FOR C.W. ROBERTS (CRE4), FROM KINNEAR.
JOINT STUDY ON BRITISH EXPORTS TO HONG KONG.
HKK 12/548/3.
AT OUR FIRST MEETING, MCGREGOR OF THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE INQUIRED WHETHER IT WOULD BE POSSIBLE TO WAIVE OR REFUND DUTY ON THE UK CONTENT IN HONG KONG EXPORTS TO BRITAIN. HE SAID HE HAD THE IMPRESSION THAT WEST GERMANY MIGHT BE OPERATING SUCH A SYSTEM
WITH GERMAN IMPORTS WITH A GERMAN CONTENT. OBJECT OF THE EXERCISE WOULD BE TO ENCOURAGE THE USE OF BRITISH FABRICS IN HONG KONG-MADE GARMENTS EXPORTED TO BRITAIN.
COULD YOU LOOK AT THIS ONE AND LET ME KNOW WHETHER IT IS A STARTER,
