Accreditation
All members of the Press (which, for the purpose of the Princess'
visit includes reporters, photographers, newsreel cameramen, broadcast
commentators) will be accredited for the visit. Identification of press
representatives will be by means of coloured lapel badges. The appropriate
lapel badge for each individual function must be worn. This is to
assist in the identification of Press representatives and to ensure that
they receive every possible facility to carry out their work.
Transport
For most official functions, the Information Services Department
will provide transport which will be clearly identified. To enable Press
parties to arrive at appointed destinations in good time, the departure
times will be strictly observed and transport will not wait for late
arrivals.
For convenience, press transport for Kowloon and New Territories
functions will leave from Kowloon Public Pier and return to the same place.
Transport on Hong Kong Island will leave from Queen's Pier and return
there afterwards.
