HONGKONG HARBOUR DEVELOPMENT.
Referring to my interview with yourself and the
Hon. Director of Public Works on 3rd inst., I have the
honour to report as follows on the two points on which
my opinion was asked, viz:-
(1) Whether the proposed Reclamation between
North Point and quarry Bay could be
advantageously developed for shipping
purposes; and
(2) Whether the lay-out of the piers in the
Hung Hom Bay Development plan, as
recommended by Messrs. Coode, Fitzmaurice,
Wilson & Mitchell, could be modified,
without detriment to the general scheme,
so as to provide one or more deep-draft
steamer berthe easily accessible from the
existing property of Messrs. Alfred Holt
& Co. at Kowloon Point.

North Point Reclamation.
In this connection I have had the benefit of
reading the Minutes of the Director of Public Works dated 13/6/22, 7/3/23, and 4/4/23, Messrs. Coode, Fitzmaurice, Wilson & Mitchell's Report of 7/10/22, and Mr. Duncan's
memorandum of 9/1/23.
Referring to this report of the Consulting
Engineers, it appears that they consider the North Point
Fon. The Colonial Secretary,
