REGISTRY Action Taken

HONG KONG MEDIA COVERAGE OF FUTURE RELATED ISSUES'

We discussed this and you asked me to distil short fortnightly summaries from the mass of information we receive.

1.

The draft covering the period 20/31 May (which seems to me to be the logical first concluding point) is attached. I have included TV and radio coverage though most of the information comes from press reports.

2.

3. I think that if points are listed (a), (b), (c) etc, recipients of the summaries may find them easier to digest quickly. I should be grateful to know however;

(a) If you agree this format;

(b) Whether you would like the summaries to receive 'Future

of Hong Kong' distribution.
