The amendments which Mr Lyttelton would suggest are noted in red ink, but he proposes at the same time to point out to the Officer Administering the Government that there is no necessity for penalising or for prohibiting bounty-fed sugar, provided that if re-exported either in its original state or after being refined it is accompanied by a certificate of the origin of the sugar originally imported; but that if, as Mr Lyttelton understands is the case, no sugar reaches Hong Kong from any bounty-giving British Colony, such for instance as Australia, probably the simplest way of giving effect to Article VIII of the Brussels Sugar Convention in a free Port such as Hong Kong, where there is at present no Customs Establishment, would be to prohibit the importation of all foreign sugar declared to be bounty-fed by the Brussels Permanent Sugar Commission.
