Sir,

I have the honour to transmit for your favourable consideration the enclosed copy of a letter from the Acting Director of Public Works with enclosures, regarding a proposed exchange of lands at Kowloon to provide for improved means of communication. The scheme, which is fully detailed in the enclosures hereto, is the result of protracted negotiations between the Acting Director of Public Works and the Kowloon Wharf and Godown Company, and is of the nature of a compromise. Both the Government and the Company will gain by its adoption, and I recommend that it be approved.

Sir,

Your most obedient

Humble servant,

Officer Administering the Government.
