UN CONVENTION ON TORTURE 1985: HONG KONG

Reference..

1. Please refer to my minute of 19 October. I have now discussed this further with Ms Barrett and, we believe,

ironed out the difficulties. Subject to your and

Ms Barrett's views, I should like to send the attached

telegram to Hong Kong. If you would like to consult

Mr Rankin, please do so by fax.

2. I should be grateful for views by close of play on

2 November.
