VISIT BY LORD FERRERS TO SINGAPORE AND HONG KONG
Α
Problem
PS/Lord Ferrers (Home Office) has sought clearance for Lord
Ferres to visit Singapore and Hong Kong between 31 December and
1.
8 January.
Recommendation
2. I recommend that clearance be given, and submit a draft reply from APS to PS/Lord Ferrers.
HKD agree.
Background and Argument
3. The proposal that Lord Ferrers make a visit, to study aspects of
policing, has already been put to both Hong Kong and Singapore.
Hong Kong is arranging a visit programme accordingly. Lord Ferrers is stopping over in Singapore en route, on 1 and 2 January. Since New Year's Day is a public holdiay there, his programme in Singapore will be limited to 2 January, with little formal involvement, if
any, by Singaporean Ministers. PS/Lord Ferrers is aware of this.
