Monitoring Team. We were accommodated in offices in

the Supreme Court Building in Hong Kong [at a convenient

distance from the offices of the Assessment Office

under the Commissioner, Mr. Ian Macpherson, in another

part of the same building]. The Hong Kong Government

provided one Senior Executive Officer (Mrs. Carrie Willis)

and one Senior Personal Secretary (Miss Alice Chu)

as our staff. We wish to record our appreciation of

their efficient support.

1984, the day after the terms of the draft agreement

on the future of Hong Kong had been announced and

published in a White Paper which refers, in paragraph 32,
