Vietnamese Boat People: Resettlement in the UK
63
The Secretary of State has seen your minute of 23 June. He takes the view that it would be very awkward for HMG to ask other countries to give us assurances that they will take people from Hong Kong (a British territory) before we make a commitment ourselves. He is therefore inclined not to pursue the idea.
