Dear Norman,

Study of Rational Security Policy
You will recall that I sent you on March
28 a paper which had been drafted within the Department examining the policy implications of the strategic
concept of the nuclear deterrent. It Is still our
intention to revise the paper to reflect Departmental
thinking and to circulate it to other departments in
connection with the study of national security policy,
which Is getting underway, albeit rather slowly.
2«
We are planning to discuss the paper with
Escott Reid while he is in Ottawa, probably during
the first week of July, It would be most helpful in
our discussion if you could conveniently let us have
your comments on the paper by then*
Yours sincerely,
At*-

R. A. MacKAY

y Under-Secretary of state
for External .Affairs
Horman A. Robertson, Esquire,
High Commissioner for Canada,
London, S.W.I.
