The Royal Institute of International Affairs is based at Chatham House in London and is often
known by that name. The Chatham House Rule is invoked at meetings to encourage free disucssions. It states that:
When a meeting, or part therof, is held uner the Chatham House Rule, participants are free to use
the information received, but neither the identity
nor the affiliation of the speaker(s), nor that
of any other participant, may be revealed.
Many security conferences and organizations
use the Chatham House Rule for their meetings.
