Editorial comments:

Author uncertain, but internal evidence suggests this was written in the FCO for FCO use, possibly by Robin Fearn. This document was derived from the Private Office files of Lord Luce, as prepared for submission to the Franks Inquiry, released to the Margaret Thatcher Foundation in 2012. The original documents were released to the public at TNA in 2018. A copy was sent to the Prime Minister, which can be read here.
