DSR 11C

the Cayman Islands in 1984 as described in your telegram

No 5 to Hamilton and (without FCO authority so far as

we can see) you may have given the Mexicans the impression

that we do not care about the DT. Indeed had we been

made aware in 1984 of the Mexican decision to extend a

visa requirement to BDTC (which the 1959 VAA permits)

we could perhaps have headed them off over Bermuda and

Hong Kong. This is now water under the bridge and we

look forward to hearing how the Mexicans react to your

approach.
