referred to would be borne in mind.

The note went on to suggest that in the event of difficulty in finding a basis for settlement, the Hong Kong Government should be approached, and consideration would be given to the setting up of a small arbitration board to discuss difficulties and to compromise settlements.

This board was in fact set up and assisted materially in settling a number of difficulties.

As to the legal point which you raise in the last paragraph of your letter, I am afraid it is an established practice of this Office not to give legal advice; I trust however that the above information will be of some assistance to you in the matter.

I regret that it is not possible to comply with the request made in the last paragraph of your letter as it is a long-established rule in this office not to express any opinion or offer advice on any legal issue between private parties.
