NATIONAL FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE BOARD
MEMORANDUM FOR:
IC/82/3351
23 February 1982
STAT
Office Of General Counsel
FROM Walter Elder
Executive Secretary
SUBJECT : DCID Revision
1. Attached for your review are the following draft DCID's:
Foreign Language Training Committee
Intelligence Information Handling Committee
Human Resources Committee
2. More are in the works.
3. Shortly, I shall ask for your views on the desirability of
publishing the DCID's in two volumes, one being a set of broad charters,
the second being the implementing procedures. The Security Committee,and
all its manuals, is the most likely candidate to bring this issue into
focus.
4. Before too long, we'll have a set of DCID's derived from, but
standing on their own, the existing NSCID series. I'll need your advice
on where we go from there.

for all elements of the Intelligence Community.
b. Recommend to the DCI new initiatives to be undertaken to
ensure the continuing availability to the Intelligence Community of
intelligence collectors, processors, and producers with the requisite
foreign language competence.

committees concerning the Community's foreign language competence.
d. Represent the Intelligence Community's interests in programs
sponsored by other U.S. Government agencies and departments outside
the Intelligence Community to improve foreign language studies in the
nation's schools and universities.
e. Ensure that approaches to the academic community for the
training of Intelligence Community personnel in foreign languages are
appropriately coordinated and, to the maximum degree possible, serve
Community as well as individual Agency interests.
f. Perform such other tasks as the DCI or DDCI may direct.
