ONG KONG WORKS, 10 NOVEMBER

BUSINESS CONFERENCE: HONG

attent the while morning sellin

Mr Yaxley, the Hong Kong Government's Commissioner to Arışıq.

London, has invited the Secretary of State to attend the lunch

at the "Hong Kong Works" business conference on 10 November 1993. This conference is being organised by the Hong Kong

Government in association with the Institute of Directors.

The Prime Minister will give the keynote address in the

morning (other speakers are Sir William Purves, Baroness Dunn,

Peter Woo and Victor Fung) and the Governor will be the

lunchtime speaker. I understand that Mr Yaxley has also

written to the Minister inviting him to the lunch and to any

of the other sessions he may be able to attend.

2.

Private Office have advised that the Secretary of State

has a previous lunch engagement on that day and have asked

whether Mr Goodlad will attend the conference. I recommend

that if Mr Goodlad is available he should attend the morning

session and also the lunch. If Mr Goodlad agrees, we will

recommend that the Secretary of State need not attend the

lunch.
