Q Dis 17
AS YOU WILL KNOW (MY TELNO 1616 TO FCO) MEMBERS OF THE LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ARE VERY CONCERNED AT THE UNHELPFUL US ATTITUDE TO OUR CURRENT PROBLEM OVER VBP. THE SENIOR MEMBER (I.E. THE LEADING NON-GOVERNMENT MEMBER) OF LEGCO MR ALLEN LEE HAS ASKED ME TO FORWARD LETTERS TO THE CHAIRMEN OF THE SENATE FOREIGN RELATIONS COMMITTEE AND THE HOUSE FOREIGN AFFAIRS COMMITTEE TOGETHER WITH
SUMMARIES OF THE LEGCO DEBATE HELD ON 17 MAY.
I AM SENDING YOU AND FCO COPIES OF BOTH LETTERS BY FAX. THE SIGNED COPIES FOLLOW TO YOU BY SPEEDPOST. UNLESS YOU OR FCO SEE OBJECTION I WOULD BE GRATEFUL IF YOU WOULD PASS COPIES OF THE FAXED VERSION
TO THE TWO CHAIRMEN AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
