"Mr Peter Blaker (Blackpool, South) to ask the
Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth
Affairs whether he will make a statement about
his recent visit to Hong Kong."
DRAFT ANSWER
I had wide ranging discussions with the Governor
and the official and unofficial members of the
Executive and Legislative Councils.
I also had the opportunity of addressing a
large gathering of businessmen, industrialists
and other leading members of the Community.
I was filled with admiration at Hong Kong's
achievements which are remarkable by any standards.
