CO-ORDINATION

30. The various agencies overseas are in frequent and constant

touch with their offices in Hong Kong. Those listed in paragraph 22 meet together in Hong Kong at approximately fortnightly intervals to discuss matters of common interest. One such matter is the question of the distribution of literature about Hong Kong: it is hoped that when one agency produces a feature, maximum and the most efficient and appropriate form of distribution can be arranged through each of the agencies.

31. It is hoped that there is good liaison between agencies

which have offices in the same countries. In Britain there is the London Public Relations Liaison Committee which meets regularly to discuss activities in Britain.
