For the better consideration of this question I have obtained from the Surveyor General a Return (copy of which is enclosed) showing the area and value of all lands in Victoria and Kowloon in Military occupation. It does not include lands outside Victoria and Kowloon occupied for Forts and defensive purposes.
M. Brown estimates the value of such lands as have been obtained by free grant from the Colonial Government at $4,442,205. The value of the lands rented and purchased by the War Department, he estimates at $541,611.
