Access to Grey by staff of British Mission in Peking was permitted on 23rd April, 1968, the first since his confinement on 21st July,
1967. There is also evidence that the
conditions under which Grey is held have been relaxed slightly, in that he has been allowed
to write a letter home and is allowed on
occasions to collect sore of his belongings
from other parts of his house.
Special visits by personnel of the Hong Kong
Branch of the N.C.N.A. and communist newspaper
representatives were permitted on 9th and 10th April, 1968, to 15 persons employed by local communist newspaper organisations who were serving prison sentences in Hong Kong. (N.B. These prisoners have received normal monthly visits by relatives and friends since their conviction in 1967).
