SUBJECT:
OXFORD COLONIAL ARCHIVES PROJECT, RHODES HOUSE
Thank you for your letter of 18 April about the
invitation to you to contribute to the Oxford Colonial
Archives Project.
Enclosures-flag(s)...........
We have given general, if passive, support to the project
and, if you wish to consent to an interview, we would
have no objection in principle. I am sure you were right
to say you must agree in advance the questions that
should be put to you: you will appreciate better than
anyone that the subject of material on Hong Kong is
getting more not less sensitive as time passes. The
condition we should like you to obtain from the project
is that release should not be considered earlier than
30 years from the time of the last event covered in the
tape and that, depending upon the topics discussed, the
FCO might have to ask for it to be withheld even beyond
that period.
