NOTHING TO BE WRITTEN IN THIS MARGIN
W(B)L 51-7406
CONFIDENTIAL
13. We shall, of course, have to carry the
Board of Trade with us at each stage
draft
Submitted
and the attached/submission is being cleared with them before it is formally to Ministers here & in the Board of Trade
& in kind
connected with aerials where again the
advent of TVB has raised issues concerning
certain other rights conferred on RTV under
their licence. It would appear that legally
Case
RTV have an unassailable ause here, but the
Governor is insistant that in equity he
must vary the present situation with the
risk that the Government may be taken
to Court and compelled to pay compensation
to RTV.
#2. Here, I think, we can authorise the
Governor to proceed as he wishes at his own
risk. Again this is a problem which ought
to be soluble by men of good will. We had
hoped that a concession by RTV to TVB in
the matter of aerials might have been
matched by one by TVB/in the matter of
relaying.
14. I am putting these papers
to
you now
Since it is possible (although, I think,
unlikely) that one
Governor will raise
the matter with you
when
you
are im
Hong Kong. & you should therefore be aware
of the general fackground.
