Law (1836) on the public library

Regulation confirmed by Order of His Majesty in Council

CONSIDERING that it is necessary to effect changes to the Regulation governing the Public Library, and that there would be great inconvenience in having, every time some modifications thereto are needed, to address a request to His Majesty for confirmation in the form of a Law, which hinders the introduction of changes on a trial basis:  the States have resolved to seek the sanction of His Most Excellent Majesty in Council to permit the States to introduce such changes to the Regulation governing the Library as they shall judge necessary.
