I enclose copies of petitions addressed to
Her Majesty The Queen from the Reform Club of Hong
Kong and from Mrs. Elsie lliott, an elected Member
of the Urban Council of Hong Kong. Both petitions
concern the Public Crder Ordinance 1967 which
received the Covernor's assent on 16th November, 1967.
The petition from the Refora Club asks that
Her Majesty exercise lier power of disallowance in
respect of the Ordinance and Mrs. Elliott's petition
supports that of the Reform Club. I shall be grateful
if both petitions may be laid before Her Majesty.
The contents of the petitions have been carefully
considered but do not, in view of the Secretary of
State, warrant his recommending that the Ordinance be
disallowed. His advice to er Majesty therefore is that
the reply to both petitions should be that they have been
laid before Her Majesty but that the Secretary of State
was unable to advise Her Majesty that the petitions
should be granted.
