In view of the present Soviet policies in the field of new weapons, the Council has also decided that intermediate-range ballistic missiles will have to be put at the disposal of the Supreme Allied Commander Europe. aa^P^^J The deployment of these stocks and missiles and arrangements for their use will accordingly be decided in conformity with NATO defence plans and in agreement with the states directly concerned. The NATO military authorities have been requested to submit to the Council at an early date their recommendations on the introduction of these weapons in the common defence. The Council in permanent session will consider the various questions involved." This reference was included in the version of the Canadian composite draft which was approved by the Panel on the Economic Aspects of Defence Questions (Panel). It would seem to be relevant to an agreement relating to forces in Europe. rfhile not strictly relevant there seems to be no objection to Including it In an agreement for forces attached to NORAD, particularly if the Government should wish to assert a relationship between 1I0RAD and NATO. (b) In the Preamble it should suffice to speak of representatives of the two governments. (c) The reference to prior "agreement in principle" is carried into the Canadian draft approved by the Panel but not in the latest Canadian draft. It could be retained. td) The word "support" was dropped, perhaps because of its connotation of aid. On the other hand the Jnited States formula would be less susceptible of misinterpretation as to Canada's nuclear role. Furthermore, the concept of "support" is contained in the NATO Nuclear Stockpile concept. The expressions In our draft of "provision" and "acceptance" imply a much more comprehensive involvement. The need to amend the United States provision does not seem to be substantial. 000918 �Document disclosed under the Access to Information ActDocument divulgue en vertu de la Loi sur faeces a I'information i • 1 have the honour t o r e f e r to d i s c l a c e / i n the Canada-United S t a t e i Lsterli i l t t e e on Jo] id in the Permanent Join rd an defence terms and c o n d i t i o n s under wj ich n u c l e a r ] Lght | r o v i ted to I by J^nada*My J o v e r i x j e n t ' s u n d e r s t a n d i n g of t h e s e c o n d i t i o n s i s s e t ^ut in the Annex and Schedules a t t a c h e d to t h i s wote.

United States responsibility for custody is understood to be required by the United States Atomic Energy Act. i- In the latest Canadian draft "joint responsibility" was -sought to be acnieved by omitting reference to United States responsibility for custody and developing the concept of responsibility for inner and outer security. Canadian responsibility for external security is conceded in paragraph 6 of the United States agreement. The U.S. draft conforms to the NATO Nuclear Stockpile concept which defines "custody" as control of access to nuclear weapons and makes this a United States responsibility and "security" as protection against hostile elements of any nature and makes this the responsibility of the potential user nation. He could ask that Article 3 of the Canadian draft be inserted after Article 3 of the United States draft with a consequent modification of United States Article 6, but it is considered that such an addition is unnecessary if we concede United States responsibility for custody as defined. The Canadian draft specifies that United States personnel be provided "in the minimum numbers required". This statement conforms to the NATO concept and should be incorporated in any NORAD agreement. Some of the additional provisions for custody in respect of RCAF interceptors- on strip alert set out in Article 4(b)(1) were designed for a specific stand-by arrangement no longer applicable, others appear to have continuing validity and could usefully be retained.

The last sentence picks up part of the United States draft. 000933 1 �Document disclosed c n ^ W H f M M l P " Document divulgue en vertu de la loi sur faeces a I'information • COMMENTS The United States draft Article begs the question of control over release for use and use, or assumes that it will be defined elsewhere. From the United States point of view the provision stems no doubt from the United States requirement for Presidential authority to release nuclear weapons for use. From the Canadian point of view, control over release for use and use (if these are not the same decision) has to bs stipulated in an Inter-governmental agreement except where there may be said to be constructive inter-governmental agreement for instance through the Instrumentality of the NATO Council. That is, it is arguable that such agreement already exists within the NATO framework, where the procedure for release for use is understood to require Presidential authority plus authority of the country which will be using the weapons. This being so the provision of the United States draft on NHTO would suffice, In the light of agreed NATO procedures in the form of the Athens guide lines. In the case of Naval forces earmarked for SACLANT, it will be for consideration whether Canadian Government's agreement to assignment of forces to SACLANT carries with it authority to use nuclear weapons if necessary. Assignment would require to be considered at the Reinforced Aler stage or under MARCOM (Maritime Contingent plans vis-k-vl; ert Berlin) at Simple Alert. (See comment under Article 7 re release from shore storage to ship-board storage.) s So far as NORAD Is concerned responsibility for release for use and (if there can realistically be any distinction) for use requires to be elaborated. If the consultative procedures under NORAD and on Alerts are observed, there might already have been ample consultation between Canada and the United States prior to Presidential release to /*•< NORAD for use. Ingresent agreements we are concerned to ensure that where an emergency develops and where there has been no prior consultation, release for use will be a matter of joint responsibility exercised by means of inter-governmental consultation. In these circumstances we can be sure that the United States Government will not agree that release for use In respect of its own element In NORAD should be subject, in effect, to a Canadian veto, what we are dealing with at most Is release for use by Canadian forces and by United States forces stationed in Canada. (Note: Under the MBl Agreement, USAF Interceptors stationed in the United States may overfly and land in Canada at DEFCON I Alert)). x - (Reinforced iwelnf The Canadian draft «>"" The Canadian draft approved by the procedures for release for use would be Panel provided that inter-governmental agreements.

According to the NATO concept the warheads are flown to airports near storage sites. There should be a proviso "in conformity with applicable Canadian laws and regulations". The Canadian draft (Article 4) provides that release of the weapons from storage to meet logistic purposes ' required "inter-governmental consultation". This presumably refers to release for return to United States for maintenance purposes. The requirement was apparently intended to underline the principle of joint responsibility and is not necessary for that purpose. On the other hand, it would give some assurance of the adequacy of current levels of stocks of warheads in Canada. It is for consideration whether a proviso should be added to Article 7 of the United States NORAD draft along the following lines: "Substantial variation in the levels of stocks of weapons/warheads available to Canadian forces shall be subject to inter-governmental consultation." ft" The requirement would presumably not be necessary In respect of Canadian HATO forces. Would there be a requirement for release for redeployment within Canada? The problem :ould arise in connection with ship-borne warheads for SACLANT assigned forces. Presumably to be of any use, warheads would have to be on shipboard before the situation had reached the stage of requiring release for use. The problem of storage on shipboard is . not treated in either United States draft and there is some suggestion that a separate agreement may be a United States requirement in respect of ASW weapons. 000943 �DocLjmentdisciosecluna^ Document divulgue en vertu de la Loi sur faeces a i'information JANAD rl;\Ji,j I , EUROPE bX rtCES I .
