FROM: AL YOUNG SUBJECT: Briefing Memorandum for the Meeting with the Honorable Justice Phillip Evatt DSC, Royal Commission on the Use and Effects of Chemical Agents on Australian Personnel in Vietnam, to be held October 16 at 11:00 a.m. PARTICIPANTS; The Honorable Justice Phillip Evatt, Royal Commissioner (brief resume attached) Mr. John Coombs, Queens Counselor, Senior Counsel Advising Mr. Michael Wilde, Counsel Advising OSTP staff: BACKGROUND: ISSUES FOR DISCUSSION: Al Young, Barbara Moore The issues of Agent Orange and the Vietnam Experience have received heavy media attention in Australia. Australia provided 50,000 men as an allied contingent to Vietnam (1962-1970), As the Agent Orange issue has been fueled by emotion and scientific concern in the United States, a similar situation has occurred in Australia. However, in place of litigation activities, the Australian Vietnam Veterans Association sought and obtained Australian Royal Commission Hearings on the subject of chemical exposures. The "Royal Commission on the Use and Effects of Chemical Agents on Australian Personnel in Vietnam" has the responsibility to evaluate all the scientific evidence on the health impact of the chemicals used in Vietnam. The Commission must also examine the Government Programs that have been established to care for the Vietnam Veterans. Judge Evatt has for the past two weeks been visiting various U.S. Government and privately-sponsored research programs on Agent Orange and the Vietnam Experience. His impressions of these research programs would be of interest to OSTP. �Judge Evatt has a difficult task of trying to evaluate the science of this very controversial subject. The Commissioner has sought expert testimony from scientists throughout the United States, Canada, United Kingdom and Western Europe. In addition, he visited Vietnam in May 1984. His impressions of the scientific evidence to date would be of interest to OSTP. Judge Evatt is required to prepare and submit a final report on this issue to the Australian Government in April 1985. We may want to make an offer of assistance to provide additional scientific data from the Government studies currently underway. �THE HONOURABLE MR JUSTICE PHILLIP GEORGE EVATT. D.S.C..LL.B. Mr Justice Evatt is the Royal Commissioner of the Vietnam Veterans Royal Commission. Following is a list of bis official appointments: Judge of the Federal Court of Australia since 1977 Judge of the Australian Industrial Court and the Supreme Court of the Australian Capital Territory since 1974 Judge of the Supreme Court of the Northern Territory since 1976 Judge of the Supreme Court of Norfolk Island since 1981 Mr Justice Evatt was born on 2 July 1922. He was a Lieutenant in the Royal Australian Navy Volunteer Reserve 19*10 - 1946. He received his law degree from the University of Sydney arid was admitted to the New South Wales Bar in 1951.

The article, titled "Environmental Epidemiology: Separating Politics and Sciences", was authored by Dr. Michael Gough, a former Senior Associate with the Congressional Office of Technology Assessment. In his article (copy attached, pg. 27) Dr. Gough noted, in discussing the concerns of the United States Congress for the Vietnam veteran via a mandated epidemiologic study, that the origins of the Agent Orange study were obviously political and social. Hence, he stated: "I believe it is poor policy to conduct science for purely political reasons. The better response is to deal with the social and scientific problems separately". The key, Gough concludes, is to know when science cannot provide the answer and when a political decision must be made instead. In reflecting back to the Final Report of your "Royal Commission on the Use and Effects of Chemical Agents on Australian Personnel in Vietnam", it is apparent that you recognized the limits to which Agent Orange was a science problem. Indeed, I believe you correctly concluded that Agent Orange was but a symptom of a larger problem--our society's inability to deal compassionately with the Vietnam veteran. I hope your Commission's Report has led the way to settling the difficult issues of re-adjustment by both the Vietnam Veteran and the Australian Public. I wish to again express my appreciation for the opportunities we have had, in both Australia and the United States, to meet and express our joint concerns for the courageous men who served our countries during the Vietnam Conflict. Sincerely, Alvin L. Young, Senior Policy Analyst for Life Sciences The Honorable Justice Phillip Evatt Royal Commissioner c/o Selborne Chambers 174 Phillip Street Sydney 2000, Australia � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
