the seven offices of record (listed below) should, en a
continuing basis, furnish the Head of an Operating Component
with any information concerning the work performance, con-
duct or status of the persons under his jurisdiction. This
should be done to the extent that it is professionally
appropriate (e.g.. Medical Staff) or operationally eecure
(e.g., Office of Security, Inspector General, and Inspecta
tion and Review Staff), The Head of the Operating Component
should 'be responsible for keeling the Head of the Career
Service (if they are not one and the sane person), advised
of such information when appropriate,

To the extent that it is professionally appropriate
and operationally secure, the seven offices of record
will furnish to the CIA Selection Board information
concerning the work performance, conduct or status of
those persons whose cases are to be reviewed by an
Examining Panel.
If an Examining Panel considers that information
available to it on a particular case appears to be
inconsistent with the recommendation of the Head of
the Career Service concerned or might not have been
available to him when his original recommendation was
made, the Executive Director of the CIA Selection
Board will forward such information to him on an
EYES ONLY basis? This will enable the Head of the
Career Service to reconsider his original recommen-
dation in the light of any new information and to
modify it, if he so desires. Upon receipt of his
reply, the Executive Director will forward the case
directly to the CIA Selection Board without further
review by an Examining Panel.
