Sir,

With reference to Mr. Jones' letter of the
22nd instant (62821/29) enclosing a copy of a letter
from the Mercantile Bank of India Limited, I am directed
by the Lords Commissioners of His Majesty's Treasury to
suggest that, if Mr. Secretary Amery sees no objection,
the Bank should be informed that the required under-
taking should be given by means of a letter addressed to
the Governor of Hong Kong to the effect that no amal-
gamation scheme (including the purchase of shares or any
joint working or profit sharing arrangement with another
banking institution) to which the Bank may be a party
will be carried out without the prior approval of the
competent Departments of His Majesty's Government in
Great Britain.
A copy of this correspondence has been sent to
the Board of Trade.
The Under Secretary of State,
Colonial office.
I am, Sir,
Your obedient Servant,
R. V. Neid It opens Люркия
