One of the most glaring advant- ages Hong Kong has over the mainland is the number of piers. It is really very surprising that with so much traffic for the main land, there is only one decent pier along the waterfront that can be used for anything like an official landing, and even then, this pier is none too up-to-date. I refer to the Government Pier which is next to the Star Ferry Wharf.

One need only take a stroll along the Kowloon waterfront to sec what a disgraceful state this pier

In Hong Kong, we had Blake Pier and when this was getting to be too much of a public pier, the authorities very wisely, to my mind, conceived the idea of erect- ing a new pier. for special occa- sions with the result that we now have Queen's Pier which is a good enough pier for any occasion, Of course it would be a good thing if we had something on this scale in Kowloon but as it is, Hong Kong at least need 'never feel ashamed of welcoming any guest at Queen's Pier.

Of course I can ves an objection right away to the effect that the Kowloon waterfront is already too congested and that there is room for another pier.

I quite agree and I would add that I am not suggesting that an additional pier be erected. Jmeraly (ang humbly) suggest that the present Government Fier. be taken down

4. The Chamber is advised that, having regard to Section 12 of the Draft Bill, it is arguable that all rights of riparian owners both under the special agreements and at common law can be abolished in the event of the Bill being pass ed in its present form, in which case, presumably, compensation will be merely a matter of grace, as otherwise Section 12 would ap- pear to be merely a repetition Section 11.
