Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 Section 3(a) The proposed Section 3(a) incorporates by reference further sections of the Armed Services Procurement Act which the Agency would be authorized to exercise_ The principal change involves Section 2.(c) of the Procurement Act which relates to the circumstances under which contracts may be negotiated without advertising Previously the Agency could utilize the following subsections of 2(c)! (1) In public interest during national emergency, (2) Public exigency- will not admit delay, (3) Amount involved does not exceed $1, 000. (4) Personal or professional serviees: (5) Service by educational institution: (6) Procurement outside U.S. (10) Where impracticable to secure competition, (12) Contract should not be publicly disclosed, (15) Prices after advertising not reasonable or not independently arrived at. (17) Otherwise authorized by law. The current bill would authorize the Agency to utilize the remaining negotiation authorities of Section 2(c) as indicated below. (7) Medical Supplies, In the establishment of first aid stations and provisions of certain medical services there is re,-Iuired procuternent of medicines (over) Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 and medical supplies. Authority to negotiate for such procurement is based on the fact that quite often considerations of quantity and exact composition 3-fteet outweigh possible small differences in prices. Example of this would be our requirement for Salk vaccine. (8) In the conduct of operations it is often necessary to secure sterile property for shipment overseas to be utilized by operational personnel.who,dependins upon the circumstances, may either barter, give or resell the property. In other operational situations, the Agency has purchased items � for resale to foreign governments, (9) Perishable subsistence supplies. The Agency must purchase "perishable subsistence supplies for field station messes, This section would provide needed authority to negotiate for these supplies. (11) Experimental, development or research work. There is a continuing need for special eouipment. It is necessary to enter into research and developmental contracts for production of such items. Examples are in the field of communications and in the clandestine services (TSS tesse eouiprnerit). Such items are often unique and the Agency must negotiate with security cleared contractors to obtain them. (13) The Agency communications system is on a world-wide basis and requires procurement of large nu.antites of radio receivers, transmitters and ancillary equipment. It has been found necessary that the spare parts inventory (see Card 2) Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 Section 1 - Explanation Card 2 Section 3(a) Cont.& Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 (13) continued - be built up through negotiation with selected contractors to assure standardaTaIL and interchangeability. (16) Where necessary to keep particular plant, or facility available. The circumstances covered by this authority are applicable to CIA in that we have work to be done or products to be manufactured which are unrelated to any commercial product. It is possible that unless we negotiated contracts with the specially qualified and security cleared contractors in these fields, they would not be "available in the event of a national emergency." This authority is not widely used, even by the Department of Defense, and will be used even less by CIA; however, it should be available in the event of a national emergency. (over) Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 References to Sections 3 and 4 of the Procurement Act have been deleted since the purpose of Section 3(a) is to provide authority whereas the deleted Sections are procedural provisions and therefore inappropriate for inclusion in a statement of authorities. The proceduresspecified by 3 and 4 are followed by the Agency as a matter of course. There has been included in the proposed Section 3(a), Section 7 of the Procurement Act which provides for delegations of authority. In the current law these are spelled out in Sections 3 (c) and 3 (d) which are being deleted by the proposed bill in favor of incorporation by reference. Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 Section 1 - Explanation Section 3(b) Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 Proposed Section 3(b) authorizes contracts for research or development for periods up to five years, which is substantially similar to present authorities for military departments. In fulfilling its unique mission, the Agency lets contracts from time to time for important and novel research and development work. Such contracts often must extend over a relatively long period in order to accomplish the desired result and do not accomodate themselves to fiscal year limitations.

The provision is simply a definition of Ageriey head to include the DCI, DDCI and the Deputy Directors. Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 Approved For Release 2002/06/27: CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 In view of the complexity of attempting to include certain new authorities in the field of travel and allowances, it was deemed preferable to reenact in its entirety Section 5 of the current law. The new authorities are clearly indicated in the explanations to follow and the provisions which are reenactments of existing law are also clearly indicated. In addition, the Section has been somewhat rearranged in order to place the various authorities in more logical sequence.

The modification permits storage on the basis of a determination by the Agency that it would be cheaper to store the furniture than to transport it, The language accomplishing this modification is similar to Foreign Service authority which has been in effect for several years. 5(a)(6) Reenactment of 5(a)(1)(E) which authorizes cost of storing furniture and household and personal effects of an employee at first arrival at a post abroad.

This authority is identical to the authority granted in this regard to Foreign Service in the 84th Congress. 5(a)(9) Reenactment of 5(a)(6) of existing law which authorizes payment of cost of preparing and transporting the remains of an employee or member of his family who may die abroad.

Explanation Approved For Releas4e2#4271412tb) CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 This is a revision of Section 5(0(2) of the present law which authorizes the Agency to charge expenses of travel and transportation to the appropriation for the fiscal year current when any part of the travel begins notwithstanding that the travel may not be completed during that current year. The existing law limits the authority to travel involving permanent change of station. The revision would grant similar authority with respect to travel expenses for temporary duty travel. In addition, the revision would also extend the authority to the expenses in connection with transporting automobiles. Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 oectIon L. Explanation Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 Section 5(c) 5(c)(1) This revision brings up to date Section 5(a)(3)(A) of the current law which provides authority to approvt travel for home leave purposes upon completion of two years of service abroad. The amendment eliminates the requirement that employees have accumulated sufficient leave to carry them in leave status for 30 days. Under present leave laws it is impossible for some employees to accumulate sufficient leave and with the proposed granting of statutory home leave benefits the accumulation requirement becomes meaningless. The revision also deletes obsolete references to Code citations. 5(c)(2) Reenactment of 5(a)(3)(B) in the current law which provides travel time will not be charged to leave. 5(c)(3) Reenactment of 5(a)(3)(C) in the current law provides that an employee while in this country for leave may be assigned to temporary duty in the Agency but shall not be available for any other work or duties. 5(c)(4) Extends the statutory home leave provisions of the Annual and Sick Leave Act of 1951 to CIA employees stationed abroad, and thus places them on a similar Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3(over) Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 basis to members of the Foreign Service in this regard. There is need for a period of home leave during which an employee can bring himself up to date on current affairs in the United States and handle personal affairs neglected during long service overseas. The phrases "and as it may hereafter be amended" are inserted in order to equate proposed CIA legislation to any possible changes in government-wide leave legislation. Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 Section 2 - Explanation Approved For Release i2o0n02Rigi27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 The following specific sections reenact existing authorities in the field of medical benefits and, in addition, incorporate new authorities. The rearrangement of Section 5 in the proposed bill is such that the medical benefits are available not only to persons assigned to permanent duty stations abroad but also to persons serving abroad on temporary duty. This has been accomplished by not having the medical benefits sections under the general preamble to the previous section 5(a) of the existing law. Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 Section Z - Explanation Approved For Releasesii:JiPiMOWtIOA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 This revision reenacts Section 5(a)(5)(A) of existing law which authorizes the Agency to pay travel expenses of employees of the Agency to a suitable hospital and return in the event of illness or injury if there is no suitable medical facility at the assigned post. Current law also provides for payment of travel expenses of an attendant if the employee is too ill to travel unattended. The revision simply extends this coverage to dependents of employees . As the members of the employee's family find themselves in these localities solely because of the employee's employment with the Agency, it is considered appropriate for the Agency to bear the travel costs in such cases. The Foreign Service is currently requesting similar authority. Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 Section 2 - Explanation Approved For ReIEDS.S4i/RrO~itiA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 This is a reenactment of existing law section 5(a)(5)(C) which provides authority for payment of medical expenses to employees assigned abroad. Section 5(d)(2)(B) This is a new provision which extends limited medical benefits to dependents of an employee who are located abroad because of the employee's assignment to a foreign post. It is not intended that the Agency assume the full cost of providing medical care and treatment for Agency employees under all circumstances. Provision is made that the employee assume the first $35.00 of such costs with a limitation of 120 days of hospitalization for each illness or injury. In exceptional circumstances, the maximum limitation shall not apply when it is determined that the illne.ss or injury clearly is caused by the fact that the dependent is or has been located abroad. For example, civil strife resulting in serious injury to the wife of an Agency employee or a child's contraction of an infectious disease (despite observance of normal precautionary measures) which rarely occurs in the United States, would seem to warrant the Agency assuming the full cost. The requested authority is identical to the authority currently being sought by the Foreign Service. Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A0020(fhel t_3Card) Section 2 - Explanation Approved For Release 2002/06/27: CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 Section 5(d)(2)(A) and 5(d)(2)(B) The language of the proposed bill is in substantial accord with the Foreign Service Act amendments as approved by the Senate in S. 3481. In fact, at the suggestion of the Bureau of the Budget our initial language was changed to conform with the Foreign Service Act amendments. We note that in the Senate consideration certain changes were made. The principal change concerned the insertion of the words "similar treatment" after "hospitalization" in recognition that in some areas of the world the home of the officer or employee would contain better facilities for treatment than the local hospital. Therefore, we should insert the words "or similar treatment" in both sections immediately following the word "hospitalization" wherever it occurs. It occurs once in 5(d)(2)(A) and twice in 5(d)(2)(B). In addition, there has been added to S.3481 a section providing that after experience has been obtained in connection with the new medical benefits, the Secretary can determine that if the benefits can be provided for as well and as cheaply in other ways the Secretary may contract for medical care pursuant to such arrangements, insurance, medical service, or health plans as he may deem appropriate. Therefore, it might be desirable to conform our language further to the Foreign Service bill to include a new subsection 5(d)(2)(C) as follows: (over) Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 "After sufficient experience in the operation of the medical protection plan authorized in subsections (a) and (b) of this section has been obtained, as determined by the Secretary, and if he considers that the benefits so authorized can be provided for as well and as cheaply in other ways, the Secretary may, under such regulations, and for such persons, locations, and conditions as he may deem appropriate, and within the limits prescribed in such subsections, contract for medical care pursuant to such arrangements, insurance, medical service, or health plans as he may deem appropriate." Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 Section 2 - Explanation Approved For Releas%e2662106/0)(bIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 This is a reenactment of Section 5(a)(5)(D) which authorizes establishment of a first aid station and a nurse at posts where deemed required. In addition, the amendment also authorizes the Agency to provide the services of a physician or other medical personnel at posts where sufficient personnel are employed. It is not intended to establish facilities of this kind at all posts. Normally this Agency would be able to rely on other Government facilities or private facilities. At some posts, however, only the most primitive medical facilities exist or in some cases, although suitable facilities exist, they are not available to Agency employees. Therefore, establishment of essential medical facilities and services is believed to be a practical investment from the point of view of the Government as an employer as well as to the benefit of employees'morale.

CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 Section 5(d)(4) This is a reenactment of 5(a)(5)(D) which authorizes the Agency to provide periodic ohysical examinations and inoculations for employees. In addition, this authority would be extended in the case of dependents of employees. Although in practice inoculations have been granted dependents, the matter is not free from doubt and, therefore, this c.7_arifying language is sought. The wording of this provision is substantially in accord with the existing law applicable to Foreign Service.

Previously these authorities were available in part through incorporation by reference of certain sections of the Foreign Service Act and through reliance on statutory provisions of general applicability in Government. It was believed desirable to establish the Agency's authorities in a clear-cut fashion based on Agency requirements in order to facilitate the administration of the allowances and determination of need for further authorities as fUture needs indicated. The preamble to the granting of all of these allowances is that they will be in accord with such regulations as the President may prescribe. Currently Executive Order 10100 establishes the Presidential regulations in the field of allowances for this Agency. An appropriate amendment to this Executive Order will be proposed to conform with the proposed statutory amendments should they be enacted into law.

(B) Subsection (B) provides authority for the transfer allowances. These allowances and the language used are substantially in accord with those utilized by the Foreign Service. (C) This subsection provides authority for the separation allowance where the requirements of the post are such that for the convenience of the Government an employee is unable to have his dependents with him. This also is similar to Foreign Service authority. (D) This subsection will permit the Agency to provide an appropriate allowance to meet extraordinary and necessary tuition expenses incurred by an employee in providing proper elementary and secondary education for his dependents. The language used is substantially similar to that currently available to Foreign Service and through Appropriation Acts to the Government generally.

The authority is applicable both to posts abroad and territorial localities. The language utilized is sUbstantially similar to that in the Foreign Service Act for foreign areas and statutory authorization applicable generally to the Government for territorial locations.

The wording of a similar provision in the Internal Revenue Code applicable to allowances granted the Foreign Service and other Government employees is not sufficiently broad to cover allowances Which would be available pursuant to the provisions of the amended CIA Act. Therefore, the proper language has been included here. Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 Section 3. This proposed amendment would raise from 15 to 35 the number of retired officers of the armed services employable by CIA under the authority of Section 6(f)(1) of our Act, whose employment by the Federal Government would be otherwise barred by other statutory limitations on the employment of such officers. It was pointed out in the report of the Clark Task Force of the Hoover Commission, and this Agency concurs in its conclusion, that increased use should be made, if 'Possible, of the talents of retired military officers whose ability and experience fit them for the types of work done by this Agency.

Without specific statutory exemption, Section 3648 of the R-vised Statutes prohibits the Government fror- making such advance payments. The prohibition works a hardship in many foreign countries whose laws or customs require advance payments particularly for rent. Numerous exceptions have been made to Section 3648 for such agencies as the Bureau of Customs, the Office of Scientific Research, and Development, the Department of State and the Armed Service.s, Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 Approved For Release 2002/06/27 : CIA-RDP78-04718A002000310059-3 Section 5.
