" The following Goods may, by Proclamation or
Order in Council, be prohibited either to be ex-
ported or carried coastwise :—Arms, Ammunition,
and Gunpowder, Military and Naval Stores, and
any Articles which her Majesty shall judge capable
of being converted into or made useful in increas-
ing the quantity of Military or Naval Stores, Pro-
visions, or any sort of Victual which may be used
as food by man, and if any Goods so prohibited
shall be exported from the United Kingdom or car-
ried coastwise, or be water-borne to be so exported
or carried, they shall be forfeited."
And whereas We have thought fit, by and with
the advice of Our Privy Council, to prohibit either
to be exported or carried coastwise, the Articles
hereinafter mentioned; that is to say—Arms, Am-
munition, and Military Stores (including Percus-
sion :Caps and Tubes), and also Lead (being an
article which We judge capable of being converted
into or made useful in increasing the quantity of
Military or Naval Stores), We, therefore, by and
with the advice of Our Privy Council, and by this
Our Royal Proclamation, do order and direct that,
from and after the date hereof, all Arms, Ammuni-
tion, and Military Stores (including Percussion
Caps and Tubes), and also Lead, shall be, and the
same are, hereby prohibited either to be exported
from the United Kingdom, or carried coastwise.
