Elected Legco member (designate) Martin Lee: He will contact other members to move a motion at Legco, asking the Council to debate before 1986 whether direct elections should be introduced in 1988.

Elected Legco member Andrew Wong (designate): The motion should specify

when and how direct elections would be implemented.

Elected Legco member (designate) Ngai

Shiu-kit: Any premature discussions on direct elections will make Legco place too much importance on one particular aspect and this will lead to an

unbalanced social development.
