ANNUAL REPORT ON HONG KONG TO PARLIAMENT,

1991

Problem

1.

Length and format of this year's Annual Report to

Parliament.

A

B

Recommendation

2.

I recommend that we should produce a report similar to

last year's and that it should cover the events of this

calender year, from January to December and carry a foreword from the Secretary of State highlighting the key points. submit a draft telegram to Hong Kong.

Background and Argument

3.

I

Ministers considered last year whether to continue

production of these Annual Reports to Parliament and whether

to change their format. The arguments are set out in

Mr Paul's submission of 26 October. It was decided to

continue to produce a report but to make it shorter and more

readable, with cross references to more detailed information

available in the Library of the House.
