Your telegram No. 1044.

The Acting Commissioner has asked me to convey to the Minister of State Mrs. Judith Hart and yourself the sincere thanks of all ranks of the Hong Kong Police Force, including the Commandant and all ranks of the Auxiliary Police Force, for the kind message of appreciation received today, which he proposes to publish in Headquarters Orders.

All police formations are now rested and Acting Commissioner is confident that they are ready to meet any calls that may be made upon them with resolution and restraint.

I am glad to report that only one injured constable is still detained in hospital, and he is progressing favourably.
