OUR TELNO 529: HONG KONG'S LINKS WITH THE COMMONWEALTH AFTER 1997
YOU WILL WISH TO KNOW THAT THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE HONG KONG BRANCH OF THE CPA HAD REPLIED IN MARCH TO THE CPA SECRETARIAT THAT THE PROPOSAL FOR ASSOCIATE BRANCH STATUS IS SOMEWHAT ACADEMIC AT THIS STAGE AS THERE IS NO NEED FOR HONG KONG TO BE AN ASSOCIATE BRANCH BEFORE 1997. ON THE OTHER HAND, THE COMMITTEE CANNOT COMMIT THE LEGISLATURE OF THE HONG KONG SAR TO JOINING THE CPA AS AN ASSOCIATE MEMBER EVEN IF SUCH MEMBERSHIP IS CREATED. IN RESPONSE, THE SECRETARY GENERAL OF CPA INDICTED THAT HONG KONG'S VIEWS WOULD BE BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF THE WORKING PARTY TO CONSIDER THE FUTURE OF THE CPA WHEN IT NEXT MEETS IN THE CAYMAN ISLANDS.
