HONG KONG BILL: SECOND READING DEBATE

103

HKK 040/2

4FEB 1985

Y

on token

1.

I submit draft letters from Mr Luce to the following MPs taking

up points they made in the debate on the Second Reading of the Hong

Kong Bill which Mr Luce was unable to answer in his winding up

speech:

(a) Mr Ivor Stanbrook on nationality and HMOCS. Mr Stanbrook

has already put down a written question on BOC status. A fuller

answer on HMOCS will depend on Mr Luce's meeting with Mr Raison

at the end of this month;

(b) Mr Christopher Murphy on paragraph 2(1)(b) of the Bill.

This is really a point for the committee stage, but it may be

helpful to write now to Mr Murphy. We are not aware of any

public expressions of concern on this point in Hong Kong;

(c) Mr Mark Robinson on Vietnamese refugees;

(d) Mr Roger Sims on Vietnamese refugees and on what Orders in

Council will be made under paragraph 3 of the Schedule;

(e)

Mr Ian Wrigglesworth on Vietnamese refugees;

(£) Mr Ivan Lawrence on adjudication between the Basic Law and

local law and on undertakings to Crown servants;
