Separate

I request your attention to the established rule that Laws passed
in the Colony under your Government when sent home shall be accompanied
by a marginal abstract of each separate clause.

The large number of Colonial enactments which require a more or
less minute examination in this Office renders it very inconvenient
that rules calculated to facilitate that examination should be neglected.

Observing that in the Colony under your government the marginal
abstracts are frequently wanted, I find it necessary to call your
attention to the omission, and to request that you will give such
directions as will prevent its recurrence.
