ADDRESSED TO GOVERNOR HONG KONG TELEGRAM NUMBER 9 OF 12 NOVEMBER REPEATED FOR INFORMATION ROUTINE TO FOREIGN AND COMMONWEALTH OFFICE AND SAVING TO UKMIS GENEVA (FOR JONES) AND BRUSSELS (FOR DODGE).
MY TELEGRAM NUMBER 8: DAHRENDORF'S VISIT TO HONG KONG. TERFLOTH HAS BEEN IN TOUCH WITH US AGAIN ABOUT THE DINNER WITH THE FINANCIAL SECRETARY ON 15 NOVEMBER.
2. HE HAS DRAWN OUR ATTENTION TO THE COMMUNITY CUSTOM THAT A REPRESENTATIVE OF THE EEC MEMBER-GOVERNMENTS BE INVITED ON SUCH OCCASIONS: AND SUGGESTS THAT THE FINANCIAL SECRETARY MIGHT CARE TO INVITE THE GERMAN CONSUL-GENERAL TO REPRESENT HIS COUNTRY, WHICH CURRENTLY HAS THE PRESIDENCY OF THE COUNCIL OF MINISTERS. IF THE GERMAN CONSUL-GENERAL CANNOT COME,
HE SHOULD BE ASKED TO ARRANGE WITH CONSULS-GENERAL OF OTHER MEMBER-STATES WHO THE REPRESENTATIVE SHOULD BE.
FCO PLEASE PASS SAVING TO UKMIS GENEVA (FOR JONES).
