Hon.

Honourable Members of the Legislative Council,

INTRODUCTION

(a) General

-

It is now just a year since my predecessor, Sir

Edward

Youde, presented his last address to this

Council. I should like to start this, my first address

to the Council, by again paying tribute to his

achievements in guiding Hong Kong

Kong through an anxious

period in its history. The best tribute and what he himself would have wished is to press on with the task of making Hong Kong a better and more prosperous home for all our people. This will be my firm resolve and that of the Government throughout the coming year. To achieve

this we shall be

shall be seeking the support and assistance of this Council and of all those concerned with public

affairs throughout the territory. I hope that what I have to say will demonstrate that we have practical and forward looking plans and that, with your help, they are

within our powers to accomplish.
