Robert Adley MP has not asked any PQs on Hong Kong recently, but
he wrote letters to the Secretary of State setting out his views on
Hong Kong and in particular on the nationality package. This
question is likely to be linked to the imminent Hong Kong Bill.
2. The question as put is not quite correct. Under the terms of
the scheme announced last July, Singapore are not offering immediate
citizenship to Hong Kong people, but residence permits which do not
have to be taken up immediately. If they went to Singapore, they
would of course qualify for citizenship after the appropriate
qualifying period.

A short biographical note on Mr Adley is attached, along with
the letters he has written to the Secretary of State.
