I have discussed Hong Kong telegram no. 1353 with the DTI.

The consortium have hoisted in both points A and B in

Governor's telegram. They will be taking with them to Hong

Kong on Wednesday a new draft proposal which they believe will

meet Hong Kong's requirements on all points. It has been agreed

that Mr Kindersley should lead with Mr Piccagli for the Italians

backing him up. Mr Royce will not go. Mr Kindersley has described

the new proposal as a "miraculous conversion".

The present position is therefore relatively hopeful.
