Thank you for your letter of 26 April, representing the

views of the British Shipping Federation and the Chamber

on a proposed register of shipping for Hong Kong. I

appreciate the full consideration which you have given

to this matter and your detailed comments.

We are now considering them carefully, together with

those of others involved, and I am asking my officials

to discuss some of the points which you made in your

letter.
