DEFENCE REVIEW: NON NATO COMITMENTS

M. Dingidly! lagreed pasange

HK with Dr Mats

1. You asked for a draft submission to the Secretary of State in connection with Mr Healey's minute of 8 August which would not be entirely negative in dealing with Mr Healey's proposal for early consultations with our allies about our commitments outside NATO.

2. I attach a draft which I have cleared with Mr Male, Kr Goodison, Mr Thomas and Mr Mc-aren. I suggest that the drafting of the suggested minute from the Secretary of State to the Prime Minister should wait on final agreement on the line to be taken in the submission.
