Dear ları,
VISIT OF DR DAVID WILSON, POLITICAL ADVISER, HONG KONG.
1. The main points arising from David Wilson's useful talks on 8 August are recorded in Bonn telno 445, and to some extent in Bonn telno 4. to Hong Kong.

David thought it would be useful for you, and the other recipients, to have a paper, which was given to us in confidence by Dr Fuchs at the Interior Ministry. It lists offers of resettlement places which each Land has made; the number of resettlements that have already taken place and the number of free places. As it was prepared on 3 August, it should still be fairly accurate. Although the paper shows a total of 5,778 free places, this has to be viewed against the breakdown in Bonn telno 4 to you which gives the numbers that have already been taken up by named refugees and the further numbers which are the subject of applications for family reunifications. On top of this, as the telegram also points out, the Germans are leaving aside a margin for refugees rescued from German flagships.
3. Bonn telno 4 also recorded that Fuchs had mentioned, in the context of possible visits by voluntary organisations, three Länder in particular. He gave us contacts in each of these, and I pass them in case they are of use to Dr Stumpf and others:
