HONG KONG NATIONALITY ORDER: HOME SECRETARY'S SPEECH

CC

Mr Hudson

Mr Woodland

Mr Hyde

Mr Bickham Mr Hum

1.

We discussed the draft of the Home Secretary's speech in opening the debate

on the Nationality Order on 13 May. We agreed that, since the debate is now to

be 12 hours, the speech needed to be considerably shorter. I attach a redraft

which I hope is nearer the right length.

2. As you know, we are to discuss aspects of the debate with Ministers later

today. We may need to amend the text further in order to reflect the conclusions

of that meeting. Our aim, however, will still be to have a final draft available

for the Home Secretary to consider overnight.
