From the Secretary of State

21 December 1989

Dear Pehr,

Before we get into the detail of

legislation on our assurances to Hong Kong,

I would find it very helpful to have a

talk about the issue. Would you be free

in the New Year? Perhaps my Secretary

can be in touch with yours to fix a time.

I am writing similarly to Merlyn Rees.

It might be most useful if the three of us

could sit down together to talk things through.

I how a talks with Gerald Kaufma

Gefn. the вери

announcement, to he

Knows my thinking.
