.....arms. is also inadequate in respect of both of the penalties it allows and the scope of its provisions for dealing promptly with preparations to manufacture bombs and other explosives. The Penal Code provides for the punishment of persons who cause hurt or mischief by means of explosive substances and it also deals with attempts to cause hurt or mischief but only when any act towards the commission of the offence is actually done. But it does not provide any penalty for making or possessing explosive substances with unlawful intent and it does not in other cases always provide such severe penalties as are requisite. The Governor-General in Council, therefore, considers it necessary to supplement the existing law by an Act on the lines of the English Explosive Substances Act, 1883, which was enacted for the expressed purpose of dealing with anarchist crimes. The Bill which has been drafted to give effect to this decision provides for a punishment of any person who causes an explosion likely to endanger life or property, or who attempts to cause such an explosion, or makes or has in his possession any explosive substance with intent to endanger life or property. It further makes.....

.....been preserved. The only clause which in any way alters the law at at present in force in clause 43(b). That clause corresponds to S. 43(b) of the Act, which enacts that the owner or master of a vessel must pay all expenses, required by S.228 of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1854 to be borne by him, before the grant of a port-clearance. The Statute of 1854 has been repealed by the present Merchant Shipping Act, 1894 (57 and 58 Vict.. Cap. 60). Section 207 of which makes the owner or master liable to pay a further item of expense in addition to the items mentioned in the corresponding Section (228) of the repealed Statute. The substitution of Section 207 of the existing Statute for the reference to the repealed Statute makes the scope of clause 43(b) of the Bill slightly wider than that of the corresponding provision of the existing Act. This is, however, in accordance with the spirit of the existing enactment. The Act has been withdrawn from certain ports mentioned in the first schedule, while certain new ports have been brought under its operation. The schedule has been amended accordingly........"- Gaz. of Ind.. 1908, Part V. page 309.An Act to condolidate the enactments.....
