Civil

Action

REVIVAL OF KAL 007 COMPENSATION CLAIM

1.

Your minute of 1 October to Ms Speller and our subsequent telephone conversations refer.

2.

Like others I do not think that a claim against the Korean Government would be appropriate. More to the point might be an action against KAL on the lines of, (as a party to?), that being taken by the American Families Association. Mrs Powrie, mother of the only British victim, has allied herself to this action.

3. Useful points of contact might be:
