Asked if the Anglo-French initiative would be discussed at the trilateral between the Prime Minister, President Chirac and Chancellor Schroeder next week, the PMOS said he was not aware if that specific issue would be on the agenda. The FT story today had reflected the continuing work arising from the Communiqu\xE9 which had been released at the end of the Anglo-French Summit last November - no more, no less. The initiative was not about establishing a permanent unit. It was about identifying the personnel who might take part in initiatives to deal with short-term management crisis situations, such as the situation in the Democratic Republic of Congo, and making sure that they would know how to work together should the need arise.
