MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director for Management & Services
SUBJECT: Administrative Allowance Committee
REFERENCE: Attached
1. The Administrative Allowance Committee was established in
November 1964 to streamline the handling of financial affairs of personnel
under nonofficial cover. They were previously administered under the
Agency's normal regulations covering Personnel and Finance. The most
compelling reason for this change was to relieve field posts of the burden
to provide "housekeeping" support to NOC personnel in locally paying a
variety of allowances (housing, post differential, equalization, education,
transportation, etc. ). administrative travel to and from the area, 25X1A
and the like. All of the authority redelegated to the
Committee by the DD/M&S would otherwise be a responsibility of DD/M&S
components.
2. By Agency regulations, (copies attached) there are six permanent
members of the Committee. representing 25X1A
the Central Cover Staff (CCS), the Director of Finance, the
Director of Personnel, the General Counsel. and the SSA-DD/M&S. A
seventh member is designated by the component operationally responsible
for the agent in each specific case. The then DD/S initially designated the
CGS representative as the Chairman as a matter of courtes because he
was the only then DD/P representative on the Committee. did not 25X1A
exist at that time, and was not added to the Committee until last year.
3. In January 1973, the Chief,- asked that the membership 25X1A
be changed and that he be designated Chairman of the Committee. On the
basis of the non-concurrence of the other components represented, the
then DD/S did not approve the recommendation of the Chief, and 25X1A
stated that he proposed to designate SSA-DD/S as Chairman of the Committee.
His reasons are set forth in paragraph 5 of the referent memorandum, a
copy of which in attached.

4. Mr. the CCS representative who has most
recently served as Chairman, is now on leave pending retirement and
it is necessary that the DD/M&S designate a new Chairman. A new CCS
temporary representative has been named, but the Chief. CCS, does not
expect him to succeed Mr. - nor is he expecting that Mr. 25X1A
successor be more than the CCS representative.
5. Recommend that you designate the SSA-DD/M&S as Chairman
of the AAC, with the Deputy SSA-DD/M&S to act in his absence. A
memorandum to accomplish this is attached for your signature.
