Tramways Ordinance, 1902, published in the Gazette of the 13th.

(as stated in the Memorandum attached to the Bill) to supply an

while the Bill to authorise the construction of the Tramway was

with others was referred to England for discussion between the
Colonial Office and the promoters' representatives.
