THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE COLONIES

explained that the obligations of service would be

rather similar to those undertaken by members of the

Territorial Forces and would not prevent the men

called up from following their ordinary occupations.

thought it right to submit the matter to the Cabinet.

The Cabinet approved the enactment of the proposed compulsory Service Ordinance in Hong Kong.
