I IS ex e*\ A HOME OFFICE WHITEHALL SWIA 2AP You asked for details of contingency plans to cope with th, possible arrival of President Amin. In the circumstances, it seems the best thing I can do is enclose a copy of a comprehensive submission which has come forward for the Home Secretary this evenin, The only point I might usefully add is that we have receive* advance notice of two apparently non-routine Boeing 707 flights from Uganda to Stansted on Sunday, 29 May. The Essex police will make arrangements to receive these flights in accordance with the contingency plans in case they are for President Amin and his party. Unless further information justifies our treating the flights as not suspect it seems likely that the COBR will be brought into operation for their landing. The imminence of these flights gives additional urgency, of course, to the questions for Ministerial decision at the end of the submission. I am sending copies of this letter to Ewen Fergusson (FCO), Roger Facer (Defence), Martyn Baker (Department of Trade) and Norman Shanks (Scottish Office). JT\^A^^ R. M. MORRIS Patrick Wright, Esq. rs
