Under

retary of

State,

ning Street,

I am commanded by My Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty to acquaint you for the informatido of the

Secretary of State that They have under their considera-

tion a report made by the Senior Naval Officer at Hong

Kong in regard to the housing of Europeans appointed for

service at Hong Kong Dockyard who have been accompanied

to that place by their wives and families.

It is represented that owing to the insuffi-

ciency of married quarters, temporary arrangements have

been made, by the permission of the Military Authorities,

for twelve European employees with their families to

reside in Military married quarters. This arrangement

is, however, of a purely temporary nature and the General

Officer Commanding the troops at Hong Kong has indicated

that the quarters may have to be evacuated at very short

notice at any time.

It is also represented that some of the families

W

at present living in quarters are not suitably accomo-

onial Office,

dated but are unable to obtain better housing unless

3.7.1.

their allowances are increased.
