SECRETARY OF STATE'S VISIT TO HONG KONG: PRESS PACK

1.

i)

ii)

I submit:

draft arrival statement which leans heavily on material provided by HKD;

draft opening statement for the press conference: this also draws heavily on a

Hong Kong Department text;

iii) answers to supplementary questions which are

a re-packaged version of those included in the brief.

2. Because of the affair of the Craig despatches, I have had no time to clear (a) and (b) above with Mr Hum.

G/R.Mey.
