SUBJECT: HONG KONG: VISIT OF A DELEGATION LED BY DR DING
LIK-KIU
In Confidence
Dr Ding Lik-kiu, the leader of a delegation from Hong
Kong which is visiting London from 8-15 May to discuss
the implications of introducing electoral reform in
Hong Kong, rang the Hong Kong Government requesting an
interview with the Prime Minister.
Dr Ding, who is aged 62, has been involved in community
affairs in Hong Kong for many years. The other members
of the delegation include elected Urban Councillors and
social activists.
Enclosures-flag(s).......
I do not think that it is necessary or appropriate for the
Prime Minister tomeet Dr Ding. Sir Geoffrey Howe, Mr Luce
and Sir P Cradock have all received invitations to meet
the delegation from the Catholic Institute for Internat-
ional Relations which is helping to arrange their
programme.
Replies have been sent declining the
invitations and suggesting that the delegation call on
the Head of Hong Kong Department instead.
