1630 ADDENDA applies to the naval forces raised and provided by a Dominion before or after the Act to which the provisions of the Naval Discipline Act, 1866, and amending Acts have been made applicable, the Act of 1866 as amended subject to any adaptations which may have been or may be made by the Dominion to adapt the Act to the circum- stances of the Dominion, including the substitution of Governor- General for Admiralty, and empowers the Crown by Order in Council to modify the Act so as to regulate the relations of the Imperial forces to those of the Dominions, but if the ships of a Dominion are placed at the disposal of the Admiralty the Act of 1866 shall apply without such modifications and adaptations. The Act does not operate in any case unless provision is made for its coming into effect by the Dominion, and presumably the Dominion Parliament can terminate its effect as regards that Dominion. The Common- wealth in 1911 has amended its Naval Defence Act of 1910 and has reduced the length of senior cadet training. The Union of South Africa do not propose in their Defence Bill to start a naval force, but only to continue the Royal Naval Reserve branch, while they will develop the artillery forces which now serve to supplement the Imperial garrison artillery! Page 1588. The power of the Governor to grant lands in the absence of an Act is also discussed in Cunard v. The King, 43 8. C. R. 38, especially at pp. 95-8 by Duift J. ! The Naval Reserve will be formed under the authority of the Imperial Acts of 1865 and 1909 (see ss. 21, 22). The Bill provides also for compulsory cadet training from 13-17 in populous areas (s. 6), and for a military college on a modest scale (s. 47). The Memorandum accompanying the Bill recog- nizes (p. 4) that defence of the coast and shipping depend on the British Navy, but (p. 1) asserts the duty of South Africa to assume a responsibility for her own defence. Co-operation with Imperial military forces is provided for in ss. 13, 15, 97. The Act will ultimately repeal Cape Acts No. 32 of 1892, 4 of 1893, 16 of 1895, Natal No. 36 of 1905, 30 of 1905, 36 of 1906; Transvaal Ordinances No. 37 of 1904 ; Act No. 21 of 1908, and it repeals forthwith Cape Acts No. 7 of 1878, 4 of 1884; Natal No. 22 of 1907; Orange River Colony Ordinance No. 25 of 1905; and the Cape and Natal Naval Volunteers Acts of 1908 and 1907.
