SECRETARY OF STATE'S PROPOSED VISIT TO HONG KONG IN JULY
1. YOU MAY HAVE SEEN FROM MR GOODLAD'S REPORT TO THE SECRETARY OF STATE ON HIS VISIT TO HONG KONG, THAT HE WAS DOUBTFUL ABOUT THE PROPOSAL FOR THE SECRETARY OF STATE TO VISIT IN JULY, GIVEN THAT THE SECRETARY OF STATE WOULD NOT HAVE ANYTHING NEW TO SAY BY THEN ABOUT THE POLITICAL ISSUES WHICH SO PREOCCUPIED THE PRESS DURING
MR GOODLAD'S OWN VISIT.
2. THIS IS JUST TO LET YOU KNOW THAT AT OUR MEETING WITH THE SECRETARY OF STATE ON 3 JUNE TO DISCUSS THE BRIEFING FOR THE
LI PENG BILATERAL, THE SECRETARY OF STATE DECIDED THAT HE WOULD STICK TO HIS PLAN TO VISIT HONG KONG IN THE LAST WEEK OF JULY (PRECISE DATES STILL TO BE FAXED). HE WOULD AIM TO MAKE CLEAR IN ADVANCE THAT HE WOULD NOT BE COMING WITH ANY NEWS OF DECISIONS ON HONG KONG POLICY.
