MR. ROYLE'S TALKS WITH SIR MURRAY MACLEHOSE
1. Mr. Royle rang me to make the following comments on his talks last night with Sir Murray MacLehose.
168
Capital Punishment in Hong Kong
6. Mr. Royle told the Governor that it was his firm personal view that there was no question of him being over-ruled again. Although any future course of action would have to be taken up in the D.O.P. Committee, it was his strong conviction that if the Governor were to uphold the death penalty for a convicted murderer again and an appeal were made to Her Majesty, a decision would be taken either to allow the law to take its course or to change the law by Order in Council within eight weeks, 1.0. along the lines of para. 5 (5) of your Brief of 8 August for Mr. Royle. The Governor told Mr. Royle that unless this hap- pened he would find himself in an impossible position. He did say, however, that he did not expect the next difficult case to come before him until November.
