Hon. Director of Public Works,

Shing Kun Valley Scheme.

Owing to disturbances in Canton and the Province of Kwong Tung, Hongkong has become a sanctuary for many thousands of refugees. Many of these refugees return to their homes, but quite a large proportion find the conditions in Hongkong so much to their liking that they reman and make their permanent homes here, with the result that the populations of Victoria and Kowloon have increased at an abnormal rate, and restriction of water supply has had to be resorted to.

The present calculated capacities of the Hongkong and Kowloon Water Works during the minimum recorded dry period are roughly 8 million gallons and 1 million gallons per day respectively, and works now under construction will reise these quantities to roughly 9 million gallons and 24 million gallons per day respectively. The full development of the Island Catchment Areas will only yield barely another two million gallons per day, making a total of not quite 11 million gallons per day as their ultimate capacity. The full develop- ment of the existing kowloon Catchment Areas can only raise the existing supply to roughly 4 million gallons per day,

It will be seen from the accompanying graph of consumption that, without restriction, the normal consumption during 1924 for Hongkong might be estimated at fully 10 million gallons per day and for Kowloon about 3 million gallons per day-figures which nearly approach the ultimate capacities of our existing Catchment Areas when fully developed.

liminary Ostigations.

In 1921 investigations of new sources of supply were commenced and in 1922 a short Report was submitted making original proposals, which included the complete development of the Shing Mun River Valley and Southern Slopes of Taimoshan
