Hong Kong Government that we were still going for the whole

contract. But the Minister felt, rightly, that to do so too

baldly might seem as if we were protesting too much. I therefore

agreed that, in a bread-and-butter letter which I have still to

write to the Governor I would say in passing that I had attended

this meeting to confirm that the DTI and the consortium are

fully geared up for a single bid. Otherwise, if Sir Murray hears

rumours of the talks with the Japanese, he might think that his

message was not getting through.
