cap. 111] THE GOVERNOR AND MINISTERS 165 been accepted later on. Moreover, he added that his con- demnation, unqualified and severe, of the conduct of the Colonial Office was mainly directed against the permanent heads. He protested against the issue of the royal instruc- tions to the Governor of Victoria. There had been, in his opinion, no change in the commission and instructions issued since 1850, although responsible government had been introduced in 1855. The Victorian Constitution Act gave power to the Crown, the Legislative Council, and the Legislative Assembly to make laws in and for Victoria in all cases whatsoever. Ministers chosen by the representative of the Crown advise him in all things relating to the conduct of the ordinary domestic affairs of State and the executive administration of existing laws, with the single exception created by statute law of the giving or withholding of the royal assent to, or the reservation of, Bills. Questions involving Imperial interests, including the control of Her Majesty’s military and naval forces, the questions affecting relations with foreign states, do not come within the purview of the Constitution Statute. As regards all such questions, the Governor is still an officer of the Imperial Government, and is bound to obey the instructions given to him either directly from the Crown or through the Secretary of State. With respect to the same questions and interests, Her Majesty’s Ministers for Victoria cannot tender responsible advice. They may, if they think fit—they will, so long as rational and friendly relations exist between the two Governments—assist the Imperial officer by all means in their power to perform his duties to the Imperial Government. But with respect to local affairs, subject to the single exception above mentioned, the case 1s wholly different. The statute does not by express grant convey any powers or prerogatives to the Governor. But the creation by statute of the system of responsible govern- ment necessarily involves the vesting in the representative of the Crown, upon his appointment and. by virtue of the statute, of all powers and prerogatives of the Crown necessary in the conduct of local affairs and the administration of law. Allow me to request your special attention to this point, that it is by virtue of the Constitution Acts themselves of the Australian Colonies—assuming those Acts to have created in each of the Colonies the system of responsible government—that the prerogatives and powers which are
