I refer to your letter on this subject

dated 30 December 1968, with which you

enclosed a copy of a letter to your department

from the Ministry of Overseas Development

together with a draft circular to the

dependent territories.

We have discussed this matter on the

telephone and are agreed that the despatch

should not be addressed direct to Hong Kong

inle,

but copied together with a letter explaining

Hung Kay is

A

that they are not considered to be directly

peffected at this stage, but that the circular

is sent for their information in case at any

future date they should wish to draw on

would development funds, when the circular will give

them guidance about procedure. I think it would will also be useful to add a comment in the

letter with reference to paragraph 4 of the

would draft despatch to the effect that they will not

be required to submit an overall development

Could

programme before their application ear be

considered, but only such plans as they may ughte

particular

have of relevance to the application,comeOrDEŇ.

I have only one comment on the draft

circular itself, and that refers to paragraph 3.

If I understand the meaning

that paragraph

correctly, the second sentence might be omitted
