they satisfied.
Slatinshek said some members have expressed an interest in going
to the People's Republic of China and asked me if I knew who he could get i
in touch with other than the State Department. I told Slatinshek I thought
the PRC had a liaison officer in Washington whom I thought be could talk
to and that I would be back in touch about it.
I told Slatinshek that the Senate Select Committee has gotten on to
some of our documents having to do with committee briefings. It relates.
to Chile, Cuba, and a number of other topics. I told him the Director had
provided the SSC some statistics but the Committee has now come back
and asked to look at our Journals. I told Slatinshek, as he knew, we also
write memoranda for the record on our briefing sessions; our. Journals
only indicate who accompanied the Director to the briefing, the date, the
time, and then references the Memorandum for the Record. I said I expect:
that if they look at our Journal items they will then want access to our
memoranda, but that is where we would draw the li:rine. These memoranda
are usually prepared in lieu of a transcript and are privileged Committee
documents in our custody. Therefore, the Select Committees would have to
direct any requests for them to the oversight committee concerned. I told
him that this is the way Guy McConnell, Senate Appropriations Subcommittee
on Defense, and Edward Braswell, Chief Counsel, Senate Armed Services
Committee, feel about then and asked Slatinshek if he agreed with this
philosophy. Ile said he did indeed and asked if we had gotten t:he same
kind of request from the House Sel_ec C'n - mi. tee. I told him not as such;
but they have asked about cove action. Slatinshek said the House Select
Committee asked them how many times we have reported to them and were
him and talk to him about it.
19. (Confidential - GLC) LIAISON Frank Slatinshek, Chief Counsel,
House Armed Services Committee, called and said the Committee has just
received a letter from Chairman Pike giving them a series of questions
on what reports the Agency has given them on covert action operations.
Slatinshek said he would like either or me to stop by'to see
