1. I REFER TO YOUR TELELETTER OF 10 DECEMBER ON THE APPLICATON TO HONG KONGLOF THE 1971 CONVENTION.

I HAVE STARTED THE BALL ROLLING, BUT WITH ABSENCES FROM THE OFFICE OVER THE HOLIDAY PERIOD I FEAR IT WILL BE THE NEW YEAR BEFORE IT BEGINS TO PICK UP SPEED.

2.

I REALISE THE URGENCY OF THE SITUATION AND WILL DO ALL I CAN TO KEEP THINGS MOVING.
