DSR 11C

Kong

Immigration

Ordinance, which contains a special

provision under which Vietnamese refugees may be allowed

to remain in Hong Kong pending their resettlement

elsewhere. I would add that the Chinese themselves have

an

record as providers

admirable

of asylum to

Indo-Chinese refugees: over a

quarter

of a million are

already resettled there.

I am returning Mr Moran's letter,

copy of which

ha

been retained for our files.
