1. Mift contains extract from Reuter's report
just received. In response to enquiries from
BBC and Reuters we have taken the line that this
is an agency report on which we cannot comment
without reference to Hong Kong.
We have also
drawn on your telegram No 743.
Unattributably
we have indicated that we do not understand
reference to rejection by Hong Kong of "British
request to shoulder nearly half of the cost".
