Objects and Reasons.
Hitherto it has been possible to control charges made by hotels under the Price Control (Hotels) (Control of Charges) Regulations, 1948. Under those regulations it is not possible, however, to control the allocation of accommodation and it would not therefore be possible to carry out that part of the recommendations of the Hotel Rates Advisory Committee which requires that a percentage of the accommodation in certain hotels be set aside for "resident guests.'
وو
2. This Bill is designed to provide legislation to empower the control of accommodation provided by and charges made by hotels by way of regulations to be made, under Clause 4 of the Bill, by the Quartering Authority, subject to approval of such regulations by resolution of Legislative Council.
3. Regulations which give effect to recommendations in the report of the Hotel Rates Advisory Committee appear in the Schedule to the Bill. Such regulations are applicable to the hotels referred to in regulation 2 and require the management of such hotels to reserve respectively for Hong Kong residents (as defined) the percentages of accommodation recommended by the Committee at rates for accommodation and services similarly recommended.
J. B. GRIFFIN,
Attorney General.
