Italy: Cabinet Office briefing book ("Anglo-Italian Summit 7 July 1982" in Rome) [FCO, Treasury & other departments contributing] [declassified Dec 2012]

Document type: Declassified documents

Editorial comments:

Listed by date of Cabinet Office cover note. Several summit briefings are bound in a single volume. The whole of the Italian section is included in this document. MT's annotated copy of the briefing in her own files seems to have been destroyed, on the faulty logic that a bound copy must exist in the Cabinet Office confidential library. Obviously the copy annotated by her would have been more valuable to retain than the unmarked, overtightly bound Cabinet Office copy.
