VISIT OF MARTIN LEE TO LONDON: CALL ON LORD GLENARTHUR
1.
LORD GLENARTHUR HAS AGREED TO RECEIVE MARTIN LEE, AT THE LATTER'S REQUEST, AT 10.00 AM ON 8 JUNE. LEE DID NOT ASK TO BE ACCOMPANIED BY THE OTHER MEMBERS OF HIS DELEGATION.
2.
LORD GLENARTHUR WILL ADOPT A LISTENING MODE AND WILL NOT BE DRAWN INTO ANY DETAILED DISCUSSION OF SPECIFIC ARTICLES OF THE DRAFT BASIC LAW.
3.
WE ALREADY HAVE A PRETTY GOOD IDEA OF WHAT LEE IS LIKELY TO RAISE (YOUR TELNO 2076 SUMMARISING THE COMMENTS OF HIS CRITIQUE
ON THE BASIC LAW) AND WILL BE BRIEFING LORD GLENARTHUR ACCORDINGLY. WE HAVE ALSO JUST RECEIVED A COPY OF THE ENGLISH AND CHINESE VERSIONS OF THE CRITIQUE, FOR WHICH MANY THANKS. HOWEVER, IF THERE ARE ANY PARTICULAR POINTS ABOUT WHICH YOU THINK LORD GLENARTHUR SHOULD BE BRIEFED, OR WHICH HE MIGHT MAKE AT THE MEETING, WE SHOULD BE GRATEFUL TO KNOW, DESKBY 07090OZ.
