Mr. Carter
In paragraphs 2 and 3 of his telegram at (62), the Governor is seeking authority to promulgate emergency
regulations to deal with the "Mosquito" broadsheets which
have appeared since the suspension of the three Communist newspapers (the Hong Kong Evening News and Afternoon News and the Tin Fung Yat Po).
2. This request gave rise to the exchange of telegrams at (63) and (64) and in the former we told the Governor that a
submission to Ministers would be required.
3.
A draft submission is accordingly attached behind this
minute. It is self-contained and has been drafted on the
assumption that a joint submission will be made with the
Foreign Office and a copy of the draft has gone over to the
Foreign Office for their consideration. Meanwhile, I am
submitting it now for you to decide whether the form is
satisfactory. The draft will presumably need to be agreed
with the Foreign Office at official level before any
submission is made to Ministers.
4. You should also see (55) and (66), although the contents
of these two telegrams are not included in the submission.
5. The circumstances in which the earlier Ministerial
decision was made
that action should be taken against the
three newspapers now suspended, are set out in the previous submission at (45).
