4. I am informed by the Superintendent of the
Botanical and Forestry Department that while the Ordinance
has in no way interfered with the legitimate trade in
azales plants carried on by Chinese nursery gardeners, the
destruction of azaleas growing on Crown land has practically
ceased as a result of its introduction.
I have the honour to be,
sir,
Your most obedient humble servant,
Anus Sever
Officer Administering the Goverment.
