Government purposes, and the progress that had been made in disposing of the new building lots it contained, with the area still remaining for disposal. It would also contain a statement of accounts for each resumption showing the expenditure it had involved up to date both for resuming buildings and for laying out roads etc., within the resumed area, the receipts obtained in the form of premia for new building lots, as well as a general account giving the total expenditure and receipts for all the resumptions that had been undertaken up to the end of the year with which the report dealt.

If this proposal appears to you worthy of adoption the first report to be issued for 1904 would deal with the Taipingshan Resumption carried out in the years 1894 to 1895 embodying the information already communicated to you in Mr. May's Despatch referred to above, with the resumption carried out in the year 1902, of the area near Lower Lascar Row which formed the subject of Sir William Gascoigne's Despatch No. 223 of 27th May, 1902, and with the resumption recommended by Mr. Chadwick and Professor Simpson in the 4th and 26th paragraphs of their report of the 14th of May, 1902, and carried out in the years 1903 and 1904 of the interior of the block bounded by Gough Street, Queen's Road Central, Wellington Street and Aberdeen Street.
7. The comparatively small amount of the receipts from the sale of leases within the Taipingshan Resumption and the anticipated small proportion of receipts to outlay in connection with the Gough Street Resumption justify the doubt expressed in the 2nd and 3rd paragraphs of your Despatch
