TELEVISION FOR HONG KONG
1.
You asked for advice on the attached letter from
Mr Dundas to Mr Royle.
2. Mr Royle has minuted that he would see the Rediffusion
representatives again. This is clearly right. But it would
be better to wait until we have more definite news of the
Governor's timetable for tendering and also about his
decision to postpone the third channel. His personal view
on this is explained in the attachment to his letter to me
of 28 November.
3. I attach a copy of a telegram which we have sent to
Hong Kong describing an approach from Colonel Stirling and
the Governor's asking for his comments. Unless you think it necessary to
contact Mr Dundas immediately, I recommend that a reply to
his letter should be delayed until we hear from the Governor.
