To deal with this problem the Government has put together the attached guidelines which, when finalised, will be distributed in strict confidence to heads of the relevant departments.

The Governor wishes to clear the general lines of this policy with Executive Council. Before doing so we would be grateful to have comments from you and Peking. Could you please give us your reactions by telegram before the end of next week (i.e. by 3 November).
