Thank you for your letters of 15 December
and 27 December, 1967 forward to me with
memoranda concerning the Public Order Ordnance
Λ
of Hong Kong.
We have now been able to make a preliminary
study of these memoranda and also of a petition
received from the Reform Club of Hong Kong, and
does not seem to me that these documents make it
out a case for taking very serious action of
disallowing the Ordnance.
However, these documents, and particularly
the memorandum from the Hong Kong Branch of
Justice, doaise certain points which we will be
referring to the Governor of Hong Kong and I
shall let you know in due course what, if any,
action it is proposed to take as a result of our
discussions with the Governor.
