1.
We need to consider the relationship between:
(a) the Annual Report to Parliament;
(b) the Government's reply to the Foreign Affairs Committee;
(c) the proposed White Paper on Hong Kong.
Recommendation
2.
I recommend that:
(a) the Annual Report be published as soon as possible (ie end of March/early April);
(b) the Secretary of State might propose to Mr Howell that the
White Paper should serve as the Government's further reply to
the Foreign Affairs Committee.
