I am directed by the Board of Trade to acknow-
letter of the 18th August
last (No. 27155) forwarding with other enclosures a
copy of an Ordinance passed by the Legislature of Hong Kong entitled "An Ordinance to amend the Vagrancy Ordinance, 1897 and in reply I am to forward herewith
a copy of a letter on the subject from the Chamber of
Shipping of the United Kingdom, and to offer for the
consideration of Mr. Secretary Lyttelton the follow-
ing observations which are based upon the assumption
that the provisions of the O-dinance are not ultra
vires the Constitution of the Goverment of Hong Kong.
As the Board of Trade in the letter under acknow-
ledgment are asked to express their opinion whether
the Ordinance may properly be allowed to remain in
operation, they desire me to preface their remarks by
saying that the question whether the internal economy
of a Colony calls for restrictive measures with re-
gard to the immigration of Aliens is one which it is
for the Colony itself, subject to the control of the
Colonial Office, to determine, and they understand there-
fore that they are merely asked to advise upon the
policy of the measure in its relation to the particu-
lar interest with which they are concerned, viz: the
Shipping Trade of the Empire.
