CTC Meeting. Hong Kong representation. Hong Kong Tel. No.15.

}

You

gior full com..... It has not been possible to resolve substantively Poľ the issues raised in Melville's letter of 3 December to Goldsmith and we will not be able to reach any final agreement on code of practice for conduct of Hong Kong representatives in multilateral forum in time for meeting on 15 December.

However

we do not foresee that the different interests of Hong Kong and the UK in regard to non-

conflicting cotton textiles, eventually irreconcileable though they may be, will need to be ventilated on this occasion, If necessary we would have no objection to

'the representative of the UK on behalf of Hong Kong" (to use the formal technical description of the Hong Kong representative) speaking separately in terms of Hong Kong's interests provided that prior discussion of the line e proposed to a dopt had taken place with you, in order to avoid misunderstanding and embarrassment and provided you agreed.

HE

We are replying to Hong Kong Tel. No.15 agreeing to JORDAN's inclusion in the UK delegation.
