CONFERENCE OF CARIBBEAN OAGS: JANUARY 1981

ITEM 6:

MEMORANDUM ON POLICY TOWARDS THE DEPENDENT TERRITORIES

POINTS TO MAKE

1. The revised Memorandum incorporates most of the comments made

by OAG's.

20

None of these affects the general policy adopted by Ministers

when the Memorandum was approved in October 1979.

3. See no need to go back to the Secretary of State with the

modified Memorandum unless OAGs feel that something new and

significant needs to be said.

4.

(If raised):

Document is clearly not suitable for dissemination

to other than UK official eyes. A sanitised version would render

it so innocuous as to raise questions as to why a new Memorandum

had been drawn up.
