LORD CAITHNESS' LUNCH WITH THE GOVERNOR OF HONG KONG,

SIR DAVID WILSON KCMG: 30 AUGUST 1990

1.

I submit a brief for this meeting, consisting of points

to raise and supplementary background, updating the background papers which have already been submitted by the Department.

2.

I suggest that the main objective of the lunch should be to enable the Governor to give the Minister a wide ranging

briefing on the key issues currently facing Hong Kong. The

brief therefore seeks to highlight some of the questions

which Lord Caithness might put to Sir David Wilson.

3. I do not think that this would be a suitable opportunity

to transact any business with the Governor. But there is

one point which it would be particularly helpful if

Lord Caithness could make to Sir David Wilson, namely our

wish that Mr Peter Heap, the Senior British Trade

Commissioner, should be included on the Steering Committee

which will advise the Governor on the implementation of the

Nationality Bill. I am submitting separately a short

speaking note and background on this issue.
