Tai Lam Chung Water Scheme
Woodwerd has advised that boring plant
will replace that lost during hostilities, and the
Treasury have agreed therefore that £5,000
estimated as necessary for preliminary work referred
to in your telegram No. 421 may be regarded as

covered by a Colonial Development and Welfare grant
from the Hong Kong allocation, but will not (repeat
not) preclude consideration of the scheme as a
whole qualifying for C.D. and W. assistance
