Is the 16th article in
Schedule B. I am to request
then that Lord Granville
will inform Lord Kimberley
Whether there is
any objection
to the appointment of British
Consuls in the Chinese Ports as
Emigration officers, in order to avoid the difficulty raised by Mr Panncefote as to the
Validity
of that article.

E. When the proposed Emigration Ordinance has been passed
and approved by Her Majesty, the Consuls should, I presume, be appointed Emigration Agents by
