1 Jul 1952

THIS IS A COPY. THE ORIGINAL IS RETAINED UNDER SECTION 3(4) OF THE PUBLIC RECORDS ACT TOP SECRET MR. JONES said that his Service found an abstract list of all requirements very useful. It should be clear whether the list contained all items on which intelligence was required, or those only which were not already covered adequately by overt sources. He thought that the Priority I list as at present drafted was rather too long. pointed out that both M.I.6 and G.C.H.Q. were in regular and close touch with all "customer" Departments, and that this provided machinery for reviewing progress on important targets.
