Document type: Declassified documents
Source: Thatcher MSS (Churchill Archive Centre): THCR 1/10/26 f56
Editorial comments: The bilateral probably took place at MT's breakfast meeting with the President, 0800 20 July, before the first session of the summit. ‘H.A’ refers to “Home Affairs”, ‘F.A.’ to “Foreign Affairs”. No officials were generally present at their bilaterals and no meeting record was kept.
