Dear Mr Fowler,

Subject: The Future of Hong Kong

On 26th September 1984 in Peking (Beijing), representatives of the Governments of the United Kingdom and of the People's Republic of China initialled the draft text of an Agreement on the future of Hong Kong.

We understand the draft Agreement will be debated by both Houses of Parliament early in December. To assist Members to understand the views of the people of Hong Kong, and particularly the various matters of concern and questions of detail which have been raised in Hong Kong since 26th September, we are sending a delegation to London to meet with Ministers and Members before the parliamentary debates.

We will arrive in London on 1st December, staying at the Portman Inter-Continental Hotel, Ph. 486-5844, and hope to have the opportunity to meet with you. It would be appreciated if you would contact the Hong Kong Government Office, Ph. 629-0598, Mr S A Webb-Johnson, to advise a time and place convenient to you. We are also pleased to forward to you in advance the paper attached which sets out the position of the Unofficial Members of both the Executive and Legislative Councils.

Yours sincerely,

takling
