If you are new to these pages, please read an introduction on the structure of a cable as well as how to discuss them with others. See also the FAQs

Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:
  • The top box shows each cables unique reference number, when and by whom it originally was sent, and what its initial classification was.
  • The middle box contains the header information that is associated with the cable. It includes information about the receiver(s) as well as a general subject.
  • The bottom box presents the body of the cable. The opening can contain a more specific subject, references to other cables (browse by origin to find them) or additional comment. This is followed by the main contents of the cable: a summary, a collection of specific topics and a comment section.
To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

Classified By: DCM David J. Keegan, 
for reasons 1.4(b) and (d) 
 
1.  (C) On September 27, Matthew Paterson, Senior Policy 
Officer in the Security Policy Division at the Ministry of 
Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT) confirmed to PE Couns that 
GNZ has approved the deployment of a 6-person technical team 
for UNMAS/UNIFIL, pending UN approval and the identification 
of force protection and logistics support.  The team  will 
offer technical assistance on demining and unexploded 
ordinances work, and will undertake surveys of mine sites. 
It will be deployed for 12-months from October. 
 
2.  (C) Paterson said that the UN has already accepted GNZ's 
offer of a 4-person demining team (reftel).  GNZ is still 
working to get the appropriate force protection for the team, 
and assumes this will come through soon.
