British Nationality (Falkland Islands) Amendment Bill

૬૯ (૩૮)

1. I have seen the Home Secretary's minute of 17 November

about the Bill introduced by Baroness Vickers to give

British citizenship to everyone who has a connection with

the Falkland Islands.

2. I endorse his analysis and support the line he proposes.

There may be considerable difficulties with some of the

other dependencies, particularly Hong Kong, but in the

parliamentary circumstances I see no other way forward.

3. I am copying this minute to the Home Secretary and

to the other members of OD and L as well as to Sir Robert

Armstrong and First Parliamentary Counsel.
