PRIME MINISTER'S VISIT TO HONG KONG: PRESS CONFERENCE:
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
MIFT CONTAINS A LIST OF THE MORE SIGNIFICANT QUESTIONS THAT ARE
LIKELY TO BE RAISED AT THE PRIME MINISTER'S PRESS CONFERENCE IN
HONG KONG. WE HAVE SUGGESTED ANSWERS TO MOST OF THEM, BUT THOSE
RELATING TO THE PEKING VISIT AND THE TALKS WITH THE CHINESE
LEADERS CAN ONLY BE ANSWERED AFTER THE EVENT. WE HAVE ALSO
IDENTIFIED A LIST OF OTHER ISSUES THAT MAY COME UP DURING THE PRESS CONFERENCE. MOST OF THESE ARE ALREADY FAMILIAR TO YOU AND WE HAVE NOT REPEATED THE LINE TO TAKE ON THESE TOPICS.
