YOUR TELNO 134: BILL OF RIGHTS: REVIEW OF LEGISLATION
D
MINISTERS HAVE ACCEPTED OPTION (C) IN YOUR TELNO 56 IN THE CASE OF THESE TWO ORDINANCES.
1.
2.
LIKE PEKING (THEIR TELNO 8) WE HAD THOUGHT THAT IT MIGHT BE PREFERABLE TO INFORM THE CHINESE OF THE DRAFT AMENDMENTS SHORTLY BEFORE PUBLICATION AS A COURTESY, RATHER THAN LET THEM FIND OUT ABOUT THEM FROM THE NEWSPAPERS. BUT THIS IS A TACTICAL JUDGEMENT, AND IF YOU CONSIDER THAT THE LEAST DAMAGING APPROACH WILL BE TO GIVE THE CHINESE NO ADVANCE NOTICE OF PUBLICATION, WE ARE CONTENT FOR YOU TO PROCEED IN THAT WAY.
