5. In a chance meeting with Bill Miller, in the
office of Senator John Sherman Cooper (R., Ky.), reference was made to
Senator Cooper's bill (S. 2224) to require the Agency to keep Congress
informed regarding intelligence information. I expressed reservations about
the bill, which caused Miller to make the following points:
a. They had in mind Congress getting only NIEs and SNIEs, not
operational information.
b. The documents would be retained in the custody of the Armed
Services and Foreign Relations Committees.
c. The documents would be made available only to staff personnel
having proper security clearances.
I told Miller I was sympathetic to the needs of Members for more accurate
information, but did not feel this was the solution to the problem.
