amendments have been made to the Bill to ensure

that no practical erosions of the existing rights

of such citizens would arise. Her Majesty's

Government has also taken full and sympathetic

account of the need to emphasise the continuing

constitutional relationship between the United

most recently adopted the new citizenship title

"British Dependent Territories Citizenship" to

underline this relationship, which will in no way

be altered by the proposed change in our citizenship

laws.

Yours faithfully,

(J.C.C. Chan)

for Secretary for Security
