I should be grateful if Departments could also provide me with summaries of briefs in preparation (not more than three sentences) for inclusion in the Steering Brief, cleared as necessary. Where the lead Department is not an FCO Department, I should be grateful for similar summaries from Departments listed in brackets under the column 'Consulting'. I should be grateful if these could reach me by close of play on Friday, 13 February.
