Article 14 Disallowance of Ordinances.

Any Ordinance made by the Commissioner in exercise of the powers conferred by this Order may be disallowed by Her Majesty through a Secretary of State.

Whenever any Ordinance has been disallowed by Her Majesty, the Commissioner shall cause notice of such disallowance to be published in the Official Gazette for the Territory and in such manner and at such place or places in the Territory as the Commissioner may from time to time direct.

Every Ordinance so disallowed shall cease to have effect as soon as notice of disallowance has been published as aforesaid; and thereupon any enactment repealed or amended by, or in pursuance of, the Ordinance so disallowed shall have effect as if such Ordinance had not been made, and, subject thereto, the provisions of section 16(1) of the Interpretation Act 1978^f1 shall apply to such disallowance as they apply to the repeal of an Act of Parliament.
