HCS Secondment to Hong Kong Govt. Service.

I met Ny Evans and Miss Philby at CSD today to discuss secondment from HCS to HKGS. The following points

emerged.

(a)

CSB are

equally happy to carry out "targetted" or nationwide trawls, "according to the specification received.

(6) At present no costs are mivolved, and no charges are

contemplated...

(J

The curent request for secondees (folio 18) from Nis Tsang is appropriate to a nationvide" trawl, and I will put

proper papers

the

to CSD).

(d) CSD) are finding departments increasingly cantion's

about exporting their best people, as ents take effect, and Establishment Officers are increasingly anxious to

offload "passengers"."

(e) A separate CSD Department (PM3) is concerned with. legal officers and night offer to help HKGO with recrintment

of Counsel by secondment, if that were desired. I made no undertaking at this stape mice we are not directly involved.

CP It, as Mr. Alleyne indicated

HCS secondment of Principals

became an annual activity, CSD would see certam

long-tems advantages,
