INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
Morgan Stanley Insured Municipal Income Trust:

In planning and performing our audit of the financial
statements of Morgan Stanley Insured Municipal Income
Trust (the "Trust"), formerly Morgan Stanley Dean Witter
Insured Municipal Income Trust, for the year ended
October 31, 2001 (on which we have issued our report
dated December 20, 2001), we considered its internal
control, including control activities for safeguarding
securities, in order to determine our auditing procedures
for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial
statements and to comply with the requirements of Form
N-SAR, and not to provide assurance on the Trust's
internal control.

The management of the Trust is responsible for establishing
and maintaining internal control.  In fulfilling this
responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are
required to assess the expected benefits and related costs
of controls.  Generally, controls that are relevant to an
audit pertain to the entity's objective of preparing
financial statements for external purposes that are fairly
presented in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
Those controls include the safeguarding of assets against
unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition.

Because of inherent limitations in any internal control,
misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not
be detected.  Also, projections of any evaluation of
internal control to future periods are subject to the risk
that the internal control may become inadequate because of
changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance
with policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our consideration of the Trust's internal control would
not necessarily disclose all matters in the internal
control that might be material weaknesses under standards
established by the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants.  A material weakness is a condition
in which the design or operation of one or more of the
internal control components does not reduce to a
relatively low level the risk that misstatements caused
by error or fraud in amounts that would be material in
relation to the financial statements being audited may
occur and not be detected within a timely period by
employees in the normal course of performing their
assigned functions.  However, we noted no matters
involving the Trust's internal control and its
operation, including controls for safeguarding
securities, that we consider to be material weaknesses
as defined above as of October 31, 2001.

This report is intended solely for the information and use
of management, the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
Morgan Stanley Insured Municipal Income Trust, and the
Securities and Exchange Commission and is not intended to
be and should not be used by anyone other than these
specified parties.

AMENDMENT





Dated:				December 20, 2001

To be Effective:		December 20, 2001





TO
MORGAN STANLEY DEAN WITTER
INSURED MUNICIPAL INCOME TRUST
DECLARATION OF TRUST
DATED
MARCH 12, 1992






Amendment dated December 20, 2001 to the Declaration of Trust
(the "Declaration") of Morgan Stanley Dean Witter Insured Municipal
Income Trust
(the "Trust") dated March 12, 1992


	WHEREAS, the Trust was established by the Declaration on the
date hereinabove
set forth under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts; and

	WHEREAS, the Trustees of the Trust have deemed it advisable to
change the
name of the Trust to "Morgan Stanley Insured Municipal Income Trust,
" such change to
be effective on December 20, 2001;

NOW, THEREFORE:

1. Section 1.1 of Article I of the Declaration is hereby amended so
that that
Section shall read in its entirety as follows:

"Section 1.1. Name.  The name of the Trust created hereby is the Morgan
Stanley Insured Municipal Income Trust and so far as may be practicable
the Trustees shall conduct the Trust's activities, execute all documents
and
sue or be sued under that name, which name (and the word "Trust"
whenever herein used) shall refer to the Trustees as Trustees, and not
as
individuals, or personally, and shall not refer to the officers, agents,
employees or Shareholders of the Trust.  Should the Trustees determine
that the use of such name is not advisable, they may use such other name
for the Trust as they deem proper and the Trust may hold its property
and
conduct its activities under such other name."

	2.  Subsection (r) of Section 1.2 of Article I of the Declaration
is hereby amended so that that Subsection shall read in its entirety as
follows:

"Section 1.2. Definitions.

"(r)  "Trust" means the Morgan Stanley Insured Municipal Income Trust."

	3.  Section 10.7 of Article X of the Declaration is hereby amended
so that that
Section shall read as follows:

"Section 10.7. Use of the name "Morgan Stanley."  Morgan Stanley Dean
Witter & Co. ("MSDW") has consented to the use by the Trust of the
identifying name "Morgan Stanley," which is a property right of MSDW.
The Trust will only use the name "Morgan Stanley" as a component of its
name and for no other purpose, and will not purport to grant to any
third
party the right to use the name "Morgan Stanley" for any purpose.
MSDW, or any corporate affiliate of MSDW, may use or grant to others
the right to use the name "Morgan Stanley," or any combination or
abbreviation thereof, as all or a portion of a corporate or business
name or
for any commercial purpose, including a grant of such right to any
other
investment company.  At the request of MSDW or any corporate affiliate
of MSDW, the Trust will take such action as may be required to provide
its consent to the use of the name "Morgan Stanley," or any combination
or abbreviation thereof, by MSDW or any corporate affiliate of MSDW, or
by any person to whom MSDW or a corporate affiliate of MSDW shall
have granted the right to such use.  Upon the termination of any
investment advisory agreement into which a corporate affiliate of MSDW
and the Trust may enter, the Trust shall, upon request of MSDW or any
corporate affiliate of MSDW, cease to use the name "Morgan Stanley" as
a component of its name, and shall not use the name, or any combination
or abbreviation thereof, as part of its name or for any other commercial
purpose, and shall cause its officers, Trustees and Shareholders to take
any
and all actions which MSDW or any corporate affiliate of MSDW may
request to effect the foregoing and to reconvey to MSDW any and all
rights to such name."

	4. The Trustees of the Trust hereby reaffirm the Declaration, as
amended, in all
respects.

	5.  This Amendment may be executed in more than one counterpart,
each of
which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall
constitute one and the
same document.




  IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned, the Trustees of the Trust, have
executed this
instrument this 20th day of December, 2001.
