MEMORANDUM FM Executive Director-Comptroller
SUBJECT : End-Of-Year Ceiling-Control for Temporary..
Part-Time, and Foreign National Personnel
1. Paragraph 4 of this memorandum proposes action to implement
Bureau of the Budget policy of establishing a numerical ceiling
over the Agency's non-permanent category of personnel which includes
Temporary, Part-time, and Foreign National personnel.
2. The Bureau's memorandum of 3 February 1964, setting forth
the President's approved levels for money and manpower for CIA
through FY 1964 and FY 1965, established the following limitations
on employment levels:
3. The difference between the total number of employees and
the employees occupying permanent positions is the Temporary,
Part-time and Foreign National category on which a ceiling of
Employees occupying Permanent Positions ..~
Total Number of Employees .............?...
has been established. The establishment of a ceiling for
this non-permanent category of employees as well as an admonition
that this ceiling is not to be exceeded unless approved in advance
by the President is a new policy. The over-all number the Agency
had budgeted for. in FX i was which is 0 in excess of
the new ceiling of
To ensure that the Agency does not exceed the new ceiling
of, it is recommended that you sign and forward the attached
memoranda to the Deputy Directors which will:
(a) advise them of this new policy and of their
reduced ceiling for this category of personnel,
(b) aj.ert them to control on-duty strength against
this ceiling,
(c) impose a requirement to report on-duty strength
levels of these types of employees, and

(d) caution against the improper use of the
contract mechanism to add personnel to the rolls.
5. The cuts involved are comparatively small and, in then"
absence of a summer-only yee program (last year the Agency
summer employees totalled, most offices will be able to
absorb them without much difficulty. The proposed allocations
total 0 which is =below the total authorized by the
Bureau of the Budget. This will permit us some flexibility
to meet new requirements if necessary.
