in references. In addition, howev. r# each bill sent to DD/S will be
reviewed within OLC for the purpose of identifying items of significant
interest and bringing them to the attention of the Office of the 1)D/S
and/or D13/S components. This will result in a considerable amount of
interplay. as exists at present, between 0_C and the Office of the DD/5
and DD/S components. However, over and above this interaction. GLC
will periodically review with the Office of the DD/S. preferably at least
once a month. active legislation which falls within the scope of the
references.
5. CONGRLSSIONAL # ECOR.D. OLC will continue to send excerpts
from the CONGR 55IO11AL Ri~CQa1J bearing on legislative iten:s of interest
to D1/S components. Nesrsrally, such excerpts are of price ary interest to
the DD/S component involved and, consequently, will not be sent to the
Office of the DD/S unless there is a specific request to do so or the item is
of significant and known interest.
6. Public Laws. ?ublic Laws concerning authorities within the
scope of referent n ernoranda will continue to be sent to the affected DD/S
component as they are published and OLC will also send the DD/ S a copy
of these Public Laws. Further, the periodical review with the Office of
the DD/S. paragraph 4 above, will also include a review of these public
Laws.
7. Other Pro*ranm.s. The above procedure is responsive to the
requirement imposed upon 0LC under the references. Apart from this
program OLC will continue to screen legislation for possible overall
Agency interest and when interest is apparent. order the distribution of
the material to proper componolts within the Agency for information
and/or substantive review. There appears to be no feasible basis for
separate programing of a review for this purpose from a review for
"administrative authorities" purposes within the DD/S area. However.
this should in noway adversely affect either the timeliness, or effective-
ness of the "acimixtistrativ s authorities" review program as outlin: d
herein.
