I have the honour to inform you

Lagd

that I have under consideration the

A

existing Letters Patent and Royal In-

atructions to the Governor of Hong

Kong with a view to making certain

amendments in the clauses affecting

Lao Executive na Legislative Councils

of the Colony.

2. As both these documents were

issued in 1888, the occasion seems a

convenient one for revising them gener-

ally and bringing them into line with

the more modern Instruments of the kind

I enclose drafts of the

3.

Letters Patent and Instructions,

which

it is proposed to submit for the

approval
