For statistical purposes the two Health Districts of Kowloon have been sub- divided into nine sub-districts, of which 1, 6, 7 and 9 are in Health District 11, and 2, 3, 4, 5 and 8 in Health District 12. The dividing line between Health Dis- tricts 11 and 12 is Robinson Road and an imaginary line drawn from the junction of Robinson Road with Austin Road to the summit of the Lion Rock-one of the Kowloon range of hills. No. 1 sub-district comprises Tsim-tsa-tsoi to the South of Austin Road and to the East of Robinson Road; No. 2 being the corresponding half of Tsim-tsa-tsoi to the West of Robinson Road; Nos. 3, 4 and 5 lie to the West of the District boundary, No. 3 extending from Austin Road to the Nullah which emerges at the Yaumati Pumping Station (Waterloo Road), thence north- wards along the East side of Kowloon Inland Lot 757 till it meets the road leading from Yaumati to Ma-tau-wei and along this road to its junction with the path leading to Hunghom; No. 4 extending from this boundary to the proposed Nullah on the Northern boundary of Kowloon Marine Lot 66 and thence to the Northern and North-Eastern boundaries of Farm Lot 11 and along the extension of these boundaries to meet the path which runs between Farm Lot 4 and Farm Lot 6; and No. 5 extending from this path to the old boundary of British Territory and in- cluding the peninsula and reclamation on which stands the village of Taikoktsui; Nos. 6 and 9 lie to the East of the District boundary, No. 6 extending from Aus- tin Road to the Road from Fo Pang to Hunghom and including all Hunghom to the South of the proposed 100 feet road from Hunghom to Hok Ün, and thence to the sea along the Northern boundary of Kowloon Marine Lot 40, and No. 9 extending from these roads to the old boundary of British Territory; No. 7 com- prises all that portion of New Kowloon lying to the East of the District boundary as far as the Eastern boundary of the Kowloon European Reservation, returning along the Southern boundary of this Reservation until it meets a stream at Ngau Chi Wan and thence along the stream to the sea; while No. 8 comprises all that portion of New Kowloon lying to the West of the District boundary.
