CTITU A141 of 14.II.1996*:
	The Administration of the United Kingdom has requested the Director of the Radiocommunication Bureau to inform you about the difficulties it is currently encountering and most likely will continue to encounter until the end of April, and, to this effect, to distribute the enclosed message. Any change in this situation will be communicated to you as soon as made known to me.
“The Headquarters Building of the United Kingdom Radiocommunications Agency at South Quay Three, London Docklands was severely damaged by a bomb explosion on Friday, 9 February. No staff were seriously injured, although there were some very narrow escapes. Access to the building is not possible at present, even for the purpose of collecting papers, etc. and it will be a long time before we can return to the building.
Inevitably, there will be a disruption to all of our international activities, including frequency coordination procedures. Notifications and other correspondence received before February 9 will be most seriously affected since we cannot obtain access to the records. Any Administration that has written to us recently is strongly advised to send another copy of the correspondence.
Action is in hand to restore essential services from temporary accommodation. All correspondence should continue to be sent to the usual address – it will be diverted. We are not yet in a position to give alternative telephone and fax numbers but they will be provided as soon as possible. For the moment, our general enquiry number (+44 171 211 0211) is being diverted and may be used.
Our international monitoring station at Baldock continues to operate as usual.
The cooperation of our colleagues in other Administrations during this rather difficult period would be most gratefully appreciated.
Michael Goddard,  Director, Spectrum Policy”.
Yours sincerely, Robert W. Jones, Director, Radiocommunication Bureau. ITU GENEVE.
