Deas Laurence,

VIETNAMESE REFUGEES IN HONG KONG

1. Donald sent us a copy of his letter SCR 1/4821/75 of 4 June to you. Before seeing it, I had learned from the Head of the Asian and African Department of the Austrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs that Austria had given UNHCR an undertaking to resettle 200 refugees from Vietnam and Cambodia in Austria. It may be that UNHCR have already allocated these places but, if not, there might be scope for placing some of the refugees now in Hong Kong.

2. I should be happy to follow this up if you so desire.

Youro ever,

Cc:
