Thank you for your letter of 9 December about cotton textiles. I am very sorry that I have failed to send you an earlier acknowledgment, but I have brought your letter to the notice of those concerned here.
We
As you know, we had talks on this subject with Philip Haddon-Cave and Eric Ho on 6 and 7 December. had a useful exchange of views and it was agreed that we should have further talks in the week beginning 10 January in order to examine in more detail the implications of the decision for Hong Kong's trade in cotton textiles with the UK. During these further talks we will of course have Hong Kong's interests as a major supplier of cotton textiles to the British market very much in mind.
