Police Bill Observations
4. Board
§.7.
Salaries always discretionary
Reference to
Table of Precedents
[6] §. 7. Page 21. [With such Salaries] In every instance
of a Board established by Act of Parliament,
the quantum of the Salaries has been left
to the discretion of the Crown. - See the annexed Table of Precedents
in regard to Boards - a Paper accompany
The reasons seem too obvious to need mentioning.
§7
34
Commissioners of
Police - Board
of Police - Appropriate
divisions
necessary
[7] §. 7. Page 21. [Commissioners of Police] For the purposes
of reference, there will be a convenience in
fixing this in this way, in the Act Statute itself, the name by
which the Commissioners appointed in virtue of it
shall be distinguished. The occasions for mentioning
them in future Statutes will probably be not infrequent:
and even in the present Bill if an appropriate
name be not allotted to them it may be
difficult if not impossible to introduce the mention
of other Boards - of other sets of Commissioners
- without confusion - A similar clause in
purpose does not seems scarcely necessary for authorizing
the use of the Term Board of Police: since Com
the instances, in which the several sets of Commissioners are frequently
referred to in that way in the Statute Book, are
not infrequent. The word Board will be necessary,
were it only for the purpose of distinguishing
the set of Town Commissioners from the single
Commissioners - the Country Commissioners - hereinafter
introduced.
§7.
35
Police Fund
appropriate
name necessary
[8] § 7. Page 21. [shall be termed the Police Fund]
When mention comes to be made of this particular fund,
whether for the purpose of being charged or for the purpose
of receiving supplies, the inconvenience will would be considerable
if it could no otherwise be designated, than by a vague
and unexpressive uncharacteristic circumlocution - such
as - the fund created for the purposes of this Act.
