YOUR TEL NO 2023: KIETNAMESE BOAT PEOPLE: ACTION WITH UNHCR 1. WE HAD NOT ENVISAGED THAT PARALLEL ACTION WOULD BE
TAKEN WITH UNHCR IN HONG KONG, GIVEN THE NEED FOR STRICT
CONFIDENTIALITY AT THIS STAGE. WE UNDERSTAND FROM
UKMIS GENEVA
THAT DEWEY HAD UNDERTAKEN TO RESTRICT KNOWLEDGE OF HEWITT'S
APPROACH TO HOCKE, THE BUREAU HEAD AND HIMSELF. WE ALSO UNDERSTAND HOWEVER, THAT THE APPROACH BY THE SECRETARY FOR SECURITY TO THE LOCAL UNHCR REPRESENTATIVE HAS BEEN REPORTED BY OPEN TELEX TO
UNHCR IN GENEVA AND WILL HAVE BEEN SEEN BY A NUMBER OF UNHCR
OFFICIALS. THE POSSIBILITY OF A LEAK IS NOW CORRESPONDINGLY
GREATER.
