There have been some changes in the plans of both
Mr Walker and Mr Heseltine as outlined in my minute of
8 February.
2. Mr Walker now proposes to spend a day in Hong Kong
on his return from the British Industrial Technology
Exhibition in Peking. He will arrive in Hong Kong on
플라
31 March and leave for Singapore in the afternoon of 1 April.
3. Mr Heseltine may not now do more than transit Hong Kong
in both directions. But if he does stop there, it is likely
to be for one day on 23 March before he joins Mr Walker on
the 24th on his visit to China.
4. The Governor has now asked if Ministerial visits to
Hong Kong could take place on the way in to China rather
than on the way out. (Mr Wilford's letter of 30 January.)
DTI are aware of this preference but say that Mr Walker's
timetable cannot be changed.
