Mr Robert Parry (Liverpool, Riverside): To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, if he will make a statement on his recent visit to Hong Kong.

discussions with the Governor, the Executive Council and

the senior officials of the Hong Kong Government. He also

met with a wide-cross section of the Hong Kong community,

including the Unofficial members of the Legislative Council,

elected and appointed members of the Urban Council and

District Boards and local businessmen. During his press

conference on 20 April, my right honourable and learned

Friend made a statement about our negotiations with the

Chinese on the future of Hong Kong. Copies of this

statement are available in the Library of the House.
