RELATIONS WITH CHINA
(WHY DO WE NEED TO AGREE WITH EVERTHING WITH THE CHINESE)
We share with the Chinese a commitment to implement the
Joint Declaration, that was why the Prime Minister visited
Peking last September. We hope to see faster progress now in the Sino-British Joint Liaison Group. It is in the best
interests of Hong Kong that the two governments should
consult and cooperate in this way.
DEFENCE LANDS

(WILL THE CHINESE MILITARY BE TAKING OVER BASES IN CENTRAL
HONG KONG?)
Negotiations are taking place with the Chinese on defence and public order in the Joint Liaison Group. Details of
this must remain confidential, but the Chinese are well
aware that some of the land previously used for military
purposes must be released for redevelopment.
