Negotiations with the Colonial Office

Negotiations were continued with the Colonial Office, and finally, on the 19th January, 1920, the Colonial Government agreed to the extension of the period from 31st December to 2nd April - another three months, but with the great rush of issues of capital by Companies in this country which have been able to show substantial profits for some years past, underwriters have been fully occupied with them, and whilst the Promoter is satisfied that if he had had six months clear run, to arrange his financial he would be successful, three months was altogether too short a time to deal with a proposition in Hong Kong, in view of the investigations and enquiries which responsible financial houses have to make.

The scheme is undoubtedly a vital necessity for Hong Kong, and the Concessionaire considers that it is grossly unfair of the Colonial Office to give him such a limited time to deal with the finance under the circumstances.

Those who are interested, with the Concessionaire, in the proposition are business men of standing in London.
