HKIOD

The draft reply should reach the Parliamentary Office through your Under-Secretary by

Noon, Wednesday 11: February 1976-

Mr Frank Hooley (Sheffield, Heeley): To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, if he will advise Her Majesty the Queen to appoint as Governor of Hong Kong, on the expiry of the term of office of the present Governor, a British citizen who is Chinese by birth

.....

I do not think it would be appropriate for me to speculate now on what advice I, might give Her Majesty The Queen at the time.
