GOVERNMENT HOUSE,

HONG KONG,

17th January, 1933.

With reference to the second paragraph of

your despatch No.401 of the 5th November, 1932, on

the subject of the Foreshores and Seabed Amendment

Ordinance, 1932, I have the honour to enclose a

copy of a memorandum by Mr. H. K. Holmes, Crown

Solicitor, dealing with the point raised in your

despatch.

2. That part of Section 5 of Ordinance No.15

of 1901 which has been repealed by the amending

Ordinance appears to belong more appropriately to

the Fiers Ordinance No. 11 of 1899 and its insertion

in that Ordinance will be considered when a

suitable opportunity occurs.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient, humble servant,

THE RIGHT HONOURABLE

home

Governor, &c.
