CODE 18.77
2
Reference......
not necessarily well informed on all topics and it is therefore necessary to include a certain amount of basic material in the briefs to enable our delegates to participate effectively in debates. These briefs will also be made available to delegates from the legislatures of the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man.
4. Briefs on Parliamentary subjects will be commissioned by the Clerk of the House.
5. The delegation leader will need a certain number of classified briefs which he may use for background in debates, in bilateral discussions and selectively to brief members of the delegation. I should be grateful if you would prepare classified briefing material for the Minister if necessary on subjects at Annexes C & F, and also on any other subjects on which you consider he might require briefing. The classified briefs should be in the form of 'Line to Take' (Pink) and Essential Facts. If the unclassified brief on a subject is generally adequate for the Minister's briefing also, but there are a few classified points which you wish to make for his use only, these should be made on a separate sheet (Pink) to be attached to his unclassified brief. Departments will as usual be responsible for liaison with other interested Whitehall Departments both for classified and unclassified briefs.
6.
Please send all briefs in final form to Miss Roberts in the department no later than close of play 15 September. It is appreciated that in some cases updating will be necessary after submission of briefs to CCD. Departments should submit such amendments to briefs as rapidly as possible, or in any event by 30 September to ensure that the revised information can be passed to delegates.
