BEN ELECTED FOR EXAMPLE BY MEMBERS OF THE DISTRICT BOARDS.
ALL THESE PROPOSALS ARE CONSISTENT WITH THE TERMS OF THE BASIC LAW. THE GOVERNOR PLANS TO DISCUSS HIS PROPOSALS FULLY WITH THE CHINESE SIDE WHEN HE VISITS PEKING FROM 11-14 OCTOBER.
SURE THAT THE CHINESE SIDE SHARE OUR WISH TO CONCLUDE THESE DISCUSSIONS IN A TIMELY WAY. WE WILL NEED TO START MAKING THE NECESSARY PRACTICAL ARRANGEMENTS EARLY IN 1993, BY PUTTING PROPOSALS TO THE LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL.
