Extracts from the 15th Meeting of the CIA Career Council held 17 November 1955
I R. REYNOLDS: That is the one we are working on now -
?5X1A9a 2nd I - to get that going. The Deputy Director (Support) has
some suggestions in connection with this so that we don't have to have a
long coordination process.
COLONEL W'jITE: This is a recurring problem that comes up
after the Career Council, which is representing the entire Agency, has
approved a paper, and we have had a few "complaints", I guess you would
call them, underneath once in awhile because it wasn't properly coordinated.
y feeling is that if a paper which takes the form of a notice or regulation
or sets forth principles, is approved by this Council - where the Chief of
Operations, DD/P, the DD/S, DD/I and IG, and so on, concur in the paper,
that we ought to be able to go ahead and publish that without having to go
through the normal coordination process, which is very time-consuming. If
that is the sense of this Council, when the Chairman sends me a paper
certifying that it has been concurred in by the Council, I would go ahead
and publish it without going through the coordination mill.
I?. KIRKPATRICK: Cheers.
25X1 A9a T day I add this? I will make sure, Red, that to
the extent that it is humanly possible, before the paper comes to the Council
it will at least get signed off by Ileneral Counsel from a legal point of
view, so that the paper when it comes here is legally and technically in
order. But once in awhile, if it comes up awfully fast, we won't be able
to do that.

And if they get it to us as early as
possible, then we can--as I have :lone--call a Career Board meeting of our
own ahead of time.
1R. REYNOLDS: I think a motion on that order would be proper
for the Council to pass.
GENERAL MC CLELLAND: So moved.
. . . This motion was then duly seconded and passed.
