HONG KONG POLICE RESERVE.
ANNUAL REPORT.
The Hong Kong Police Reserve has been maintained throughout the year on the same lines as before.
Strength.--The strength of the Force has shown but slight decrease, the few resignations having been caused through lack of time and transfer of members to other places.
The strength of the Contingent is as follows:-
1930 1929 Chinese Company 72 78 Indian Company 49 53 Flying Squad 42 34 Sharpshooters' Company 31 34 Total 194 199Leave. Mr. D. L. King, Deputy Superintendent of Police (Reserve) was granted 8 months' leave of absence from the Colony, from March 19th, 1929, and Mr. W. Kent, A. S. P. took over the duties as Adjutant, Hong Kong Police Reserve from that date.
Commendations.-During the year, no commendations were awarded to the Police Reserve, but that by no means indicates lack of interest by members of the Force.
Training. Training has been continued at both the Police Training School and at Central Police Station, attendance at both places having been satisfactory.
Special Training.-Signalling, Life Saving and "First Aid to the Injured" were started in the Force. The Chinese Company only have proved successful so far.
