No question about validity of BN (0) or BDTC passports: both are valid British passports, acceptable throughout the world.

Holders of BN (O)/BDTC passports do not require visas or entry certificates to enter UK but are of course subject to UK immigration

rules.

No question of discrimination or unfair treatment: any

complaints will be thoroughly investigated.

Take up of new BN (0) passport has been slow. This is understandable. Expect applications to pick up as 1997 comes

nearer.

Special arrangements for HKG officials, or people with special links

with UK, for settlement in UK?

In certain limited cases certain rights of admission will

exist at the discretion of Home Secretary.

On very limited basis for people who were exposed to special

consideration and special factors.
