The Government of the People's Republic of China
and the Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain
and Northern Ireland have reviewed with satisfaction the
friendly relations existing between the two Governments
and peoples in recent years and agreed that a proper
negotiated settlement of the question of Hong Kong, which
is left over from the past, is conducive to the maintenance of the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong and to the further strengthening and development of the relations
between the two countries on a new basis. To this end,
they have, after talks between the delegations of the two
governments, agree to declare as follows..
1. The Government of the People's Republic of China
declares that to recover the Hong Kong area (Hong Kong
Island, Kowloon, and the New Territories, hereafter referred

Chinese people. The Government of the People's Republic of
China has decided to resume the exercise of sovereignty over
Hong Kong
as from 1 July 1997.
