objection to him answering any questions which may be put to him.
They are, however, proposing to send an officer
from the Works Department to Singapore this summer on a visit
of inspection and if the Hong Kong Government are agreeable,
would be willing that he should visit Hong Kong. Before his
departure the officer selected could obtain full information
to the views of the Air Staff regarding possible future
Royal Air Force developments at Hong Kong and could discuss
with the Department of the Director of Civil Aviation probable
lines of development of civil air communications in the Far
East.
He would thus be in a position to give the Hong Kong
Government the latest information available in this Department
regarding the requirements of both the Royal Air Force and
Civil Aviation.
The Council would be glad to be informed as soon as
possible whether the Hong Kong Government desire the necessary
arrangements for such a visit to be made.
I am,
Sir,
Your obedient Servant,
9. Wahli.
