Including the orders-in-council, ordinances, public notices, proclamations, regulations, etc.: comp. by Norman Bentwich, Attorney-General of Palestine, Vol. 1–2, Alexandria, Egypt, Whitehead Morris Ltd., pr. for the Gov. of Palestine, 1926. (As the preface acknowledges, this work is not a proper revision, but merely an attempt to collect in one place “all the legislation issued since Dec., 1917, which is still valid and in force, whatever its original form.” Rather than being grouped in a subject classification, the materials are generally arranged in chronological order. Vol. 1 covers orders-in-council and ordinances. Vol. 2 covers regulations, public notices, proclamations, rules of court, agreements and royal instructions. The collection makes no attempt to cover that part of Ottoman Law which remained in force. Bentwich notes in his preface: “While the principal parts of the Ottoman administrative law have been or are being rapidly replaced, the Ottoman Codes of Civil Law, Civil Procedure, Commercial Law and Penal Law have remained in operation, with slight amendment.”—p. iv)
