REINFORCEMENT OF HONG KONG AND

IMMIGRATION.

1. WE PROPOSE TO ARRANGE A CALL ON THE MINISTRY OF FOREIGN

AFFAIRS ON 21 JUNE TO INFORM THEM OF THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF RE-

INFORCEMENTS.

Z»

IN DOING SO, WE SHALL ALSO MENTION THE LATEST LEGAL AND ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION FIGURES AND SPEAK ALONG THE LINES OF

YOUR TELNO.513 OF 18 JUNE. SINCE THERE APPEAR TO BE CONSIDER- ABLE DAILY FLUCTUATIONS, IT WOULD BE VERY USEFUL TO HAVE THE MOST UP-TO-DATE FIGURES, AND I WOULD BE GRATEFUL IF YOU COULD

LET ME HAVE THESE BY TELEPHONE BY 210100Z. ANY FURTHER DETAILS (PAR A 3 OF OUR TELNO.528) THAT YOU CONSIDER IT WORTH PASSING ON

WOULD ALSO BE WELCOME.
