STEERING COMMITTEE ON THE BRITISH NATIONALITY SCHEME

1. THE PRESENT SENIOR BRITISH TRADE COMMISSIONER. MR PETER HEAP, WILL LEAVE HONG KONG ON 5 MAY. HE IS A MEMBER OF THE STEERING COMMITTEE ON THE BRITISH NATIONALITY SCHEME AND CHAIRMAN OF A SPECIAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON THE ASSESSMENT OF ORGANISATIONS AS BRITISH UNDERTAKINGS. AS SUCH, HE PROVIDES A VALUABLE LINK BETWEEN THE TWO ADVISORY BODIES.

2. I SHOULD LIKE TO APPOINT THE NEW SENIOR BRITISH TRADE COMMISSIONER, MR STEPHEN DAY, TO THE STEERING COMMITTEE, WITH EFFECT FROM HIS ARRIVAL IN HONG KONG. THE ADVISORY COMMITTEE HAS PROBABLY FINISHED ITS WORK, BUT IF IT IS NECESSARY TO RECONSTITUTE IT, I SHOULD LIKE HIM TO CHAIR IT.
