DATE:

8 January 1985

cc:

Mr Galsworthy HKD

HOME AFFAIRS SUB-COMMITTEE ON RACE RELATIONS AND IMMIGRATION: INQUIRY INTO REFUGEES

1.

Fing

I submit preliminary briefing for Mr Luce's oral evidence

to be given before the Sub-Committee on 21 January.

2.

We expect to receive advance notice from the Sub-

Committee of the questions to be put to Mr Luce about one week

before the 21 January session, ie while Mr Luce is overseas. It is likely that we shall then wish to provide supplementary

briefing which we shall send to the Minister by telegram if

necessary, or hold for his return to the UK.

3.

The briefing is in two sections. The first consists of

notes for a preliminary statement, as the Sub-Committee will

almost certainly invite the Minister to speak first before they

question him. I recommend that Mr Luce should use the

opportunity to bring the Sub-Committee up to date on developments

since our memorandum was submitted in October 1984.

The second section is a question and answer brief, based

on our judgement of what questions the Sub-Committee are likely

to put to the Minister.
