1. MHSS DUNN IS ARRANGING FOR THE INAUGURAL MEETING OF THE
UK/HONG KONG BUSINESS COMMITTEE TO TAKE PLACE IN LONDON IN THE
WEEK IN WHICH WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 10 FALL. ASSUMING SHE IS
SUCCESSFUL THIS WILL MEAN THAT MISS DUNN HERSELF, SIR S.Y. CHUNG, Q.W. LEE AND MICHAEL SANDBERG WILL ALL BE THERE TO ATTEND.
2. IN THE LIGHT OF THIS SUGGEST THAT THE PATTERN OF ANNOUNCEMENTS
MIGHT BE AS FOLLOWS:
(A) WE SHOULD GET THE TDC TO ANNOUNCE FAIRLY SOON THEIR DINNER, TO BE HELD ON SEPTEMBER 11, AND THE FACT THAT WILL BE ATTENDING IT.
(B) THE NEXT EVENT SHOULD BE THE ANNOUNCEMENT SHORTLY AFTERWARDS
THAT THE NAUGURAL MEETING OF THE BUSINESS COMMITTEE WILL BE HELD
WITH THE ATTENDANCE OF THE OTHER MEMBERS OF EXCO LISTED ABOVE.
(C) THE THIRD EVENT WOULD BE THE ANNOUNCEMENT LATER IN THE SUMMER TO THE EFFECT THAT, TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE PRESENCE OF A NUMBER OF EXCO MEMBERS WHO WILL BE IN LONDON ANYWAY, THE SECRETARY OF
STATE AND THE PRIME MINISTER HAVE INVITED THEM AND OTHER EXCO UNOFFICIALS TO CALL ON THEM TO REVIEW PROGRESS ON THE IMPLEMENTATION
OF THE JOINT DECLARATION.
3. HOW DOES THIS PATTERN STRIKE YOU?
