DRAFT LETTER

To:-

G. de Basto, Esq.,

Type 1 +

Hong Kong Bar Association, Secretary's Chambers,

218, Marina House, Hong Kong

From

Lord Shepherd

Telephone No. & Ext.

Department

Thank you for your letter of 26 September

about our discussions on 9 August.

I have put to the Governor (as I undertook

to do) the points you raised with me and I

await his views. In the circumstances I am

sure you will understand that it would be quite

inappropriate for you to report to your

Association that we reached a measure of

agreement. In the course of the discussions

I may have expressed certain personal opinions,

but I was not in a position to record any

agreement with the points you made without

knowing the Governor's views on them.
