Hong Kong have only been able to comment in detail on

certain of the Annexes because of pressure of time. We have just

received further comments. Many of these have already been

overtaken in redrafting. If there are other substantive points

which would necessitate revision before the paper goes to the

Prime Minister, I shall submit urgently.

to the Secretary of State with his comments and with a draft

minute to the Prime Minister (suggested draft attached).

(Three copies are provided for No 10).
