Ministry of Foreign Affairs have again raised question of delay over
issue of entry visas to Chao Po Lin (NCNA) and Yang Shu-P'ing (Bank of
China) with Consul.

2. Consul replied that he had received no instructions. Ministry
official said that in his view this office was deliberately creating
difficulties and went on to say that Chao was a "working personnel" of
NCNA just as Mr. Grey in Peking was a "working personnel" of Reuters.
Consul pointed out that disparity of numbers made the parallel far from
exact.

3. Subject to your views I am happy to continue employing delaying
tactics over these visas. You will see that Chinese have now applied for
a further entry visa for a member of NCNA (my PC 78).

Your telegram No. 530 [Visas]

Foreign Ministry yesterday raised question of delay in granting visas
with Consul, taking the line that such delays were transforming an
administrative problem into a political one and were further
exacerbating Sino/British relations. I think removal of objections
timely since it is clear that Chinese wish to return to normal practice
as regarde our respective offices.

2. Self would naturally like to leave as soon as possible, his wife's
exit permit expires on 8 July and his heavy luggage has already left. He
is only held back by investigations into Bank's activities. I think
therefore we should delay issue of Vice-Manager's visa for time being.
We would put this point across to the Chinese by responding to any
enquiry about their Bank of China application with a counter query about
Self's exit permit and entry visa for his Deputy Manager's successor
which was applied for in Hong Kong at end of April. Chinese must enquire
soon since their man is due to leave on 28 June,

IN VIEW OF THIS WE HAVE NOW REMOVED POLITICAL OBJECTIONS TO ALL PENDING
CHINESE VISAS EXCEPT FOR THE NCNA REPLACEMENT. APPROVAL FOR VISAS WILL
BE SENT SEPARATELY THROUGH THE USUAL PASSPORT CONTROL CHANNELS.

2. THERE REMAINS THE QUESTION OF THE VISA FOR THE VICE MANAGER OF THE
BANK OF CHINA IN LONDON (YOUR TELNO 795). BEFORE DECIDING WHETHER TO
ISSUE THIS WE WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHEN SELF IS PLANNING TO LEAVE. WE
UNDERSTAND THAT HE IS IN NO HURRY TO DO SO, IF WE ARE TO OBTAIN ANY
ADVANTAGE FOR SELF FROM DELAYING THE VISA, MUST YOU NOT INDICATE CLEARLY
TO THE CHINESE THAT APPROVAL FOR THEIR BANK MAN IN LONDON WILL DEPEND ON
THE ISSUE OF AN EXIT PERMIT TO SELF?

3. GRATEFUL FOR YOUR EARLY COMMENTS.
