Thank you. I have declined to Threef for the moment.
HONG KONG AIRPORT: PRESS BRIEFING
pa telin

1. You asked which journalists Mr Ehrman and Mr MacLeod
briefed in Hong Kong, in particular whether The Guardian or
BBC Radio were included.
2.
Mr Ehrman tells me that the original briefing was for local newspapers, five Chinese-language and the South China Morning Post. The SCMP story accurately rendered the agreed
line. He has today taken the same line with Mr James Miles
of the BBC World Service. He has received no approach from The Guardian but would be happy for us to brief them or other UK media on the lines agreed.
