I

Strice, there has been

(which

Some delay I regret) in dealing

with the earlier letter from the

Federation

6.

Having regard to the above considerations,

the terms of a suggested reply to the Hong

Kong Federation of Students were put to the

Acting Governor in paragraph 3 of Mr Laird's

letter to him of 14 October and have been

agreed by the Acting Governor in his telegram

No 798.

I now recommend that a telegram be sent

to the Acting Governor on the lines of the

attached draft asking him to cause a reply

to be sent to the Federation, on Mr Royle's

behalf, in the terms already agreed with him.

8. The letter from the National Union of

Students (see (ii) of paragraph 1 above)

simply states the Union's strong support

for the proposals of the Language Action

Committee of the Hong Kong Federation of

Students and seeks the Minister's views on

the matter. I recommend that a reply to

the letter be sent on the lines of the attached

draft the terms of which have likewise been

agreed with the Acting Governor.

NOTHING TO BE WRITTEN IN THIS MARGIN
