HONG KONG POSTS IN DS MISSIONS

Hong Kong intend to appoint Mr Derek Jones to succeed Sir Claude Burgess as Minister in Brussels in 1982. We should agree to this. We are consulting HMA Brussels and will telegraph when he confirms no objection.

We should however be grateful to have plenty of advance warning of other posts in Brussels so that we can, if

We believe that for appropriate, offer DS candidates.

some jobs DS experience would be helpful.

We are less concerned to offer candidates for Geneva but advance warning is also important, particularly to ensure that gradings etc are correct.

We shall definitely be offering a good candidate to succeed Crowson in Washington (do not mention any name).
