2. We realise that a thirty day gap between passage through Legco and the Governor's assent would be unusual but we hope it

will not cause you insurmountable problems. It is possible, of

explain that such a power would be conferred by the time the

Governor's assent was given under paragraph 2 of the Hong Kong (Legislative Powers) Order 1989.
