(Draft on
My telegram No.456.
Hong Kong University.
1. In paragraph 3(d) of my telegram under
reference it was stated that the precise
use to which H.M.G.'s free grant of £250,000
for the University is to be applied would be
the subject of further discussion between
the two Governments.
2. You should know that the Chancellor
of the Exchequer, while not seeking unduly
to dictate or limit the exact use to which
the money would be put, has expressed the
wish that this grant of £250,000 should be
used for the rehabilitation and development
of the University in addition to and not
>
(repeat not) in place of funds made available
by the Hong Kong Government itself. In this
connection, however you will note the'
54403/2/48) contents of my telegram No. 639 about the
informal proposal made here by Sloss for
assistance for the University from Central
