RECEPTION FOR THE NEW TERRITORIES HEUNG YEE KUK DELEGATION AT LANCASTER HOUSE ON 19 JUNE AT 6 PM

1. I submit a draft guest list for the reception to be given

by Mr Royle on 19 June in honour of the delegation from the

New Territories, Heung Yee Kuk, who will be visiting the

United Kingdom and Europe from 17 June until mid July.

2.

I think the list is all right as far as it goes, but since this is the first large reception for Hong Kong, at least for

some time, I think we should also cast our net a bit wider to

include newspapermen, the BBC, academic China watchers, perhaps

some representatives of the Gurkhas who have served in Hong Kong

and become closely integrated in the New Territories etc. This

will take a day or two to organise. A supplementary list will be submitted; but meanwhile I suggest this list should go forward

so that IAD can begin getting the invitations out. Personnel

Services Department have authorised up to 250 guests at £2 a head. The present list totals only 230, so we have plenty in hand, as

there are bound to be some refusals.
