3 JULY. THIS WILL STILL LEAVE SUFFICIENT TIME TO RETURN TO
GOVERNMENT HOUSE TO FRESHEN UP BEFORE THE OMELCO MEETING AT 6.45 PM.
D) VISIT TO A MARKET, MTR OR STAR FERRY. BOTH THE MARKET AND MTR CAN BE EASILY ACCOMMODATED. THE STAR FERRY IS DIFFICULT AND WE HAVE
EXCLUDED THIS. WE ARE ARRANGING FOR THE SECRETARY OF STATE TO TRAVEL
ON THE MTR FROM THE EASTERN HARBOUR CROSSING TO CAUSEWAY BAY. HE
WILL ARRIVE AT CAUSEWAY BAY AT 4.05 PM AND HAVE A 15 MINUTE WALKABOUT
IN AN OPEN MARKET. THE PRESS WILL BE TOLD ON 3 JULY AM THAT THIS IS
A LATE ADDITION TO THE PROGRAMME AT THE SECRETARY OF STATE'S REQUEST.
E) VBP CAMPS. WE WILL ARRANGE FOR A GROUP OF VOLUNTEERS TO BE BROUGHT FROM LO WU, WHERE THEY ARE ALL ACCOMMODATED, TO SEK KONG. WE ARE TELEGRAPHING SEPARATELY ON THE FINANCIAL CONTRIBUTION MADE
BY HMG, AND HOW THIS CAN BEST BE DEMONSTRATED.
F) NCNA. WE CONFIRM THAT NCNA WILL NOT BE PRESENT. TO HAVE THEM
THERE WOULD NOT/NOT BE NORMAL PRACTICE.
