MEMORANDUM FOR: CIA TALENT Security Officer
SUBJECT: Filing of TALENT Clearance Information
with the Project Security Officer
1. Initially, after the TALENT system was established, the
TALENT Control Officer was required to get the concurrence of the
TALENT Security Officer and the Project Security Officer for every
billet before he could approve any requests for billets to be approved
into the TALENT system.

2. After some experience, it became obvious to and
myself that the principal concerns of the Project Security Officer were
(a) to have available up-to-date information on the trends in numbers of
people from each agency being cleared into the system and (b) to be
able to ascertain promptly what persons had actually been registered as
cleared and briefed.
3. The last-mentioned function has been possible by a phone call
to the TALENT Security Officer who maintains complete records. The
first function has been covered through the various annual and monthly
reports prepared by the TALENT Security Officer.
4. .#.ccordingly, this confirms that the Project Security Officer
has agreed to the discontinuance of filing with him each request for
billett approval.
