Mr Robert Parry (Liverpool, Riverside): To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what recent consideration has been given to the amendment of the Hong Kong constitution to provide for: (a) a government responsible to an elected legislature, and (b) an elected urban council; and what representations have been made by the Government of the People's Republic of China on these issues.

MR RICHARD LUCE
Both we and the Government of Hong Kong are keeping Hong
Kong's constitutional development under constant review. It is
not our practice to disclose confidential diplomatic exchanges
with foreign governments.
