DEPARTMENT OF INDUSTRY

.M. Government understands that, in accordance with a change in

the PAL licencing policy in Hong Kong which became effective on

1 April 1982, THORN EMI Patents Limited (who handle all PAL

cencing matters in the UK) have offered limited licence quotas

ausseturers in Hong Kong for the export of PAL colour

ceivers to the UK during 1957. The Secretary of State has

asked me to advise you (without prejudice to any legal rights

of the proprietors of the relevant patents) that these quotas

have H.. Government's full support. He hopes that the Hong Kong

manufacturers will be realistic, particularly in view of the

currently difficult situation in the UK market for colour

receivers, and that they will accept that such quotas help with

the market's orderly development.
