TRANSER OF ASSETS

91/HKC 360/3@

1. We spoke recently about this subject.

ст

Your minute of

18 April 1991 to Nigel Cox refers (para 6) to an instrument or instruments which might be used to effect the simultaneous or near simultaneous transfer of assets.

2. I should be grateful if you could draw up a draft to indicate how such an instrument might look. I appreciate that you would not be able to fill in all the details without knowing, for example, exactly which classes of assets would need to be transferred.
