YOUR TELNO 2876! YOUR VISIT TO LONDON: OCTOBER 1991

ED 23/9

THANK YOU FOR YOUR PROGRAMME SUGGESTIONS. WE ARE LIAISING CLOSELY WITH THE HKGO. MIFT CONTAINS YOUR PROGRAMME TO DATE.

1.

2.

PARA 3. WE HAVE ARRANGED TWO MEETINGS WITH LORD CAITHNESS AS REQUESTED. WE PLAN TO FIX MEETINGS WITH OFFICIALS AROUND THESE. UNFORTUNATELY THE PUS WILL BE ATTENDING CHOGM DURING THE DATES OF YOUR VISIT SO A MEETING ON THIS OCCASION WILL NOT BE POSSIBLE. WE HAVE ARRANGED A CALL ON SIR P CRADOCK.

3.

IN ORDER

PARA 4. THE MOD WOULD BE DELIGHTED TO MEET YOU. TO ASSEMBLE THE APPROPRIATE SENIOR OFFICIALS, THEY WOULD BE GRATEFUL TO KNOW THE ISSUES YOU WOULD LIKE TO DISCUSS. YOUR POINT OF VIEW, THEY THOUGHT A CALL ON A JUNIOR MINISTER WOULD BE A COURTESY RATHER THAN AN OPPORTUNITY FOR SUBSTANTIVE DISCUSSION.

SIR J COLES WOULD LIKE TO OFFER YOU LUNCH AND HAS SUGGESTED

MONDAY 14 OCTOBER.

4 -

5. THE SECRETARY OF STATE HAS AGREED IN PRINCIPLE TO SEE YOU FOR DINNER ON 13 OCTOBER. WE WILL LET YOU HAVE DETAILS WHEN AVAILABLE.
