When this question was previously considered 2. by the Council, the Delegation reported (their letter No. 1520 of May 1+) that the Standing Group had no objection to the Defence Ministers from all NATO countries attending a single exercise provided it was large enough to justify the event, but that there did not appear to be such an exercise planned for the present year. It was agreed, however, that the Standing Group should reconsider the matter and this has now been done. As a result, the Council has agreed in principle that Defence Ministers should be invited to attend the exercise “Battle Royal”, scheduled to take place in Germany September 23 -27. 3. I have forwarded a copy of this telegram to Mr. Claxton asking him to let me know by June 28 whether he would expect to accept such an invitation. R. A.
