Sir,
17th February
1904
I am directed by the Board of Trade to transmit
to you for the information of Mr. Secretary Lyttelton
the enclosed copy of a letter they have received from
Lloyd's Register of British & Foreign Shipping calling
attention to the objection of the Harbour Master at
Hong Kong to accept a Certificate of Survey granted
by one of Lloyd's Surveyors.
The Board of Trade desire me to state that they
will be glad if you will be so good as to inform them
whether the law and regulations in force in Hong
Kong would allow such Certificates to be accepted
there.
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your obedient Servant,
