Asa result of the enactment of Exchange Control legislation in British Guiana, movements of currency notes by travellers from
that Territory to other Territories participating in the Currency Agreement appear to have become abnormal since 1962 and
the circulation in some Territories, on the basis of issues less withdrawals, adjusted to take account of Bunk transfers. has in
consequence become unrewlistic and in fact misleading. It will be noted that the valte of notes withdrawn at St. Kitts
exceeded those issued in that territory.

Passed the Legislative Council this

Clerk of the Council.
OBJECTS AND REASONS
The object of this Bill is to make sundry amendments to
the Immigration and Passport Act, 1945.
2. Clause % of the Bill seeks to define ‘“ gainful employ-
mentâ€, and the. clause read together with the proposed
re-enactment of section 11 (which relates to the control of
entry) and the proposed re-enactment of the provisions of
section 17 (which deals with bona fide visitors to the Territory)
would provide that any person intending to land in the Terri-
tory, other than a bona fide visitor as now defined, and
generally speaking, a person who is deemed to belong to the
Colony, must be in possession of a valid permit in writing
granted to him under the Act.
Clause 2 also seeks to amend section 2 of the Act to define
more clearly cases where a person could be deemed to have or
not to have landed in the territory.
3. Clause 3 would amend section 3 of the Act to pre-
scribe more fully the duties and powers of immigration officers,
and confers power upon an immigration officer to interrogate a
person (other thun a person who is deemed to belong to
Antigua) who desires to enter the Territory.
4, Clause 4 seeks to furnish the sanction for interoga-
tories with a necessary safeguard to protect the privilege of
witnesses. .
5. Clause 5 seeks to amend section 5 of the Act (which
enumerates the classes of prohibited immigrants) with the view
of better securing the exclusion from the Colony of the classes
of persous mentioned therein, for example, prostitutes,
Antigua, 16 Immigration and Passport Act No. of 1964,
(Amendment) Ordinance.
6. Clause 7 would empower an immigration officer to
require s person who is about to depart from the Territory to
produce documents to him for inspection.
~
7. Clause 8, which as stated above, defines a bona fide
visitor, would of course include the tourist or other short term
visitor, and it is considered that the genuine visitor would, by
the intended provision, be reasonably ‘free from restriction pro-
vided he keeps the peace and does not engage in giinful
employment. This power to permit entry for a limited | period
may, it is felt, be exercised in cases where inquiry may be
necessary to check whether an outsider has really come to the
Territory for the sake of his health, or whether she is a genuine
student or prostitute. Entrants who desire to stay longer than
6 months would be subject to the conditioms relating to entry
permits set out in clause 9.
8. Clause 10 would empower a customs officer or police
officer to perform the duties of an immigration officer in
certain cases.
9. Clause 11 is an enabling clause which seeks to enable
regulations to be made relating to deposits and to the forfeiture
of deposits.
10. Clause 12 seeks to make it an offence for an employee
to employ a person who, in contravention of the provisions of
the Act, ig not in possession of a work permit.

Asa result of the enactment of Exchange Control legislation in British Guiana, movements of currency notes by travellers from
that Territory to other Territories participating in the Currency Agreement appear to have become abnormal since 1962 and
the circulation in some Territories, on the basis of issues less withdrawals, adjusted to take account of Bunk transfers. has in
consequence become unrewlistic and in fact misleading. It will be noted that the valte of notes withdrawn at St. Kitts
exceeded those issued in that territory.

Passed the Legislative Council this

Clerk of the Council.
OBJECTS AND REASONS
The object of this Bill is to make sundry amendments to
the Immigration and Passport Act, 1945.
2. Clause % of the Bill seeks to define ‘“ gainful employ-
mentâ€, and the. clause read together with the proposed
re-enactment of section 11 (which relates to the control of
entry) and the proposed re-enactment of the provisions of
section 17 (which deals with bona fide visitors to the Territory)
would provide that any person intending to land in the Terri-
tory, other than a bona fide visitor as now defined, and
generally speaking, a person who is deemed to belong to the
Colony, must be in possession of a valid permit in writing
granted to him under the Act.
Clause 2 also seeks to amend section 2 of the Act to define
more clearly cases where a person could be deemed to have or
not to have landed in the territory.
3. Clause 3 would amend section 3 of the Act to pre-
scribe more fully the duties and powers of immigration officers,
and confers power upon an immigration officer to interrogate a
person (other thun a person who is deemed to belong to
Antigua) who desires to enter the Territory.
4, Clause 4 seeks to furnish the sanction for interoga-
tories with a necessary safeguard to protect the privilege of
witnesses. .
5. Clause 5 seeks to amend section 5 of the Act (which
enumerates the classes of prohibited immigrants) with the view
of better securing the exclusion from the Colony of the classes
of persous mentioned therein, for example, prostitutes,
Antigua, 16 Immigration and Passport Act No. of 1964,
(Amendment) Ordinance.
6. Clause 7 would empower an immigration officer to
require s person who is about to depart from the Territory to
produce documents to him for inspection.
~
7. Clause 8, which as stated above, defines a bona fide
visitor, would of course include the tourist or other short term
visitor, and it is considered that the genuine visitor would, by
the intended provision, be reasonably ‘free from restriction pro-
vided he keeps the peace and does not engage in giinful
employment. This power to permit entry for a limited | period
may, it is felt, be exercised in cases where inquiry may be
necessary to check whether an outsider has really come to the
Territory for the sake of his health, or whether she is a genuine
student or prostitute. Entrants who desire to stay longer than
6 months would be subject to the conditioms relating to entry
permits set out in clause 9.
8. Clause 10 would empower a customs officer or police
officer to perform the duties of an immigration officer in
certain cases.
9. Clause 11 is an enabling clause which seeks to enable
regulations to be made relating to deposits and to the forfeiture
of deposits.
10. Clause 12 seeks to make it an offence for an employee
to employ a person who, in contravention of the provisions of
the Act, ig not in possession of a work permit.
