YRTELNO 1723: BCCI: ENQUIRY BY LORD JUSTICE BINGHAM

1 I HAVE PASSED THE QUERIES IN TUR ONTO THE EXPERTS. BUT IN THE MEANTIME, I SHOULD BE GRATEFUL FOR YOUR ADVICE ON WHAT AREAS THE BINGHAM ENQUIRY IS LIKELY TO COVER AS FAR AS DEPENDENT TERRITORIES ARE CONCERNED AND HOW WE SHOULD RESPOND. PRESUMABLY LORD JUSTICE BINGHAM IS AWARE THAT HONG KONG HAS COMPLETE

AUTONOMY IN THE CONDUCT OF ITS FINANCIAL AFFAIRS, AND I ASSUME

THAT THE REMIT OF HIS ENQUIRY RELATES ONLY TO BANKING SUPERVISION

IN THE UK. WOULD THESE ASSUMPTIONS BE CORRECT?
