The Secretary of State has seen your submission of
2 March. He would like to send a letter to Cabinet colleagues to be followed by a written answer later this month reporting on the passage of the draft
bill through EXCO, the legislative timetable and the enforcement of the import ban.
The Secretary of State would then like Mr Lidington to draft something for the Conservative Party. The Secretary of State would like to be sure that we keep our end up with the public who appear to think that the Hong Kong trade is roaring away unimpeded.
