Following for Haddon-Cave from Egan, PA Management Consultants:
1.
Norman Barrymaine telephoned today to ask my
confirmation that Bates is being offered chairmanship.
Barrymaine says he has been asked to publish information in the UK press on 26 June and claims Hong Kong Government source. I told Barrymaine he runs risk of misrepresentation and denied his story.
2. Balis wishes to withdraw.
