SIR

MURRAY

MACLEMOSÉ

AGENDA AND NOTES FOR MEETING WITH STR MURRAY MACLEHOSE ON FRIDAY 14 SEPTEMBER 1973, AT 12.15 AM IN ROOM W 82 KING CHARLES STREET

32

Secondments of Administrative Officers from the UK Services

1. The current position is as shown in Annex A. This exercise

has provided a fair crop of not unexpected teething troubles. We understand Hong Kong wishes us to press on with our attempts to cure these and we agree. The main ones seem to us to be

concerned with accommodation, and income tax. What is the next

move on each of these? Present score is 4 officers at post and 3 more with marching orders. is this right? What about Mr Holmes?

What about another beachcomber?

The Proposed New DTAB

2.

Negotiations are currently continuing with the CSD.

We may

have some progress to report. It has been agreed that serving officers in Hong Kong should all come into the new section but

that new entrants for Hong Kong should be recruited on DTAB terms.

Will this create difficulties?

Recruitment of Administrative Cadets, 1973

3.

The current position on each of the 5 cadets appointed this

year is as shown in Annex B.

Training of Local Administrative Officers

4.

The Vice Chancellor of Oxford University has replied to the

Secretary of State in encouraging vein about a training course at Oxford, but further consideration will be given to this when

the long vacation is over.
