I expect that Christian Adams will have passed to you by now

the contents of my telegram reporting on the visit of Vice-

Minister Li Peng to the UK (Indus 69 of 29 November), not

-a copy of the telegram itself. I am writing now to set out

our thoughts on the Chinese proposal, which I mentioned in

in early February the telegram, for further talks on the financial and technical

aspects of the project in Hong Kong and Peking respectively.

In discussion with Li Peng, I welcomed the prospect of further

meetings. However, the timing of preparations for the two

sets of meetings will require fairly careful thought if we

are to come to meetings in early February with clear negotiat-

ing positions on the complex issues we shall need to discuss and,

I hope, move towards resolving.
