Thank you for your letter of 7 February to the
Minister of State. He has asked me to reply to you, on
his behalf.
I am sorry to tell you that the Minister is unable
to agree to your request for an interview with Hong Kong
as the major topic. As you know, we have consistently
pursued a policy of strict confidentiality with regard to
the talks with the Chinese Government on Hong Kong.
The Minister has pointed out that, in the circumstances,
it would therefore not be appropriate for him to give an
interview to you.
You ask in your letter about the Hong Kong Trade
Development Council (HKTDC) and the renewal of their
advertisement order with Naya International
We have checke
this with the HKTDC, who have informed us that decisions
on ordering are taken on a six-monthly basis from the
beginning of the financial year (1 April 1984).
Accordingly, when they placed the order with Nava, they
informed the company that a decision on renewal would be We understand that
taken in September. At no time was any reference made to
any
''final announcement!
No comments yet.
Private notes are available after approval.
