HONG KONG: INTERNATIONAL SUPPORT

1.

Mr Maude has commented on FCO telno 755 to Hong Kong that we still need, before the Second Reading of the Bill, an estimate of the number of Hong Kong people with foreign passports/right of abode who have returned to live in Hong

Kong.

2.

I think you mentioned in Hong Kong that Simon Murray had given you a figure of 120,000 heads of household (500,000 Hong Kong people in total). Is this a figure that Ministers could use?
