As you know, the Secretary of State is to take part

in a programme called "London Calling Hong Kong" which ABC Television is preparing for showing on the inauguration day of Wireless Television in Hong Kong (19 November). The

Secretary of State's contribution is to be recorded at 5 p.m. on Tuesday, 17 October.

The producer offered the questions in the first

attachment to this minute. In consultation with Feve

Department, I selected four of these and added a fifth.

This, I think, provides sufficient material for a contribution

which is, I understand, timed to run about six minutes. To

help us, we were provided with the contributions already

recorded by Sir Robert Black and Sir Alexander Grantham,

These form the second attachment to this minute.

3. In the third attachment, which I submit før your

consideration, are draft answers to these questions. Those

have been discussed with Mr. Gass and the manuscript amend-

ments reflect his comments. The last part of the answer to

Question 5 may be a little "saucy" but Mr. Gass and I vere

both agreed that we mast block any attempt to pursue this

question with the Secretary of State and must also by

implication indicate that the Secretary of State could not

associate himself with the "projected viewe" of Sir Alexander

Grantham.

4. I am sending a copy of this minute to Sir Saville Garner

and, for information only at this stage, to Mr. J.R. Williams.
