FOREIGN AFFAIRS COMMITTEE: REPORT ON HONG KONG: GOVERNMENT RESPONSE
A
1. I submit a draft interim reply to the Foreign Affairs Council
Report on Hong Kong. It has been cleared as appropriate with the
Departments inside the office and with other Whitehall Departments.
We have consulted the Cabinet Office, who have said that they do not
wish to approve the draft response.
2. We have agreed with the Committee that the reply will be
published on 1 December. To meet this deadline, PRU will need to
have a final approved text to send to the printers by Monday
20 November, in accordance with the timetable set out in
Miss Bailey's minute of 8 November.
