I am commanded by My Lords Commissioners of the

Admiralty to acquaint you, for the information of the

Secretary of State for the Colonies, that My Lords

have under consideration proposals to deepen certain

areas in Hong Kong Harbour and the approaches to a depth

of 64 fathoms.

My Lords consider it would be an advantage to

the Admiralty if arrangements could be made for this

work to be carried out by the Hong Kong Government on

their behalf after the dredging included in the present

contract is completed, which it is understood will be

about July or August 1935.

On the assumption that the Secretary of State

for the Colonies sees no objection in principle, I am to

state that the Naval Commander-in-Chief, China Station,

is being directed to enquire of His Excellency the

Governor of Hong Kong as to the conditions and terms

/under....

The Under Secretary of State,

Colonial office,

S.W.1.
