HC Deb 23 February 1927 vol 202 c1782W
Mr. LANSBURY

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he has received a Report from the Government of Hong Kong relative to the despatch of British troops to police the district of Shantaukok, a district 10 miles beyond the frontier of the British leased territory at. Kowloon; how many troops have been sent to this place; and how many British subjects there are requiring protection?

Mr. AMERY

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply returned to the hon. and gallant Member for Centra' Hull (Lieut.-Commander Kenworthy) on the 17th February, to which I have nothing to add.
