Section 32 Application of provisions of Act by Order in Council.
United Kingdom
Her Majesty may by Order in Council make provision for extending all or any of the provisions of this Act relating to return to Commonwealth countries (other than this section) to any colony, with the substitution of a reference to that colony for any reference to the United Kingdom, and with such other exceptions, adaptations or modifications as may be specified in the Order.
Without prejudice to the generality of subsection (1) above, an Order in Council under this section may—
so far as it extends to any colony provisions of this Act relating to the return of persons to and the treatment of persons returned from designated Commonwealth countries, apply those provisions in relation to the Republic of Ireland as they apply in relation to a designated Commonwealth country;
so far as it extends to any colony provisions of this Act relating to the return of persons to and the treatment of persons returned from colonies, apply those provisions in relation to the United Kingdom as they apply in relation to a colony.
An Order in Council under this section may make such provision as appears to Her Majesty to be necessary or expedient in consequence of or in connection with the provisions of section 1(1) of the Hong Kong Act 1985 for the purposes of the surrender of persons from a British overseas territory to the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China and the treatment of persons surrendered to a British overseas territory from that Region.
Any Order in Council under this section shall be subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament.
