HONG KONG: RECORD OF A MEETING ON HER MAJESTY'S OVERSEAS CIVIL SERVICE (HMOCS) AND STERLING SAFEGUARDS
1. I attach a record of this meeting and would be grateful for your agreement that this is an accurate representation of the proceedings.
2.
There is one further point regarding HMOCS which I would like to make clear. This is that HMOCS officers are
essentially expatriate officers predominantly from the United Kingdom. As I recall, this was not stated during our
meeting, but it is, nevertheless, a relevant point. Apologies if you were already aware of this.

Yours Sincerely, Gill Coglin
