Mr Illman's circular minute HCA 022/1 of 27 August refers.

You agreed with Mr Edgar of this department that in view of the Prime Minister's visit to China and Hong Kong at the end of this month we could submit a brief a little later than requested.

3.

a)

b)

I now attach the following:

An unclassified brief on the Future of Hong Kong. (Both delegates and the delegation leader may draw on this as necessary but I would point out that the Prime Minister wishes there to be as little comment or speculation as possible about the language of the agreed statement).

An unclassified brief on Hong Kong's political, economic and social situation.
