COMMONWEALTH OFFICE,
London, S.W. 1.
14 August, 1968
I am afraid that we have had a further bill from the
Ministry of Defence in respect of extra costs arising from
assistance given during the disturbances last year. The
items of the bill are detailed in the enclosed copy of a
(2) letter which they have sent us. It may well be that these
additional items have already been notified to you by the
Command Secretary in Hong Kong. In any event, I am passing
the information on to you for the purposes of paragraph 4 of
ny letter to John Cowperthwaite of 16 July.
M. D. A. Clinton, Esq., G.M.,
Colonial Secretariat,
Hong Kong.
