the Praya East reclamation scheme had
taken shape,
the Colonial Government could not have seen its way to
consent to the War Department reclamation being carried
out as it has been.
In these circumstances I am to enquire whether
His Excellency the General Officer Commanding will be
good enough to recommend to the War Department the modification of the Eastern boundary of their reclamation
shown on the plan.
If the War Department decide to share in the
Praya East reclamation scheme, and the terms on which
they could participate would have to be settled hereafter, it is considered that no difficulty would be
experienced in making an adjustment by which the War
Department would be compensated for the loss of their
existing reclamation which would be occasioned by the
adoption of the boundary shown on the plan.
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your obedient servant,
F. May.

Colonial Secretary.
