Mr Rippon wrote on 13 August to the Chairman of the
Hong Kong Association in London, agreeing to meet a deputation
from the Association at allater date to discuss the questions
for Hong Kong raised by our entry to the EEC. It was not possible
at the time of writing to suggest a date for the meeting but
Mr Rippon promised to write again and propose a date, probably
in early October.
2. I submit a draft letter suggesting 22 October as a
possible date, when I believe Mr Rippon will be free to see
the Association at 5 p.m.
