Hong Kong: Arrangements for Member of Her Majesty's
Overseas Civil Service (HMOCS)
The Secretary of State was grateful for your submission
of 19 May with the clutch card for use with the
Chief Secretary. In the light of the advice in your
151 submission on the Governor's position, the Secretary of State believes there is no immediate prospect of a deal with the Chief Secretary. He has therefore decided to leave speaking
to the Chief Secretary for the time being.
I gather that Mr Goodlad will be visiting Hong Kong soon, and will have an opportunity to discuss this with the Governor and with the Chairman of the HMOCS. We might consider how to take this forward after Mr Goodlad's visit.
