MEMORANDUM FOR
THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
THE ASSISTANT TO THE PRESIDENT FOR
NATIONAL SECURITY AFFAIRS
THE DIRECTOR, OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT
AND BUDGET
THE DIRECTOR OF CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE
I have completed my initial review of the Report of the Commission
on CIA Activities within the United States and Agency comments on
its recommendations and believe that it is appropriate to proceed
promptly with the implementation of the majority of the Commission
recommendations. Toward this objective, I direct the following:
The Director of Central Intelligence should prepare
internal CIA regulations and guidelines to carry out
the purposes of Commission Recommendations
numbered 6, 9-13, 14b, 15b-c, 16-18, 20, 22-25,
and 27-28. To the extent practicable, and within the
bounds of prudent security, these regulations should
be unclassified. The DCI should also review all
current CIA regulations and directives for conformity
with these recommendations, make such modifications
as may be necessary, and, as noted above, provide for
their declassification as appropriate.
The Attorney General and the Director of Central
Intelligence should prepare and. coordinate as necessary
the internal procedures and guidelines suggested in
Commission Recommendations 6, 14, 18 and 30. These
agreed guidelines should,. to the extent practicable, be
unclassified.
The Assistant to the President for National Security
Affairs, the Director, Office of Management and Budget,

 Approved For Release 2004/02/02 : CIA-RDP80M01133A000900130008-8
and the Director of Central Intelligence should prepare
a draft directive establishing an interagency committee
to oversee the domestic uses of aerial intelligence
photography.
The above actions should be completed by August 31. Copies of
the resultant directives should be forwarded to the White House for
my information.
