The legal issues before the court were whether the amendment to the Liquor Regulations was validly made under the powers conferred by the Liquor Ordinance and if the new form for the return of liquor purchased was in compliance with the legislative requirements. The court had to consider if the amendment was procedurally correct and if the changes to the form met the legislative intent.

The court found that the amendment to the Liquor Regulations was validly made under the powers conferred by the Liquor Ordinance. The new form for the return of liquor purchased was also deemed to be in compliance with the legislative requirements. The court ruled that the Minister of State for the Interior had the authority to make the amendment, and the changes to the form were consistent with the legislative intent. As such, the amendment was upheld.

The court concluded that the amendment to the Liquor Regulations was valid and in accordance with the Liquor Ordinance 1929-1951. The new form for the return of liquor purchased was deemed to be compliant with the legislative requirements, and the amendment was upheld. The court's decision affirmed the Minister's authority to make the amendment and the compliance of the new form with the legislative intent.
