Re MOD Policy towards Unidentified Flving Obiects
Thank you for your letter of 20th August in reply to my earlier letter of 30th July concerning
unidentified flying objects. It was most helpful in explaining current MOD policy on this subject
there are however a number of points I would like to make.
1. As the MOD has "no expertise or role in respect ofUFO/flying saucer matters" please can you
advise as to what departments, organisations, agencies that you pass such matters over to or
interface with and points of contact.
2. You state that the MOD knows of no evidence, which substantiates the existence of these alleged
phenomena. I simply cannot agree with this statement, there are thousands of witnesses out there
some of whom are willing to testifY on oath and that would stand up in any democratic court of law
as evidence. Many accounts are also cross and multi corroborative and conclusively state the
existence of exterrestriallife forms, and craft.
The fact is the evidence is out there, has the MOD had the chance to review the Washington
evidence presented?
3. Surely any competent air defence system with significant resources and expertly trained peop)e at J
~ its disposal must beable to IDENTIFY ALL significant intrusions into its airspace? - !&'-- M •
4. Is the MOD aware of any identified or unidentified craft that penetrate UK airspace ,but b~vf. C ,~.
-*" flight characteristics well outside of normal parameters? t-J o v\ \( 1;/· '''l"' UL ?./1"'1
5. You state that" no UFO reported to us has revealed such a threat"
But surely UFO's/ETV's are a potential threat after all some may be operated by external non
UK military sources (Replicated Craft) as well as by ET's!
Thi! I would say makes it critical that all such craft ARE IDENTIFIED and reported in detail, . ·~
and cOJiSidered a potential threat to UK security. . ~·~ ~- !W. t: i\ '""""'~1ij . • .::l

6. Does the MOD have any plans to make UFO reporting data more readily available to the public?
The trouble with the freedom of information act is that all the interesting stuff is exempted under
the code, and thus kept hidden from the public- so it is still possible for extreme secrecy to prevail
on this subjec' and undermine democracy.
I don't see why in this day and age UFO data should be classified as Top Secret in so many cases.
