a) details of the EC/Madrid measures against China and the lifting of these on 22 October;

b) a background brief on nationality (paragraphs 9-12 cover the Nationality Act and provide some useful points to make) and the British Nationality (Hong Kong) (Selection Scheme) Order 1990 (I have highlighted on page 17 the reference to the occupational group "architects, planners and

surveyors");

c) an extract on PADS from the Governor's address to LegCo of 10 October and extracts from speeches during the debate by the Financial Secretary, Chief Secretary and Secretary for Economic Services;
