Following from Secretary of State and
Minister of State, Mrs. Judith Hart.
Would you please convey to the Commissioner and all ranks of the Hong Kong Police Force our warm appreciation of all their untiring efforts during the
recent disturbances. Their great restraint and devotion to duty under the most trying circumstances has been exemplary;
and, as they may know, have been fully appreciated in Britain. Their efforts in the preservation of law and order must be a great comfort to the people of Hong Kong. Their deservedly high reputation for discipline, courage and impartiality has been enhanced.
To all those policemen injured, during the disturbances, we send our hopes for their speedy recovery.
