and conditions, in the future as in the past.
In considering this issue the British and Hong Kong
Governments have taken care to consult the people of Hong
Kong at every stage. This was the purpose of the review
which took place in 1984. It was also the purpose of the
current review. This carries out in full the commitments
made in the 1984 White Paper, which recorded the state of
public opinion in Hong Kong in 1984 on the subject of
direct elections to the Legislative Council, and stated
that the issue would be further considered in a review to
take place in 1987.
The outcome of the current review will be published by
the Hong Kong Government in a White Paper on 10 February.
