Sick Confrontation Prisoners in Hong Kong

Mr. Royle suggested at his meeting on 26 October that,

in the light of Mr. Crouch's prompt release, we should

telegraph the Acting Governor in Hong Kong to propose that,

if approved, the release of the second batch of three sick

prisoners (Hong Kong telegram No. 704) should preferably

take place at the end of next week. I submit a draft

telegram on these lines. Hong Kong Department agree.

2. Mr. Maddocks' letter of 21 October, attached, is

relevant.
