Having regard to Government's announced policy not to
allow the introduction of greyhound racing in Hong Kong, will Government explain why it tolerates the widespread publication and broadcasting by our local newspaperc, radio and television stations of programmes, tips and results of greyhound racing in Macau, which simulates and encourages gambling ? Will Government consider taking steps to stop or discourage such undesirable publicity ?

Does Government consider the announcement by the British Government of its intention to impose tariffs on cotton goods imported from Commonwealth countries beginning in 1972 with all its implications will have the most serious adverse effect on Hong Kong'a economy and will Govern- ment make the strongest possible representations to the British Government reminding it of Hong Kong's special position, financially and economically as well as politic - ally, in relation to the United Kingdom which demands specail consideration, and that it is not in Britain's interest to endanger the economy of Hong Kong ?
