NEW NATIONALITY LEGISLATION CALL ON THE SECRETARY OF STATE BY HONG KONG UNOFFICIALS (2 FEBRUARY 198
See
1.
I attach a brief for Lord Carrington's meeting with
Sir S Y Chung and Mr O V Cheung at 10.00 am on 2 February
to put their views on the draft Nationality Bill.
They will
be accompanied by Mr D R Ford, the Hong Kong Commissioner in
London. Personality notes are attached.
2. In addition, we expect that they will mention the concern
of locally-recruited Civil Servants and present and past members
of UMELCO about their position in the event of a take-over of
Hong Kong by China. I am submitting separately on this
question with a draft 'Points to Make', which could be attached
to the brief if the Secretary of State agrees it.
3.
I will attend to take a record.
