SPONSORED VISIT BY MEMBERS OF HONG KONG URBAN COUNCIL
1. The following four Urban Councillors are to represent the
Council on an FCO sponsored visit from 21-31 October:
2.
Mr Henry H L Hu (Elected)
Dr Denny M H Huang (Elected)
Mr Kenneth T C Lo (Appointed)
Mr Peter P K Ng (Appointed)
A list of Members of the Urban Council is attached.
3. FCO telegram number 694 to Hong Kong contained a tentative
outline programme. In their telegram number 969 Hong Kong
suggested cutting out certain sight-seeing tours and increasing
the 'working' time, particularly the visits to the GLC, and local
government generally. They also asked for time with MPs interested
in Hong Kong. This will be included in the visit to the House of
Commons on 25 October. The COI and IAD are now working on an
amended programme.
4.
The draft programme includes a call at the FCO on Monday
22 October. This has not yet been definitely fixed, but it is
suggested that the group might call on Sir Duncan Watson and the
department.
