645
(C) Having regard to the position
of Hong Kong
as a Crown Colony,
and to
the fact that the discretion of the Governor
under Section II is under the control of
the Secretary of State, the power in substance
of the Secretary of State to control the traffic
in question is in any case quite free from
doubt.
