Messages from The Queen and from the Secretary

of State are being sent to the Governor today.

Your paragraph 3. Governor has reported

2.

"I do not expect to request any form of assistance".

In the circumstances it is unlikely that HMG will

offer assistance but the matter is being

considered.

In any event we do not think it

would be appropriate for such assistance to be

announced by anybody in Hong Kong other than the

Governor.
