British Nationality (Falkland Islands) Amendment Bill
239
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.
