7. WHILE THE C-G REFRAINED FROM TOO POSITIVE A RESPONSE IN RESPECT OF THE BN (0) PASSPORT, OUR CONCLUSION IS FROM WHAT HE SAID THAT THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT IS LIKELY TO FIND IT ACCEPTABLE. BUT HE HELD OUT LITTLE HOPE IN RESPECT OF VISAS. WE WILL ARRANGE TO SEE HIM AGAIN ON THIS SUBJECT WHEN WE SEE SIGNS OF THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT RELAXING THEIR PRESENT OVERALL REQUIREMENTS. GRATEFUL FOR ANY HELP YOU CAN GIVE IN THIS DIRECTION.
