FOR LAYDEN, HKD, FROM GALSWORTHY
SECRETARY OF STATE'S MEETING WITH WU.
AS ENVISAGED WILSON AND HAVE DISCUSSED THIS FURTHER WITH THE GOVERNOR. OUR JOINT VIEW IS THAT WE SHOULD NOT THINK OF APPROACHING THE CHINESE BEFORE, AT THE EARLIEST, THE END OF THIS MONTH OR THE BEGINNING OF NEXT MONTH. THE GOVERNOR IN ANY CASE WISHES TO TAKE HIS DISCUSSIONS WITH EXCO A LITTLE FURTHER FORWARD BEFORE OFFERING FINAL ADVICE.
2. THE IMPLICATION OF THIS IS THAT THERE IS NO POINT 'IN PUTTING UP A SUBMISSION FOR THE MOMENT. YOU WILL NEED TO DISCUSS FURTHER WITH WILSON AFTER HIS RETURN. YOU MAY LIKE TO LET PRIVATE OFFICE KNOW WHERE WE STAND.
