with Canada are
concerned, there is a need to reach agreement with the
Canadian Government on a basis which would enable trade
to continue at a level acceptable to the Government of Hong

ment can be made with the Canadian authorities which would
safeguard Hong Kong's position in the Canadian market, it will
be necessary to agree to a continuation of the existing
restraints, including if necessary their extension to cover
polyester/polynosic shirts, for a further period at a level
which the Hong Kong authorities are satisfied is the best
which can be obtained in the circumstances.

to examine whether the procedures for such consultation
as is required between the two Governments in connection
