RECEIVED

JOOL

21 JAN 1933

In your letter dated 5th October, 1951, you were good

enough to send to this Office a copy of the Report received

from the Governor of Hong-Kong dealing with the Mui Tsai

question and covering the period of six months ending May

31st, 1931. If similar Reports were submitted by the

Governor during 1932, I should be greatly obliged if I might

be supplied with copies of them.

Further, I should be grateful if I might be informed

whether the two Chinese female Inspectors referred to in your

letter of October 5th have now been appointed, in addition

to the European Sub-Inspector of Police, to carry out the

inspection of registered Mui Tsai.

I am, Sir,

Your obedient servant,

The Under-Secretary of State,

Colonial Office,

Downing Street, S.W.1.
