Clause 143

Whenever the Director is of opinion that it is in the interests of any such woman or girl as is referred to in section 141 of this Ordinance that such woman or girl should be permitted to leave Singapore, the Director may grant such permission upon being supplied with such photographs of such woman or girl as he may require and upon security being given to his satisfaction that the person in whose custody or control such woman or girl appears to be will bring such woman or girl before such public officer within such period and at such destination as may be specified in the bond.

The giving of such further security shall not relieve any person who furnished the security required by section 141 of this Ordinance from any obligation under the conditions of the bond entered into under that section, other than the condition relating to departure from Singapore, unless the public officer in the territory where such woman or girl then resides obtains fresh security conditioned in the manner specified in section 141 of this Ordinance.

A certificate under the hand of the public officer referred to in subsection (1) of this section that such woman or girl has not been brought before him shall in any legal proceedings be conclusive evidence to that effect, unless the court requires such officer to be called as a witness.
