UK/CHINA CONSULAR AGREEMENT
1. Thank you for forwarding to NTD the exchange of
notes on the Consular Agreement. There appears to be an
error in the Chinese note which will require amendment.
2.
The Visa Office Understanding came into effect on 27
December, the date of Thomson's note which notified the
Chinese of completion of legal procedures. The Chinese
reply of 14 January however refers to the Understanding
having entered into force on 24 December, ie the date
of entry into force of the Hong Kong Ordinance and not (not)
the Understanding itself.
