VISIT OF THE SECRETARY OF STATE TO HONG KONG: ANNOUNCEMENT
Problem
1.
To seek the Secretary of State's approval of the announcement of his visit to Hong Kong which we will be making on 3 January.
Recommendation
2. I submit a draft announcement. News Department concur.
Background
3. The announcement is on broadly standard lines. In briefing the press about the visit, it will be important to dampen down any speculation that the visit will be the occasion for an announcement
on constitutional development
