LETTER

To:-

GOVERNOR

HONG KONG

Type 1 +

From

Sir L. Mons on

Telephone No. & Ext.

Department

Many thanks for your letter of 12 August

about Haddon-Cave.

I confirm that F.C.O. Saving Despatch No. 284

was sent as a result of the agreement recorded in

our exchange of letters last January/February.

However, since you are not suggesting that the

matter should be reconsidered there will be no

difficulty here in delaying until November the

announcement that Haddon-Cave is to succeed John

Cowperthwaite as Financial Secretary in April,

1971.
