1. WE WILL NEED TO CONSULT MINISTERS BEFORE GIVING EVEN BROAD
APPROVAL FOR THESE PROPOSED APPOINTMENTS, AND THERE IS NO CHANCE OF TAKING THIS THROUGH BEFORE THE WEEKEND, IN THE MEANTIME, OUR PRELIMINARY REACTION IS THAT THE PROPOSALS FOR LEGCO ARE LIKELY
TO BE MORE ACCEPTABLE THAN THOSE FOR EXCO. ARE THERE REALLY NO
CHINESE RIPE FOR APPOINTMENT IN PLACE OF MR ANN AND MRS SYMONS?
LORD GORONWY-ROBERTS WILL PROBABLY WANT TO DISCUSS THE FIELD WITH
YOU WHEN YOU ARE HERE NEXT MONTH.
