AUG OR!
Admin reply to your letter of the 7th August 1903, No. 25263/1903, giving an explanation of the reasons why
it is considered necessary that if any transfer of
Colonial Military lands in Hong Kong to the Navy or vice
versa is made, it must be effected through the interven-
tion of the Colonial Government; I am commanded to ex-
press the thanks of Their Lordships of the Admiralty for
the assistance which the Secretary of State for the
Colonies has given them in this somewhat difficult and
complicated matter.
Their Lordships are glad to understand that no
expense is likely to fall on Naval Votes in the case of
this particular transfer at Hong Kong.
2. I am however to invite attention to two
points raised in your letter, and to ask that My Lords' views on these points may be further considered.
3.
Paragraph 2 of your letter under reply
states that the arrangements proposed only refer to lands
"granted" by the Colonial Government without payment.
My Lords consider that the term "granted"
should not be held to apply to lands taken over by the Army or Navy when Colonies were first occupied or captured.
