who misbehave or whose behaviour is not, in the opinion of the Governor-in-Council, conducive to the public good. The Bill does not apply to any British subject who was born, or naturalised as such, in Hong Kong, or who was registered as such in the Colony under Section 7(2) of the British Nationality Act 1948. Nor does it apply to the wives or children of such persons.
The Government of Hong Kong is fully competent to enact such legislation and there is no Imperial statute which gives a British subject, as such, either the right to enter a British overseas territory or exemption from removal or deportation from such territory Similarly, a British passport is not intended to confer any such right or exemption on its holder. As you are no doubt aware, the United Kingdom's own immigration legislation is such that citizens of the United Kingdom and Colonies who belong to dependent territories (including Hong Kong) and who are not United Kingdom patrials are subject to immigration control on entry into this country.
