YOUR TELMO 642. TRAINING OF ZAMBIAN POLICE.

FOR MANSFIELD,

ST

WE CAN SEND SENIOR ASSISTANT COMMISSIONER OF POLICE IN CHARGE OF OPERATIONS BRANCH ( P T MOOR) SUPPORTED IF NEED BE BY A SECTOR SUPERINTENDENT.

2. WE AGREE THAT IT IS DESIRABLE FOR BOTH MILITARY AND POLICE ASPECTS SO BE ASSESSED TOGETHER, BUT WOULD BE GLAD TO KNOW THE TERMS OF REFERENCE AND HAVE ANY INFORMATION ON WHICH WE CAN DECIDE WHETHER A SECOND POLICE OFFICER WOULD BE USEFUL. WE ALSO NEED TO MAKE TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS VERY QUICKLY SO WE SHOULD LIKE DETAILS OF GENERAL FURSDON'S TIMETABLE, TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS AND ZAMBIAN CONTACT AT ONCE AS OUR OFFICERS WILL NEED TO LEAVE THIS WEEK. WOULD YOU PREFER WHOLE PARTY TO TRAVEL TOGETHER FROM UK OR TO MEET IN LUSAKA ? THE FORMER SEEMS LESS LIABLE TO CONFUSION ON ARRIVAL. WE ARE ASSUMING THAT THE COST OF AIRFARES, SUBSISTENCE ETC., WILL BE CHARGED ON THE BRITISH GOVERNMENT, AND THAT BECAUSE-

OF THE LENGTH OF AIR TRAVEL TO ZAMBIA VIA LONDON THAT MOUR AND THE SECOND OFFICER WILL BE AUTHORISED TO TRAVEL FIRST CLASS.

PLEASE PASS COPY TO GENERAL FURSDON DMAO, MOD.
