on the dredging could be more advantageously expended on the harbour in some other direction.

3.
You will note from the accompanying telegram
that if the proposed work is to be entrusted to the
Netherlands Harbour Works Company it is necessary for
a contract to be arranged before the 15th April and
it is important therefore that the matter should be
dealt with promptly. I shall be glad to know if
you consider the Netherlands Harbour Works Company
is a suitable firm to undertake work of the nature
proposed.
4. Your advice is not required in connection
with the references in the Governor's telegram to
the Kaitak reclamation; the question of the dredging
should be considered on its own merits irrespective
of any use that may be made of the dredging materials.
Yours faithfully,
