TOP COPY O DIST?

1. I HAVE FAXED TO YOU TODAY THE GUEST LIST OF A LUNCH WHICH THE PRIME MINISTER IS GIVING ON 13 MARCH FOR THE ANGLO-HONG KONG TRUST.

2. YOU SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THE ARRANGEMENTS HAVE BEEN HANDLED ON THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY NET AND THAT NO (NO) PUBLICITY IS BEING GIVEN TO THE EVENT. SO THE NEWS NEEDS TO BE TREATED WITH DUE DISCRETION (ALTHOUGH I CANNOT BELIEVE IT WILL NOT LEAK OUT). BUT I THOUGHT THAT YOU WOULD CERTAINLY WANT TO BE AWARE OF IT WELL IN ADVANCE, FOR YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION.

3. WE HAVE BEEN ASKED TO PROVIDE BRIEFING FOR THE LUNCH. IF (AND ONLY IF) THERE ARE ANY PARTICULAR POINTS WHICH YOU WOULD LIKE THE PRIME MINISTER TO TRY TO GET OVER DURING THE LUNCH, IT WOULD BE HELPFUL TO KNOW DESKBY 07093OZ.
