Parliamentary Unit. "

1. I submit a draft Answer, together with Supplementaries and a Background Note, to the Oral Question tabled by Sir Anthony Royle (Conservative

Richmond-upon-Thames) for answer

Sir Anthony Royle, who is generally sympathetic to the policies of the Hong Kong Government, tabled five PQs on Hong Kong during 1977. He also tabled an Oral Question, which was not reached, about Vietnamese refugees, for answer on 27 February. The present Question would seem to stem directly from the earlier

one.

3.

The draft Answer has been agreed with the Hong Kong Government, UND, SEAD and the Home Office.
