NATIONALITY

My officials working urgently with Home Office on scheme of entry certificates for categories of key people. Senior Hong Kong

Government officials have arrived today to assist.

Planning to put paper to OD (K) before end of month. Would be

abel to announce outline of scheme when I visit Hong Kong.

But sentiment in Hong Kong has evidently hardened. Strong and widespread view that only full British citizenship for all BDTCs

will suffice.

VIETNAMESE BOAT PEOPLE

Pressed very hard at Geneva Conference for agreement on early mandatory repatriation, resettlement of all refugees within three

years and establishment of refugee processing centre.

Outcome so fart

Meety w. Victramure / Eagleburger

Will need to revert to OD (K) to consider way forward. Will be

on agenda of OD(K) meeting at end of month.
