Airtel to ADIC, New York (199F-1564) RE: Irish Northern Aid Committee (INAC) aka NORAID IT-PIRA; OO: New York

investigation has show that NORAID utilizes couriers to funnel their cash paynents to the ACC in Ireland. mhis system of cash payments has thwarted the Bureau's ability to trace any money flowing through NORAID to PIRA in Ireland.

FBI Headquarters is of the opinion that our efforts would be better served to concentrate our investigative resources on those individuals who are in leadership positions in NORAID rather than the organization itself inasnuch as some individuals within NORAID may not support the PIRA ideology or participate in their activities_

Accordingly New York is directed to close captioned matter as a separate investigation. New York should continue their aggressive investigations Of individual leaders Of NORAID which are on-going in the division. In addition, New York should continue to provide FBI Headquarters with appropriate justifications for opening full investigations on other persons involved in NORAID/PIRA activities who may be identified in this matter.

New York should advise offices with outstanding leads of the closing Of this matter.
