§ Mr. FoulkesTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a statement on the application after 30 June 1997 of each of those International Labour Organisation conventions that(a) do and (b) do not currently apply in Hong Kong.
§ Mr. EggarIt has been agreed in the Sino-British joint liaison group that relevant international labour conventions which currently apply to Hong Kong shall continue to apply to the Hong Kong SAR. Should further international labour conventions need to be applied to Hong Kong before then, we, together with the Chinese Government, would need to discuss the matter.
