2. FY 67 Bud et. (ACTION: OTR's ceiling 25X1A
is pegged at FY 67 allocation could be less than the Congressional
Budget, Over-ceiling priority items should be reprogrammed. Limitation
of 74 on the number of positions at GS-14 through 18. DTR wants to be
briefed on the essential factors of our reply.
3. DDP Nominations to Senior Officers Schools & DDP Rotation to OTR.
ACTION: DDP makes its major personnel planning
assignments in October; raised the question with- 25X1A
whether they could make their nominations for the Senior Officers Schools
also at that time. DTR can see no reason why the deadline for all
nominations to Senior Officers Schools could not be in October. Gerry
would also like to know if DDP rotations to OTR could be handled
in October.
5. Managerial Grid. It is clear that Bob Fuchs in his memo of findings
on the Program thinks that Phase I is all right but he does not buy
Phase II. DTR will concur in this and forget about Phase II.
25X1A 6. Support CTs. In his talk with the CT attached to
25X1A Mr. Richardson was informed (a) It would be useful if
25X1A somebody like would start out the Support CT training to
lessen the impact of the shift from Ops Fam to Support; (b) at the time
the CTs are told they are going into Support it might be useful if an5X1A
urin
appropriate Senior Support Officer could be available at
the day to answer questions. DTR thinks that something on Support as a
career should be cranked into the course earlier.
