Edition of the Ordinances is a consolidation of the original Companies Ordinance and of various subsequent ordinances which adopted selected portions of later English legislation. It contains none of the English legislation after 1898, and the legis- lation up to that year was only partially taken over. In particular, the Directors Liability Act, 1890, (53 and 54 Vict. c. 64), was not adopted. The present Bill is based on the Companies (Conso- lidation) Act, 1908, (8 Edward 7, c. 69), and this embodies, inter alia, the Directors Liability Act, 1890, (53 and 54 Vict. c. 64), the Companies Act, 1900, (63 and 64 Viet. c. 48), and the Com- panies Act, 1907 (7 Edward 7, c. 50). In the references at the end of the paragraphs, "Ordinance" means the Companies Ordinance, 1865, and "Act" means the Cou panies (Consolidation) Act, 1908.

Summary.

The following is a summary of the principal changes intro- duced by the Bill into the existing law. Fuller details," and also other less important changes, are given in the body of the memorandum.

(a.) Annual Summary.-This will contain some useful

additional information in future.

(b.) Annual Balance Sheet.-All companies will in future have to file an annual balance sheet of assets and liabilities.

(c.) First Meeting and the Statutory Report.-Seven days before the first meeting the directors must send to every shareholder, and file with the registrar of com- panies, a statutory report" containing full details of the allotment, etc.

(d.) Prospectus.--Provision is made against misleading prospectuses. Minute directions are given as to the information that a prospectus must contain, and in case of misrepresentation the onus is thrown on the directors and promotors to show that they had reasonable ground to believe, and did believe, that the misleading state- ment was true. At present the onus is on the subscriber to show that the director or promoter knew the statement to be false.

(e.) Allotment. Restrictions are imposed in order to prevent allotments being made on insufficient applications and business being commenced without a reasonable capital. (f.) Commissions and Discounts.--Restrictions are imposed on the payment out of capital of commissions or dis- counts for taking or placing shares. This is intended to prevent a practice which was once common in England, of adding large amounts to the price advertised as payable to the vendors, who then arrange the underwriting, giving large blocks to financiers who guarantee that sufficient shares shall be taken to provide working capital.

565

(g.) Mortgages and Charges.-All future mortgages and charges on the company's property or undertaking will be void as against the creditors and liquidator unless they are registered within six weeks after the date of their creation.

(h.) Auditors.-The powers of auditors are enlarged, their responsibility is increased, their duties are rendered more stringent, and provision is made to ensure that the shareholders shall hear and have access to their report. This subject is entirely unregulated by statute at present. In practice, of course, provision is made in the Articles for audit, but there is no restriction on the nature of the provisions that the promoters may choose to adopt.

(i.) Winding up by the Court.-Every liquidator in a winding up by the court is placed under the regular and systematised control of the official receiver. He must send his accounts to the official receiver to be audited, must pay all receipts into an account con- trolled by him, must give him all necessary informa- tion, and must apply to him for his release. The official receiver reports to the court on the assets and liabilities of the company, on the causes of its failure, and if any fraud has been cominitted. At present, of course, the liquidator has in many cases to obtain the sanction of the court before taking action; the court makes a special order in each case as to the passing of his accounts, and may take cognizance of any neglect or misfeasance on his part if moved in that belialf; and the Registrar of the Supreme Court has to counter- sign all his cheques. But there is no authority whose duty it is to watch his conduct, or who is empowered to take action of his own motion in case of necessity. Some provision is also made for the case of voluntary winding up, but of course there is no regular control. (j.) Directors and Promoters.-The company must keep and file a register of directors. Provision is made to ensure that the persons held out to the public as intending directors shall really take up the office. In any proceeding by a subscriber against a director or promoter for misrepresentation in the prospectus, the onus will in future be on the director to show that he had reasonable ground to believe, and did believe, the misleading statement to be true. At present the onus is on the subscriber to show that the director knew the statement to be false. Failure to comply with the requirements of the law will in many cases entail a pecuniary penalty on the directors. Power is given to the court to relieve directors who have acted honestly and reasonably and who ought fairly to be excused. (k.) Foreign Corporations.-Every company incorporated outside the Colony which commences business in Hongkong after the commencement of the new Ordin- ance will have to give certain information and file an annual balance sheet.

(1.) False Statements in Returns.-Anyone who knowingly and wilfully makes a material misstatement in a return, report, balance sheet, certificate, etc., will commit a misdemeanour.

(m.) Banks.-In future, partnerships of more than ten persons formed for the purpose of banking will be illegal unless registered. Banking partnerships were omitted from the Companies Ordinance, 1865, because it was intended to deal with them separately. They have, however, been left entirely unregulated. (n.) Generally speaking, the provisions of the Bill apply to existing, as well as to future, companies. There are exceptions, and in particular it may be noted that foreign companies already doing business here, and existing banks, need not register.

It must, of course, be understood that some of the less important matters dealt with by the Bill are at present ordinarily regulated in the memorandum and articles of each individual

566

company, but they are made absolute in the Bill and are not left to the discretion of the promoters of companies, and the remark does not in any case apply to such matters as criminal offences, civil liability of directors and promoters, returns to be filed, or winding up requirements and control.

DETAILED MEMORANDUM.

Banking Partnerships.

Banks were omitted from the operation of the present Com- panies Ordinance, 1865, apparently because it was intended to deal with them by separate legislation. They have, however, been left entirely unregulated. In future, all partnerships of more than ten persons formed in Hongkong for the purpose of banking will be illegal unless registered as companies under the Bill. Existing banks which were formed here may register but are not obliged to do so.

Banks which are incorporated outside the Colony are not effected and need not in any case register as companies under the Bill, but if they first establish a place of business in the Colony after the commencement of the Bill they must register under Clause 252 and file an annual balance sheet. Ordinance, Sections 4, 6; Act, Sections 1, 108, 113, 249, 251, 256, 274. Bill, Clauses 2. 108, 113, 227, 229, 234, 252.

Stamp Duty.

In future, the memorandum and articles of association will each have to bear a stamp of $30 (10:- in England). They bear no stamp at present. The provision for the stamp duty on share warrants to bearer has been omitted from the Bill as it is proposed to deal with this matter in an amendment of the Stamp Ordinance. Ordinance, Section 51; Act, Sections 6, 12; Bill. Clauses 7, 13, 38.

Certificate of Incorporation.

The registrar's certificate of incorporation is made more fully conclusive. This change was introduced in England by the Companies Act 1900, and is intended to get rid of the inconvenience of the wording of the present section, which has been held not sufficient to cover the case of less than seven persons having signed the memorandum of association, and the doubts as to the case where some of the signatories were infants. Ordinance, Section 22 (3); Act, Section 17 (1); Bill, Clause 18 (1).

Annual Summary.

The annual summary filed with the registrar of companies will contain fuller information, especially on the following points:

(a.) Shares issued as fully or partly paid up otherwise than

in cash must be distinguished.

(6.) The amount paid or allowed by way of commission or discount in respect of shares or debentures must be stated.

(c.) The names and addresses of the directors must be given. (d.) The total amount due on all mortgages and charges which require to be registered must be specified. (e.) Where a company keeps a local register the number of shares on the local register, and their distinguishing numbers or marks, if any, must be stated. This provi- sion is not in the English Act. In the case of English companies, colonial registers are comparatively rare, and the exemption from probate duty is confined to the estates of persons domiciled out of the United Kingdom. In the case of Hongkong companies, local registers are frequent, and the exemption from probate duty is absolute. The proposed provision will save trouble in the ascertaining whether probate duty is payable, and will cause no inconvenience as it is believed that all the companies which keep local registers have all their shares on the local registers. At present, however, that fact has to be ascertained afresh and sworn to in every new estate.

567

(.) The summary must include a statement in the form of a balance sheet showing the company's assets and liabililities, but the balance sheet need not include a statement of profit and loss. Ordinance, Section 30; See also Ordinances Nos. 16 of 1907 and 20 of 1909; Act, Sections 26, 36; Bill, Clauses 27, 35.

Chinese Adresses.

In the companies' registers of members, and also in the annual lists of shareholders filed with the registrar of companies, the Chinese characters of all Chinese names and addresses will have to be given. Chinese names and addresses are of little or no use without the Chinese characters. Ordinance, Sections 29, 30; Act, Sections 25, 26; Bill, Clauses 26, 27.

Inspection of Company's Register.

Every company is bound to allow inspection of its register, a penalty being imposed in case of "refusal". Few, if any, of the Shanghai and Tientsin companies have an office here for the transaction of business, and consequently there is no one, strictly, who can "refuse" inspection. A sub-section has been added to the present Bill imposing the same penalty where inspection cannot be obtained at the registered office with the exercise of a reasonable amount of diligence". This provision is not in the Act of 1908 because probably the difficulty would seldom, if ever, occur in the United Kingdom. Ordinance. Section 39; Act, Section 30; Bill, Clause 31.

66

Local Register Authorizations.

These are omitted from the Bill, but this is really no change as the Government has been advised already that the section which introduced them is practically inoperative. There is no such thing in the United Kingdom as a local register authorization. Ordin- ances 16 of 1907, s. 5, and 20 of 1909, s. 4; Act, Nil; Bill, Nil.

Reorganisation of Share Capital.

At present, if the rights of the preference shareholders are defined in the memorandum of association, they cannot be altered under any circumstances, unless express power is given in the memorandum. This is often incovenient. The Bill provides that such rights may be altered, with the consent of three fourths of the class, and with the sanction of the court. This provision was first introduced in the United Kingdom by the Act of 1907. Ordinance, Nil; Act, Section 45; Bill, Clause 46.

Painting up of Name.

Every limited company is at present required to keep its name painted or affixed on the outside of every office where its business is carried on. The Bill adds, "and on the outside of its registered office". This is to meet the case of the Shanghai and Tientsin companies which have no office here "in which business is carried on". The provision is not required in the United King- dom. Ordinance, Section 87; Act, Section 63; Bill, Clause 64.

First Meeting.

The only provision at present is that the first meeting must (under a penalty) be held within four months after registration, and there are no requirements as to what information the directors must give at such meeting. Under the Bill the provisions are as follows. The first ("statutory") meeting must be held not less than one month nor more than three months from the date at which the company was entitled to commence business (see clause 88), and seven days before the meeting the directors must send to every member, and file with the registrar of companies, a

                    "statu- tory report", certified by two directors and by the auditors, and containing the following particulars :-

(a.) The total number of shares allotted, with the consider- ation, distinguishing the shares allotted as paid up otherwise than in cash:

(b.) The total amount of cash received on account of the

shares allotted:

568

(c.) An abstract of the receipts and payments on capital

account:

(d.) An estimate of the preliminary expenses of the com-

pany:

(e.) The names, addresses, and descriptions, of the directors

auditors, managers and secretary: and

(f.) The particulars of any contract which is to be sub-

mitted for modification.

No contract referred to in the prospectus can be altered ex- cept with the consent of the statutory meeting. The penalty on the directors, managers, and subscribers of the memorandum, is omitted, but the company may be wound up if there is any default in filing the statutory report or holding the statutory meeting. These provisions were introduced in the United Kingdom by the Act of 1900. Ordinance, Section 90; Act, Section 65, 83, 129: Bill, Clause 66. 84, 129.

Annual General Meeting.

The only provision at present is that it must be held once in every calendar year. The Bill provides that it shall be held once in every calendar year and not more than fifteen months after the last preceding general meeting. In case of default, a penalty is imposed and the court may call the meeting. This change was made in the United Kingdom by the Act of 1907. Ordinance, Section 89; Act, Section 64; Bill, Clause 65.

Requisition for Meeting.

The

Absolute provision is made for the calling of an extraordinary general meeting on the requisition of the shareholders. articles of a company cannot override this section. This is a good illustration of how the Bill regulates matters at present left to the discretion of each company. All properly drawn articles would provide for the calling of a meeting on requisition, but it is open to promoters to omit the provision, or even to negative it expressly. This section appeared first in the Act of 1900. Ordinance, Nil; Act, Section 66; Bill, Clause 67.

Extraordinary Resolutions.

These will have to be filed. At present, only special resolu- tions need be filed. This defect was remedied in the United Kingdom by the Act of 1907. Ordinance, Section 93; Act, Section 70; Bill, Clause 71.

Directors.

The Bill contains a number of new provisions relating to directors and promoters which are intended to ensure that the persons held out as proposed directors shall really assume that office and shall take up and continue to hold their qualification shares, to render more real and stringent the liability of directors and promoters for misrepresentation in the prospectus, to provide for greater publicity as to who are the directors of a company, and as to what their interest is in the company and its promo- tion, and to guard against directors commencing business on insufficient capital. Criminal penalties are imposed throughout the Bill on directors in order to ensure that the provisions of the law shall be carried out, and a director who wilfully makes a material false statement in a return commits a misdemeanour. Only the principal clauses can be referred to here:-

(a.) Register of Directors.-The company must keep a register containing the names, addresses, and occupa- tions of the directors, and must allow inspection of the register. It must also send a copy of the register to the registrar of companies, and must notify him of any changes in the directorate. At present this is neces- sary only in the case of companies not having a capital divided into shares.

(b.) Appointment.-A director cannot be appointed unless he has filed with the registrar of companies a contract to take and pay for his qualification shares (if any), and a consent in writing to act as director.

1

569

(c.) Qualification.-A director must acquire his qualifica- tion shares within two months of his appointment. If after that period he acts as a director without holding his qualification shares he is liable to a fine of $50 a day. d.) Prospectus.-The prospectus, or statement in lieu of prospectus, must contain the names, descriptions, and addresses of the directors or proposed directors, and no one can be named in the prospectus as a director or proposed director until he has filed with the registrar of companies a consent to act as such and a contract to take and pay for his qualification shares. The prospectus, or statement in lieu of prospectus, must be signed by every director or proposed director. It must contain full particulars of the interest of every director in the promotion or in the property to be acquired by the company, and a statement of all sums paid or agreed to be paid to him to induce him to become a director or for services in connection with

the promotion of the company, If the prospectus contains misleading statements the onus is thrown on the director or promoter to prove that he had reason- able ground for believing, and did up to allotment believe, that the statements were true: at present the onus is on the subscriber to show that the director or promoter knew the statements to be false. And even if the prospectus was issued, or the untrue statement was made, without his knowledge, he is still liable unless it is proved that on becoming aware of the issue of the prospectus or of any untrue statement therein, he forthwith gave reasonable public notice of the fact. (e.) Allotment.--Directors are liable civilly and criminally for breaches of the provisions as to allotment. (See the paragraph headed "Allotment ".)

(f.) Commencement of Business.-Directors are criminally liable for breaches of the restrictions on commence- ment of business. (See the paragraph headed "Com- mencement of Business ".)

(g.) Winding up.--In a winding up by the court, the Official Receiver may report on the conduct of the directors and if he reports fraud the court may order them to be publicly examined. They have in any case to submit to the Official Receiver a statement, verified by affidavit, as to the affairs of the company. (See further the paragraph headed "Winding up by the Court".) (h.) Auditors.-The stricter duties thrown on the auditors by the Bill will also act as a check on the directors and promotors. (See the paragraph headed "Audi- tors ".)

(i.) Generally throughout the Bill penalties are imposed on directors who are parties to contraventions of its ⚫ provisions.

(1.) Relief.-Power is given to the court to grant relief, wholly or in part, to directors charged with negligence or breach of trust, where the court thinks that they acted honestly and reasonably and ought fairly to be excused (Act of 1907).

Most of the special provisions relating to directors and pro- moters were introduced in the United Kingdom by the Directors Liability Act of 1890 or by the Companies Act of 1900. The reference given below are necessarily incomplete. Ordinance, Nil; Act, Sections 26, 72, 73, 75, 80 to 86, 147, 148, 175, 279; Bill, Clauses 27, 73, 74, 76, 81 to 87, 141, 142, 169, 258.

Prospectuses.

Under the present law, a prospectus must specify the dates and names of the parties to any contract which has been entered into by the directors or promoters, but there are no other statutory requirements whatsoever; and a subscriber who has been misled

570) -

by a false statement in a prospectus, in order to succeed against a director or promoter, must prove affirmatively that the director or promoter knew the statement to be false or made it recklessly not caring whether it was true or false. The Bill throws the onus in such a case on the director or promoter, and introduces several other provisions designed to guard the public against misleading prospectuses and to increase the liability of directors and promoters for the statements made in prospectuses. These may be classified under the following heads:

(a.) Contents. -Every prospectus must state :--

(1) The contents of the memorandum.

(2) The directors' qualification and remuneration.

(3) The names, addresses and descriptions of the directors

or proposed directors.

(4) The minimum subscription on which the directors may proceed to allotment, and the amount payable on application and allotment.

(5) The number of shares and debentures issued as paid up otherwise than in cash, and the consideration for them.

(6) The names and addresses of the vendors and the amount payable to them for the property.

(7) The amount paid or payable as commission for sub- scribing or procuring subscriptions for the shares or debentures of the company.

(8) The amount or estimated amount of preliminary ex-

penses.

(9) The amount paid or to be paid to any promoter, and

the consideration.

(10) The dates and parties of every material contract, and a reasonable time and place at which the con- tracts may be inspected.

(11) The names and addresses of the auditors. (12) Full particulars of the nature and extent of the in-

terest of every director in the promotion of, or in the property proposed to be acquired by, the com- pany, and a statement of all sums paid or agreed to be paid to him, in cash or otherwise, to induce him to become a director or otherwise for services rendered by him in connection with the promotion. (b.) Filing.-A copy of every prospectus, signed by every person named therein as a director or promoter, must be filed with the registrar of companies before the prospectus can be published. Every one who is a party to the issue of a prospectus which has not been filed is liable to a fine of $50 a day.

(c.) Statement in lieu of Prospectus.-A company which does not issue a prospectus must instead file a "statement in lieu of prospectus" which must contain the same particulars as a prospectus and must be signed by all the directors. Until this is filed, the company can neither allot shares nor commence business.

(d.) Remedies of Subscribers. At present, where a subscriber has been induced by a misrepresentation in the pros- pectus to apply for shares, in order to succeed against a director or promoter he must prove affirmatively that the director or promoter knew the statement to be false or made it recklessly not caring whether it was true or false. This is a difficult matter. In future, the onus will be on the director or promoter, and he will be liable unless he can prove that he had reason- able ground to believe, and did up to allotment believe, that the statemenot was true. And even if the pros- pectus was issued, or the untrue statement was made, without his knowledge, he will not be relieved unless it is proved that on becoming aware of the issue of the prospectus or of any untrue statement therein, he forth- with gave reasonable public notice of the fact.

A

571

The liability of directors and promoters was altered in the United Kingdom by the Directors Liability Act of 1890, the "Statement in lieu of Prospectus" was introduced by the Act of 1907, and the other changes were made by the Act of 1900. Ordinance, Section 101: Act, Sections 80 to 84, 285; Bill, Clauses 81 to 85, 261.

Commencement of Business.

A company shall not commence any business or exercise any borrowing powers unless :-

(a.) Cash shares have been allotted up to the minimum

subscription: and

(b.) Every director has paid on his cash shares the same amount as the public have to pay on their shares on application and allotment: and

(c.) A statutory declaration by the secretary that the above conditions have been complied with has been filed with the registrar of companies: and

(d.) In the case of a company which does not issue a pros- pectus, there has been filed with the registrar of companies a statement in lieu of prospectus.

No contract is binding until the date on which the company is entitled to commence business. If the company commences business in contravention of these provisions, every person who is responsible for the contravention is liable to a fine of $500 a day. These provisions were first introduced in the United Kingdom by the Act of 1900. They are designed (1) to prevent business being begun on insufficient capital, and (2) to make directors take up their shares. Ordinance, Nil: Act, Section 87; Bill, Clause 88.

Allotment.

As the law stands at present, the directors may go to allot- ment and commence business although only a very small portion of the capital has been applied for. The object of the provisions of the Act and Bill, which were first introduced in the United Kingdom by the Companies Act 1900, is to prevent allotments being made on insufficient applications, and business being com- menced without a reasonable capital. The provisions are as follows:-

-;

(1) No allotment can be made until a certain amount has been subscribed, and the amount payable on application has been actually paid.

(2) If the minimum subscription is not reached within 40 days from issue of the prospectus all money received from applicants must be returned, and the directors are personally liable for its return.

(3) A return must be filed with the registrar of companies, giving the details of the allotment, and in particular as to shares issued as fully or partly paid up otherwise than in cash. If default is made in filing this return the directors and officers are liable to a fine of $500 a day.

(4) An irregular allotment is voidable at the instance of the applicant within a certain period, and the directors are liable to compensate both the company and the allottee.

(5) A company shall not commence any business or exercise any borrowing powers unless the minimum amount has been allotted, and every director has actually paid to the company the proper amount on his own shares. Every person responsible for a contravention of this provision is liable to a fine of $500 a day. Ordinance, Nil Act, Sections 85 to 88; Bill, Clauses 86 to 89.

572

Commissions and Discounts.

Authority is given to companies to pay commission on taking, underwriting, or placing shares, provided that the rate of com- mission paid is authorised by the articles and is disclosed in the prospectus, statement in lieu of prospectus, circular inviting shares, etc. Any other payment out of capital moneys by way of com- missions, discount, or allowance for taking or placing of shares is expressely prohibited. This latter provision, which was introduced in the United Kingdom by the Companies Act 1900, was intended to stop the practice, formerly very common, of adding large amount to the price payable to the vendors, who then arranged the underwriting, giving large blocks of shares to financiers, who guaranteed that sufficient shares should be taken to provide work- ing capital.

When a company has paid any sums by way of commission in respect of any shares or debentures, the total amount so paid must be stated in every balance sheet of the company until the whole amount has been written off. (Act of 1907.) Ordinance, Nil; Act, Sections 89, 90; Bill, Clauses 90, 91.

Payment of Interest out of Capital.

Where shares are issued to raise money to defray the expense constructing works, buildings, or plant, which cannot be made profitable for a lengthened period, the company may pay interest on the amount paid up, provided the payment is authorised by the articles or by special resolution, is sanctioned by the court, and does not exceed a certain rate. This provision was first introduced in the United Kingdom by the Companies Act 1907. Ordinance, Nil; Act, Section 91; Bill, Clause 92.

Information as to Mortgages, Charges, etc.

The Companies Ordinance 1865 requires every limited com- pany under the Ordinance to keep a register of all mortgages and charges specifically affecting property of the company. The Bill continues this provision, and also provides that every mortgage or charge created after a certain date (in the United Kingdom, 9 months before the commencement of the Act), and falling within a certain defined and comprehensive class, shall, so far as any se- curity on the company's property or undertaking is thereby con- ferred, be void against the liquidator and any creditor of the com- pany, unless the prescribed particulars of the mortgage or charge are given, and the instrument by which the mortgage or charge is created or evidenced is produced, to the registrar of companies within five weeks after the date of its creation. It also provides that if a receiver or manager be appointed under any such instru- ment, notice of his appointment shall be given to the registrar of companies, and that such receiver or manager shall file with the registrar of companies accounts of his receipts and payments. The penalties for default are heavy. These provisions were introduced in the United Kingdom by the Companies Acts of 1900 and 1907.

A floating charge created within 3 months of a winding up is made invalid unless it can be proved that the company was solvent immediately after the creation of the charge. Ordinance, Section 102; Act, Sections 93 to 102, 212; Bill, Clauses 94 to 103, 202.

Auditors.

At present there are no statutory provisions with regard to auditors, nor were there any in the United Kingdom prior to 1900. The Bill requires the company to appoint auditors, and provides that in case of default the Governor may appoint them. Every auditor has a right of access at all times to the books and accounts and vouchers of the company, and is entitled to require from the directors and officers all necessary information and explanation. The auditors must make a report to the shareholders on the ac- counts examined by them, and on every balance sheet laid before the company during their tenure of office, and the report must state whether they have obtained all the information and explana- tions they have required, and also whether, in their opinion, the

573

balance sheet is properly drawn up so as to exhibit a true and correct view of the state of the company's affairs as shown by the books of the company. This report must be read before the com- pany in general meeting. The balance sheet in the annual sum- mary, and certain statements in the statutory report, must be audited by the auditors. If an auditor makes in his report a state- ment false in any material particular, knowing it to be false, he is guilty of a misdemeanour. Proceedings may also be taken in a winding up against an auditor for misfeasance, and in one case in England the auditor was held liable to repay a dividend improper- ly declared in reliance on a misleading certificate given by him, Ordinance, Nil; Act, Sections 26 (3), 65 (4), 112 to 114, 215, 281; Bill, Clauses 27 (4), 66, 112 to 114, 204, 259.

Private Companies.

These are introduced for the first time. A "private company" means a company which by its articles :-

It

(a.) restricts the right to transfer its shares; and

(b.) limits the number of its members (exclusive of persons who are in the employment of the company) to fifty; and

(c.) prohibits any invitation to the public to subscribe for

any shares or debentures of the company.

may be formed by two or more persons and may be wound up if the number of members falls belows two: the corresponding number for an ordinary company is seven. As the public are not invited to subscribe for shares, and as private companies are small and intimate, the ordinary restrictions as to allotment, commence- ment of business, and the appointment or advertisement of directors, do not apply, and the statement in form of a balance sheet, the statement in lieu of a prospectus, and the statutory report, need not be filed. Preference shareholders and debenture-holders have no right to receive or to inspect the reports or balance sheets of a private company. Otherwise private companies are subject to the same provisions as an ordinary company. They were introduced in the United Kingdom by the Companies Acts of 1900 and 1907. Ordinance, Nil; Act, 2, 26 (3), 65 (10), 72 (3), 82 (2), 85 (vii), 87 (6), 114, 115, 121, 129 (iv), 137 (i); Bill, 2, 27 (4), 66 (10), 73 (3), 83 (2), 86 (7), 88 (6), 114, 115, 121, 129 (iv), 131 (i).

Power to Compromise.

Power is given to the court to sanction a compromise between a company and its creditors or any class of them, or between its members or any class of them, provided that the compromise is approved by a three-fourths majority in value of the creditors, members, or class in question. Formerly the power existed only where the company was being wound up. Ordinance, Section 192; Act, Section 120; Bill, Clause 120.

Winding up by the Court.

He is

Under the present law, the Court appoints in each case an "Official Liquidator" to wind up the company. This officer is of course not a Government official, but is usually an ex-employee of the company, a public accountant, or other suitable person. subject to the general control of the court, and has to come to the court at various stages in the winding up. Some of his functions he can perform only with the sanction of the court. The Registrar of the Supreme Court has to countersign all his cheques, must join in any request for the investment of the moneys of the company, and keeps the documents representing such investments. But apart from the above he is subject to no regular and systematised

control.

The Companies Act of 1890 introduced in England a stricter control and placed it in the hands of a Government official called the "official receiver" and of the Board of Trade. This system is continued by the Companies (Consolidation) Act of 1908, and is adapted to Hongkong by the present Bill. In the High Court a special officer is appointed as official receiver for the purpose of

574

companies winding up, while in the Country Courts the official receivers in Bankruptcy act. Considerable difficulty has been ex- perienced in adapting these provisions of the Act owing to the absence in Hongkong of any authority corresponding to the Board of Trade, and as the matter is still under discussion it is impossible to do more than indicate broadly how the control will affect the liquidators of companies, and some of the statements as to the officers by whom that control is to be exercised must be taken as provisional. In any case, many of the details of the control must be worked out later on in the Winding-up Rules, which in the case of England form a medium Svo. book of 144 pages. The following are the main features of the control.

A new office is created, that of official receiver for companies matters. As the number of companies which are being wound up at any given time is small in Hongkong it is proposed that the duties of this office should be discharged by the official receiver in bankruptcy. As soon as a winding-up order has been made the official receiver becomes the provisional liquidator of the company. He may also be appointed liquidator, and he is ex-officio liquidator during any vacancy in the office. As such provisional liquidator he summonses separate meetings of the creditors and contributo- ries of the company to determine whether application shall be made to the court for appointing a liquidator in place of the official receiver, and whether application shall be made for the appoint- ment of a committee of inspection. Usually the court appoints the person selected at the meetings, but it is not compelled to do so, and sometimes refuses. As a rule it leans in favour of appoint- ing the official receiver. If the two meetings differ, the court decides between them. Within 14 days of the winding-up order the directors and officers of the company are bound to make out and submit to the official receiver a statement, verified by affidavit, giving information as to the assets, liabilities, and creditors of the company, and such other information as the official receiver may require. The official receiver then makes a report to the court on the capital, assets, and liabilities of the company, on the causes of its failure, and whether further enquiry is desirable as to any matter relating to the promotion, formation, or failure of the com- pany, or the conduct of its business. He may also make a further report as to whether any fraud has been committed, and on such further report the court may order the public examination of the suspected promoters, directors, or officers. This provision, it may be noted, goes far beyond the present powers of examining di- rectors and officers.

Every liquidator must pay the moneys received by him to an account called the Companies Liquidation Account, at such bank as the Colonial Treasurer may direct. The official receiver con- trols this account and authorises all payments out, and himself keeps separate accounts of the receipts and payments in the wind- ing-up of each company. Every liquidator must send to the official receiver at least twice a year an account of his receipts and pay- ments, and the court causes the account to be audited. The two preceding sentences illustrate the difficulty of applying the Act here. The functions which are assigned in them to the official re- ceiver are in England performed by the Board of Trade, and as the bill stands there is no regular control over the liquidator when the latter happens to be the official receiver. Such control is of course less necessary than in the case of "outside" liquidators, and Clause 218 provides for the auditing of his accounts. The official receiver (in England, the Board of Trade) is also to take cognizance generally of the conduct of liquidators of companies, may on complaint make an enquiry and take such action as he thinks fit, and may apply to the court for the examination of the liquidator on oath. All"outside" liquidators are bound to give to the official receiver all necessary information and access to the books and documents of the company, and have to apply to him (in England, the Board of Trade) for their release. They must also give certain information to the registrar of companies.

Various improvements are also introduced into winding up procedure, e.g., the appointment of committees of inspection and special managers where desirable. Power is also taken to delegate to liquidators certain powers of the court, e.g., as to making calls; advantage of this has been taken in the English winding up Rules,

575

which of course lay down certain limitations of the liquidators discretion. Ordinance, 3rd Schedule, Rules 43 and 44; Act, Sections 146 to 149, 152 to 161, 173, 175, 187, 224, 229 to 231: Bill, Clauses 140 to 143, 146 to 155, 167, 169, 179, 213, 216 to 218.

Voluntary Winding Up.

Three main changes are introduced with regard to voluntary winding up. The first two were introduced in the United Kingdom by the Companies (Consolidation) Act 1908, and the third was introduced in England by the Companies (Winding up) Act 1890. They are as follows:-

(a.) Notice by Liquidator of his Appointment.-The liquida- tor in a voluntary winding up must file a notice of his appointment with the registrar of companies within a certain time.

(b.) Rights of Creditors in a Voluntary Winding up.-The liquidator in a voluntary winding up must call a meeting of creditors within a certain time, to consider whether application shall be made to the court to appoint any other person as liquidator in place of or jointly with the liquidator appointed by the company. (c.) Returns, Balances and Meetings.-If the liquidation is not concluded within 12 months from the date of the reso- lution to wind up, the liquidator must make periodical returns to the registrar of companies, must pay any balance in his hands into the Companies Liquidation Account (which is under the control of the official receiver), and must call periodical meetings of the companies and lay before them an account of his conduct of the winding up. Creditors are also given power to apply to the court, a right which formerly belonged to contributories only (Companies Act 1900). Ordinance, Nil; Act, Sections 187, 188, 193, 194, 224; Bill. Clauses 179, 180, 185, 186, 213.

Power to declare Dissolution Void.

Power is given to the court, within two years of the dissolu- tion of a company, upon such terms as it thinks fit, to declare the dissolution void. Ordinance, Nil; Act, Section 223: Bill, Clause 212.

l'ourt Fees and Solicitors' Costs.

At present the scales of court fees and solicitors' costs in com- panies matters differ in a few unimportant particulars from the Original Jurisdiction scale: this is inconvenient. The Bill applies the latter scale throughout. The English scales, of course, are different from ours. Ordinance, Third Schedule, Rules 93 and 94, and the Schedules thereto; Bill, Clause 221.

Use of the word "Limited".

A company registered with limited liability under the present Ordinance must use the word "limited" as part of its name, but there is no provision for the case of companies which use a Chinese name, and it is no offence for unincorporated persons to carry on business under a name containing the word "limited" or its Chinese equivalent. The Bill makes it an offence for unincorpor- ated persons to use the word "limited", or its Chinese equivalent

A, and it requires that any Chinese equivalent of its name which a company may use shall contain the Chinese cha- racters). The use of the word "limited" by un- incorporated persons was first made an offence in the United Kingdom by the Companies Act 1907. The provision as to Chinese names is of course peculiar to the Bill. Ordinance, Sections 8, 9, 87, 88; Act, Sections 3, 4, 63, 258, 274, 282; Bill, Clauses 4, 5, 64, 236, 252, 260.

Winding-up of Unregistered Companies.

The present Companies Ordinance, 1865, does not provide for the winding-up of unregistered companies although the Com- panies Act 1862 of the Imperial Parliament, on which our Ordin- ance was founded, did so provide. The Bill remedies this omission. The provision, of course, does not apply to partnerships which the Bill makes illegal. Ordinance, Nil; Act, Sections 267 to 273; Bill, Clauses 245 to 251.

Companies Incorporated outside the Colony,

At present companies incorporated outside the Colony need not file any documents or give any notice here unless they wish to hold land in the Colony. The Bill provides that every such company which in future shall commence business in the Colony shall file certain documents, shall in all its advertisements, letter paper, etc., state the country where it is incorporated, and shall file an annual balance sheet with the registrar of companies. Foreign companies which comply with the provisions of these sections shall have power to hold lands within the Colony. Foreign companies already doing business here need not file any documents unless they wish to hold lands, and even then they will not have to advertise their country of origin or file an annual balance sheet. These provisions as to foreign companies were first introduced in the United Kingdom by the Companies Act of 1907, and the power of holding lands was first given by the Companies (Consolidation) Act 1908. It is noteworthy, however, that the Act gives that power only to companies incorporated in British possessions and not to foreign corporations generally. The rights of companies which have filed memorials under the present Foreign Corporation Lands Ordinance, 1908, (No. 7 of 1908), and the rights of the two foreign corporations specially legislated for by Ordinances Nos. 9 and 10 of 1907, will not be affected. Ordinances Nos. 9 and 10 of 1907, and 7 of 1908. Act. Sections 274 and 275: Bill, Clauses 252 and 253.

Relief of Directors.

Power is given to the court to grant relief, wholly or in part, to directors charged with negligence or breach of trust, where the court thinks that they acted honestly and reasonably and ought fairly to be excused. This power was given in the United King- dom by the Companies Act of 1907. Ordinance, Nil; Act, Section 279; Bili, Clause 258.

Failure to

pay

Fines.

Power is given to strike off the register any company which fails to pay a fine imposed by a magistrate. The power is carefully guarded and the procedure is founded on that for striking off defunct companios. The company cannot be struck off under three months, and can be restored by the court. This provision, which does not exist in the Act, is rendered necessary here by the exist- ence of the Shanghai and Tientsin companies, which have neither officers nor property within the jurisdiction. Ordinance, Nil ; Act, Nil; Bill. Clause 257.

False Statements in Returns, etc.

Memorandum.

This Bill consolidates the laws relating to the New Territories. It effects certain amendments of which the following are the principal :-

1. The Local Communities Ordinance is repealed. This Ordinance is useless and was never actually put in force. The districts and sub- districts and local tribunals have never had any real existence. The one useful section of the Ordinance is retained as Section 12 of the Bill.

2. Ordinance 7 of 1896 (Registration of Births, etc.) has been made to apply to the New Territories. This has been done as there seems no reasom why births and deaths should not be registered and the law will be enforced very gradually.

3. Obsolete Ordinances are repealed see Schedule I. 4. Section 6. The word "manufacture" has been added. It was the intention of the old Ordin- ance (Ordinance 8 of 1899 Section 3) that manufacture should be controlled.

1

594

5. Section 7. Under the old Ordinance 8 of 1899 Section 4 all rules had to be certified by the Colonial Secretary and duly recorded in the districts. This was impossible to carry out and the districts have now been done away with.

6. Sections 9-11. The old powers are retained but given to the Distrier Officer instead of the Registrar General.

7. Section 12. Consequential alteration. The old section mentioned districts and sub-districts; these have been done away with.

8. Section 21. In part new. By an oversight in the old Ordinance the Assistant Land Officer could not legally administer an oath, etc. 9. Section 58. Words added so that a plaintiff can sue if a debt is contracted in the New Terri- tories. Under the old wording if a debt were entracted in the New Territories and the debtor moved to Hongkong before the action was brought it is doubtful if the case could be heard in the New Territories.

10. Section 72. Money changers' licences are to be issued by the District Officer in the Northern District and the Captain Superintendent of Police in the Southern District instead of by the Registrar General. This will be found more convenient in practice.

11. Section 73. Pawnbrokers' licences in the New Territories are to be issued by the District Officer and not by the Captain Superintendent of Police in the Northern District. It is more satisfactory that fees paid in the Territory should be collected there than in Hongkong,

A BILL

ENTITLED

An Ordinance to amend the Widows' and

Orphans' Pension Ordinance, 1908.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as The Widows' and Orphans' Pension Amendment Ordinance, 1911," and shall be read as one with the Widows' and Orphans' Pension Ordinance, 1908, hereinafter called "The Principal Ordinance" and with the Widows' and Orphans' Pension (Amendment) Ordinance, 1909.

2. Section 7 of the Principal Ordinance is hereby amended by the insertion at the end of sub-section (1) of the Principal the following further Proviso :-

Ordinance,

Right of public officer retiring and electing to contribute on former dollar salary.

Provided further that in the case of an officer holding a post the salary of which is on a dollar basis the abatement shall be made in dollars at four per centumn of his nominal salary and if such officer is in receipt of exchange compensation allowance such exchange com- pensation allowance shall be calculated upon such nominal dollar salary before the abatement at four per centum as aforesaid has been made."

3. The following section is hereby inserted after section 10 of the Principal Ordinance :-

"10.-(a.) In the case of a public officer retiring from the public service whose pension is paid on a dollar basis and who elects to contribute on the basis of his former dollar salary such pension shall be reduced by the amount of the abate- ment at four per centum of his former dollar salary and the balanco shall be payable to him converted into sterling at the rate of exchange at which he is entitled to receive such pen- sion."

Memorandum.

This amending Ordinance is necessary to remove doubts as to the interpretation of the existing Ordinance with regard to the method of fixing the amount of contribution to be paid by officers drawing salaries fixed on a dollar basis.
