例6.
For the purpose of the Landlord and the Tenant Ordinance and for the purpose of these presents the rent in respect of the said premises shall be deemed to be in arrear if not paid in advance as stipulated by Clause 1 hereof. (ibid.)
基于租务条例并基于这些通知，有关该楼宇的租金，如果未照合约第一条规定的那样提前缴付，就应该被认为是 拖欠。

当purpose以复数形式，即当for the purposes of..._出现在法律篇章中，并且与某个具体的条例编号搭配在一起时，该短语的“目的性”更是丧失殆尽。例如：
例7.
For the purposes of section 37，the Commissioner may，either by notice in writing served by registered post or by notice in the Gazette, require any employer or class of employers to send to him all or any records of sickness days in respect of any period not exceeding 2 years preceding the date of the notice. (Laws of Hong Kong，Cap. 57，Employment Ordinance, Art. 38)
为施行第37条，处长可借挂号邮递方式送达通知书， 或借宪报公告，要求任何雇主或任何类别雇主向其呈交通知书或公告日期前两年内任何期间的全部或任何病假日记录。
