HC Deb 02 May 1956 vol 552 c392
34. Mr. Rankin

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies the date when the polling station in the outlying district of Wanchai in Hong Kong was moved into the central district.

Mr. Hare

The change was notified in the Hong Kong Government Gazette of 27th January.

Mr. Rankin

Is the Minister aware that in replying to me on 14th December his right hon. Friend said that the two polling stations concerned were in the most densely populated part of Hong Kong, and that the change of location of this one took place only a month or six weeks after he made that statement in the House of Commons?

Mr. Hare

I am not quite sure what the hon. Gentleman is getting at, but if he would be good enough to have a word with me afterwards I would be only too delighted to discuss it with him.
