Thank you for your minute of 19 May about the forthcoming debate.
in the House of Lords.
1.
2. We undertook to provide background briefing on the Basic Law which might be passed to Lord Cledwyn and other peers. This is attached. It is unclassified and without attribution, but designed to steer their contributions to the debate along helpful lines.
3. I am committed to providing more general background briefing to Lady Young and Viscount Torrington in advance of their forthcoming visit to Hong Kong. If you see no objection, I shall enclose a copy of this brief along with the other material. Lord Glenarthur may also wish to pass a copy to Lady Ewart-Biggs when she calls on him this evening.
