Foreign Office, July 17, 1860

I enclose copies of letters from the Admiralty & Colonial Office respecting the question of granting leases of portions of the Kowloon Peninsula under the perpetual lease which has been agreed of that portion of Chinese Territory, & in compliance with the request of the Secretary of State for the Colonies, I have to instruct you to caution Sir C. Parker as to not granting any lease, whether for Colonial or other purposes, until the wants of the Imperial Govt. have been carefully considered.
