In view of the responsibility of the United Kingdom for the Crown Colony of Hong Kong, Congress requests the General Council to investigate the social and economic conditions and the state of industrial relations there and, where necessary, to bring pressure to bear on the United Kingdom Government to effect improvement by more effective legislation.

Congress further requests the General Council to seek to extend the various ILO instru- ments to Hong Kong, particularly full ratification of Convention No. 87 on Freedom of Associa- tion and Protection of the Right to Organise and Convention No. 98 on the Right to Organise and Bargain Collectively.
