Dear Nellie,
Q
Thank you for your letter of 15 May. I recall with pleasure our meeting in Hong Kong and on the flight to Peking. My visit there was indeed an enjoyable one.
In your letter, you raised a question about expatriate civil servants in Hong Kong. I have consulted the Departments concerned in Whitehall. As far as potential vetting problems are concerned, we would not consider service in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region as constituting grounds for barring individuals from taking up a future Crown appointment. Expatriate civil servants in this position would not be prevented from working in the British Civil Service, nor would their dependants.
I hope that this is reassuring.
