From the Private Secretary

President Amin
y
Thank you for your letter of 26 May with which you
enclosed a copy of a submission about contingency plans in
connection with President Amin. I have also seen a copy of
Stephen Wall's letter of 25 May to you.
Subject to comments by the Home Secretary and other
Ministers, the Prime Minister is generally content with the
recommendations in the enclosure to your letter, and in par-
ticular with the recommendations in paragraphs 3, 8, 9 and 14,
The Prime Minister has noted that the Foreign and
Commonwealth Office and the Ministry of Defence are consider-
ing the question of alternative destinations, if it proved
necessary to fly President Amin out of this country by B.A.F.
aircraft, and would like to see further advice on this point.
On the point raised in paragraph 24, namely whether further
people should be brought in to detailed planning, the Prime
Minister's view is that this can and should now be done.
I am copying this letter to the other recipients of
yours and to Martin Vile (Cabinet Office).
*" P. R. H. WRIGHT
R. M. Morris, Esq.,
Home Office.
