REFUGEE FLIGHTS FROM HCMC TO HONG KONG

1.

Please refer to your minute of 27 February.

2. I attach a copy of a reply from Hong Kong. In view of the circumstances explained in the letter, in particular the imminent end of CPA flights (I believe only a further five are planned which will all be full). I fear that we have no alternative but o reject, with regret the UNHCR request.
