Mr. Tickle was granted sick leave in August, his place up to the end of the year being filled by Mr. I. M. Xavier.
Owing to lack of accommodation in the P.W.D. Building, an Office was temporarily rented from the Military Authorities for the use of certain of the staff under the direction of Mr. Tickle detailed for the purpose of preparing the necessary drawings, &c.
A large number of maps and plans were prepared, a model of the Kowloon Peninsula to the summit of the first range of hills (scale 200′ to 1 inch) was made, and many surveys, more especially contour ones, were undertaken in connection with the work.
The Committee met upon a considerable number of occasions and by the end of the year had practically completed its recommendations with respect to Kowloon,
The Committee will continue to sit in the coming year to consider the problems of development of the Island of Hongkong,
