The Empire reproduces an announcement from the Attorney General on the enactment of the Treason Felony Act. The Attorney General points out that 'an impression seems to exist that the Treason Felony Act has been disallowed. This is not the fact ... In point of law, the approval of her Majesty is not necessary to the validity of any Act passed by the Parliament of this colony. Her Majesty may within two years from the passing of the Act disallow it; but if not expressly disallowed it remains in force.'
