4. Mr Luce (who has seen Mr Goodlad's letter) has agreed to

dissuade Lord Rhodes from canvassing in China 'solutions' to Hong Kong's future. Lord Rhodes has now requested an early

meeting with Mr Luce to receive additional briefing on Hong Kong.

Mr Luce may wish to consider a time convenient for this in the

light of the Secretary of State's reply to Mr Goodlad. We shal1

provide a brief.
