I and my colleagues in the Chamber were delighted
to get the news that in the E. E. C. Hong Kong is to be treated as a developing country in the context of the UNCTAD generalised preferences.
The brushing away of this threatening cloud as a result of your efforts has done much to brighten our prospects'
• and I would like you to know how grateful we are.
With every good wish for the continued success of
your negotiations.
