From The Minister of State

14 March 1991

Thank you for your letter of 27 February to Douglas Hurd about the concerns of the Hong Kong Bar Association in relation to the British Nationality Package.

We have consulted the Hong Kong Government who accept that you have raised issues which merit serious consideration. Both we and the Hong Kong Government would certainly include barristers among those persons considered to be essential to the continued stability and prosperity of Hong Kong.

Your concerns have therefore been referred to the Governor's Steering Committee, appointed under Section 3 (3) (a) of the British Nationality (Hong Kong) Act, with a view to ensuring that barristers will be adequately catered for under the Scheme.

You Sincearly

CanChanan
