With regard to attracting more British industrialists to Hong

Kong, Mr. Cater said the T.D.C. and his department proposed to seek co-operation

with British banks and British organisations in the general field of

industrial promotion,

He said the two organisations also proposed, and some work had

already been done, to encourage British interests in participation in

Hong Kong industry by direct contact with industrialists in Britain.

"In this connection, the permanent presence of an experienced

promotion officer in London will be of considerable help."

Mr. Cater said that an officer to be assigned to Britain and one from

the North American area would shortly be attached to the Industrial Development

Department Branch of his department to widen their experience.
