HONG KONG AND NEW TERRITORIES LEASES

'76'

I am grateful for having been sent copies of your two minutes to

Clift of 1 August, the first summarizing our discussion last Friday

with Griffiths and Morrice and the second discussing the question of

the extent to which it is necessary to consult the Attorney-General

on this matter. My copy of your first minute was accompanied by a

copy of Griffiths's minute of the same date, commenting on it.

So far as concerns your "procedural" minute, i.e. the one about

consulting the Attorney-General, I agree with what you say. I should

mention that the Attorney-General is himself now abroad on holiday

and will be away from the office for the next three weeks. The

Solicitor-General will of course be available to be consulted in his

absence but the Solicitor-General has not previously been involved

in this matter at all.

Your other minute is, if I may say so, an admirable bringing together

of the various conclusions reached and views expressed in our wide-

/ranging
