TO ROUTINE F.C.O TELNO.158 OF 6 FEBRUARY 78.

FOR STEWART FROM DAVIES.

YOUR TELNO.19: COUNTER TERRORIST SEMINARS.

1. WE HAVE CONSULTED THE S.1.0 HERE AND HAVE CONCLUDED THAT IT IS NOT NECESSARY FOR US TO SEND ANYONE TO BRAMSHILL FOR THE

PROPOSED SEMINAR.

2. THE POLICE HAVE RECENTLY ASKED HQBF FOR SPECIALIST ADVICE ON RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN COUNTER TERRORIST METHODS AND THINKING AND WE REMAIN IN CLOSE TOUCH WITH THE SECURITY SERVICES AS WELL. YOU AND I HAVE ALSO DISCUSSED THE MACHINERY IN FORCE BOTH HERE AND IN THE OFFICE. WE BELIEVE THAT THESE CONTACTS PROVIDE US WITH UP TO DATE INFORMATION ON COUNTER TERRORIST MATTERS AND THINKING WHICH MAKES ATTENDANCE AT THIS 'ONE OFF'' SEMINAR UNNECESSARY.
