OUR TELNOS 251 AND 252: VISIT OF LORD CAITHNESS: 16-22 FEBRUARY.
1.
THERE HAVE BEEN A FEW MEDIA REPORTS RECENTLY ON THE MINISTER'S VISIT IN GENERAL TERMS, BUT WITH NO (NO) DETAILS SO FAR. AS WE PROCEED WITH DETAILED ARRANGEMENTS, MORE MEDIA INTEREST IS LIKELY. YOU WILL WISH TO CO-ORDINATE THE FORMAL ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE VISIT WITH TOKYO, BUT FROM OUR POINT OF VIEW, IT WOULD MAKE MORE IMPACT HERE IMMEDIATELY AFTER CHINESE NEW YEAR (ON, SAY 7 FEBRUARY).
2. GRATEFUL TO KNOW IN DUE COURSE WHEN YOU PROPOSE TO ANNOUNCE THE VISIT.
