Dear General Foulkes, OMMBRAOED ftQQff £ Study of National Security Policy inr^*?'* **** smr As I said in a telephone conversation with you this morning, we have asked Mr. Ignatieff, who has just returned from I.D.C, to attempt to formulate some questions which might serve to elaborate our Departmental memorandum of November 17, a copy of which was given to your Minister by Mr. Pearson. I attach a copy of the memorandum, together with a set of questions. It will be appreciated that this list of questions is not exclusive or exhaustive. Indeed, it might on reexamination seem desirable to drop some of these questions, but they will I think serve to elaborate the memorandum. A more definitive agenda would of course be necessary when the working party is organized. It is thought that a good deal of material would be now available either in your Department or in ours so that the study would not be by any means an entirely new effort. It is thought that existing organizations, e.g., our European Division, J.I.C., and the J.P.C. might be able, without too great an expenditure oftime and energy, to provide additional short studies as required. The task of the study group would be to analyze and synthesize such material. As I said this morning I should be glad to have a talk with you on the matter at your convenience. Yours sincerely, (Sgd.) R.A. MacKay General C h a r l e s F o u l k e s , C .
