Piracy Regulations Committee.

93

The first meeting of the Piracy Regulations Committee was held on Friday 5th December, 1924. There was a full

attendance.

-

The Chairman (Lieutenant Commander Hake) said that

copies of the existing Piracy Prevention Ordinance and

Regulations and of the proposed amendments were in the hands of the members, and he would read the report of a

representative meeting, held in London at which the metter

had been discussed. It was subsequently arranged that members should be furnished with copies of the report. In

answer to Mr. Brown, he stated that the scope of the

Committee was confined to the discussion of the amendments

proposed.

Mr. Brom declared that the Chamber of Commerce had

always held that the first necessity was the institution of

a proper system of patrols, which it was the duty of the

Imperial Government or the Hong ang Government to provide.

In these circumstances and in view of the short notice he

had received, it was impossible for him to discuss without

reference to the Chamber, the details of measures to be

adopted on board ships, when the Chamber was convinced that

the only adequate protection must be from the outside.

The Chairman said that in no circumstances could the

system of patrole be put in force in less than a year, while

the proposed amendments were for immediate application. They

had to discuss not an alterative policy, but the revision

of the existing policy which had been found in points

defective.

Lieutenant Commander Laurensm agreed with Mr. Brown. Be quoted a letter from the Government of 16th February, 1924, on the institution of convoys and asked how much had

been done.
