THE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY IN COUNCIL.

W HEREAS by subsection (1) of section 84 of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1894 (57 & 58 V. c. 60), it is enacted that whenever it appears to His Majesty The King in Council that the tonnage regulations of the said Act have been adopted by any foreign country and are in force there, His Majesty in Council may order that the ships of that country shall, without being remeasured in His Majesty's dominions, be deemed to be of the tonnage denoted in their certificates of registry or other national papers, in the same manner, to the same extent, and for the same purposes as the tonnage denoted in the certificate of registry of a British ship is deemed to be the tonnage of that ship:

And whereas by subsection (2) of the said section it is (amongst other things) provided that His Majesty in Council may make the Order subject to such conditions and qualifications (if any) as His Majesty may deem expedient:

And whereas it appears to His Majesty that the tonnage regulations of the said Act have been adopted by the Republic of Poland and are now in force in that country:

Now, therefore, His Majesty, in virtue of the powers vested in him by the said section, by and with the advice of His Privy Council, is pleased to order, and it is hereby ordered, as follows:

1. This Order may be cited as the Polish Tonnage Order, 1935.

2. Polish ships, the certificates of registry or other national papers of which are dated on or after the 30th November, 1927, shall be deemed to be of the tonnage denoted in such certificates of registry or other national papers in the same manner, to the same extent, and for the same purposes as the tonnage denoted in the certificate of registry of a British ship is deemed to be the tonnage of that ship.

3. This Order shall apply to Polish ships when within any part of His Majesty's dominions, other than the Union of South Africa or the Irish Free State; provided that if the Governor in Council of the Dominion of Canada shall make an Order having within Canada the same effect as this Order, then this Order shall cease to apply to Polish ships when within the Dominion of Canada as from the date on which the said Order of the Governor in Council comes into force.
