Re MOD Policy towards Unidentified Flving Objects<br />
26108101<br />
Thank you for your letter of 20th August in reply to my earlier letter of30th July concerning<br />
unidentified flying objects. It was most helpful in explaining current MOD policy on this subject<br />
there are however a number of points I would like to make.<br />
1. As the MOD has "no expertise or role in respect of UFO/flying saucer matters" please can you<br />
advise as to what departments, organisations, agencies that you pass such matters over to or<br />
interface with and points of contact.<br />
2. You state that the MOD knows of no evidence, which substantiates the existence of these alleged<br />
phenomena. I simply cannot agree with this statement, there are thousands of witnesses out there<br />
some of whom are willing to testifY on oath and that would stand up in any democratic court of law<br />
as evidence. Many accounts are also cross and multi corroborative and conclusively state the<br />
existence of exterrestriallife forms, and craft.<br />
<strong>The</strong> fact is the evidence is out there, has the MOD had the chance to review the Washington<br />
evidence presented?<br />
3. Surely any competent air defence system with significant resources and expertly trained people at<br />
its disposal must beable to IDENTIFY ALL significant intrusions into its airspace?<br />
4. Is the MOD aware of any identified or unidentified craft that penetrate UK airspace but have<br />
flight characteristics well outside of normal parameters?<br />
5. You state that " no UFO reported to us has revealed such a threat"<br />
But surely UFO's/ETV's are a potential threat after all some may be operated by external non<br />
UK military sources (Replicated Craft) as well as by ET's!<br />
Thflt I woulq say makes it critical that all such craft ARE IDENTIFIED and reported in detail,<br />
and CQliiidclred a potential threat to UK security.<br />
6. Does the MOD have any plans to make UFO reporting data more readily available to the public?<br />
<strong>The</strong> trouble with the freedom of information act is that all the interesting stuff is exempted under<br />
the code. ~d thus kept hidden from the public- so it is still possible for extreme secrecy to prevail<br />
on this subject and undermine democracy.<br />
I don't see w\ly in this day and age UFO data should be classified as Top Secret in so many cases.<br />
