Dear Collis

HONG KONG INDIANS

1. Thank you for your letter of 31 July reporting the renewed interest in the future nationality status of the Hong Kong Indian Community.

2. We shall obviously have to keep a close eye on this over the coming months. It may be necessary at some time to go to the Indian MFA to give them a full briefing on the issue but we agree with you that to do so now might be

counter-productive. You will no doubt keep us informed of

future developments.

Your
