In the6 present report they are evaluated with respect to military7 necessity and common interest,

8 GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS$ 2. The proposed programs are consistent with MC 26/4

10 arid the projects listed in them are considered11 essential to the support of current plans and to the readiness12 and survivability of forces. These projects are high priority13 ones and are minimum military requirements . The programs14 possess the required degree of common interest to justify15 common funding and host nations, have stated that they possess16 adequate construction facilities. Furthermore, the two17 programs have been coordinated with the Nations concerned and18 between the staffs of the two Supreme Commanders.

4 SPECIAL NATURE OF SLICE XVI5 4. Slice XVI is an isolated Slice, not part of a Group6 of Slices as is normal, for the following reason. Altough the7 current NATO Force Planning Exercise will eventually result8 in new long term infrastructure support requirements. It was9 foreseen that there would be little or no possibility of this10 ■ Exercise being completed in time to affect the 1965 Slice XVI11 Common Infrastructure Program. Therefore, the Military12 Committee, in considering infrastructure beyond Slice XV,13 concluded that only a one year interim program could be14 Justified at this time. The projects to be included in this15 Slice were to be ones which would remain requirements whatever .16 the results of thé Force Planning Exercjlse.
