POLICY
In response to Sen. Anjain’s 31 May 1984 letter, Roger Ray writes RMI.
President Kabua that "the allegations regarding the actions of Mr. Harry Brown are
contradictory to my own observations, are in conflict with numerous complimentary
reports, including comments of officials of your government, and are unsupported by
specifics." Ray believes that "it would be regrettable if deserving people entitled to
DOEassistance under United States public law were denied such assistance because
of actions by those who, for whatever reason, seek to embarrass the Department of
Energy or its duly authorized program officials." Ray states that the DOE will
continueto deliver the services authorized by the U.S. Congress and will welcome the
advice, recommendations, and requests from the Marshall Islands government.“?
