COAPS does not like the term "intelligence information." "Intelligence" is produced from all kinds of "information" which is collected. We may think of the information we use in producing intelli- gence as "intelligence information" butIto someone else, it may be just information or economic information or some other kind of information. We think that "intelligence" should not be used as an adjective with the word "information" so recommend that IiTaLighaEr? this circular in lieu of "intelligence information" there be used merely "information" or "raw information" or "unevaluated information" and that "intelligence" be "CIA-produced," Bat "information" be "CIA-collected." 2. Definition b under Paragraph 2. We recommend: "The unevaluated or raw information collected by (or issued by) any organizational com- ponent of Ca.." 3. Paragraph 3 (c). Does OSI disseminate under this paragraph finished intelligence or raw information? In either event, the word publications" is unnecessary. 4 ere ore, that your Paragraph 4(a). should o read to the effect that The authority to decide the need for dissemination of intelligence and CIA's information relating to the national security rests with the Director of Central Intelligence: who has delegated some of this authority to the Assistant Director for Collection and Dissemination, CIA, with specific exceptions and under aver-all policies established by the Director. 5. Paragraph 5a, 5c, 6c, 6b and 7b. OCD should "collaborate with the producing or 22112atiag. offices " since it is disseminating either produced, finished intelligence or collected, raw information. 8 -007,28,R000100020023-7 , Approved For Release 2001/09/03 : CIA-RDP81-00728R000100020023-7 SECRET -2- 6. Paragraphs 8 and 9. We understand these paragraphs are applying only to CIA produced intelligence, not to CIA collected information. In .Paragraph 8, shouldn't the intelligence producing components coordinate with AD/OCD as well as with the administrative staff re number of copies? 7. Paragraph 9b, 1 and 2. We recommend, first: Surplus stocks for (or should it be of?) items of CIA-produced intelligence. Second: Stock inventory records for (or should it be of?) items of CIA-produced intelli- gence.

The Director of Central Intelligence has also authorized the distribution of intelligence information direct to using agencies by 00 and OSO when the need is urgent or when special security considerations make it inadvisable to use normal dissemination channels.

STATSPEC d. The dissemination of certain unclassified intelligence infor- mation reports prepared by OSI to certain US private individuals and organizations. 9. Additional Provisions for Sensitive Intelligence Information Reports: a. If it is necessary, in the interest of source protection, to withhold CIA-produced intelligence information reports from one or SECRET Approved For Release 2001/09/03 : CIA-RDP81-00728R000100020023-7 more of the IAC agencies, such reports shall be stewed CIA INTERNAL USE ONLY and shall not be transmitted or disclosed to any agency outside of the Central Intelligence Agency. b. CIA-produced intelligence information reports of special sensitivity, which must nevertheless be disseminated to IAC agencies on a need-to-know basis, shall be stamped LIMITED DISTRIBUTION, shall be in a separate report series, and shall be delivered not to IAC reading panel units but to specific officers within each agency, as designated by the producing office. Such reports shall also bear the notation: "This report is for the information of the following officers only: (list of names). It will receive no further dissemi- nation, either written or oral, without the concurrence of the Central Intelligence Agency, through the Assistant Director for Collection and Dissemination." o. Unevaluated CIA-produced intelligence information reports will normally be disseminated only to IAC agencies, unless the report is unclassified or, if classified, provided that the producing office concurs in such dissemination with or without additional editing. 25X1A 25X1A 25X1A 25X1A Approved For Release 2001/09/03 : CIA-RDP81-00728R000100020023-7 !STANDARD FORM NO. 64 SECRET Office Memorandum ? UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT 4 APR 1950 TO FROM Management Officer, CIA : Assistant Director, ORE SUBJECT: Reference: DATE: Draft of Administrative Instruction re Dissemination of CIA-produced Intelligence and intelligence Information Memorandum from Management Officer, CIA, to AD/ORE, subject as above, dated 15 December 1949, transmitting draft of proposed CIA Administra- tive Instruction on this subject 1. This replies to the referenced memorandum through which the Management Officer circulated for comment a draft of a proposed Adminis- trative Instruction concerning dissemination of CIA-produced intelli- gence and intelligence information. 2. Specifically, the referenced memorandum propo8os rescission of three current administrative Instructions and issuance in their stead of a new Administrative Inst.uction that will embrace and bring up to date the matter now cdverod in the three proposed rescissions. 3. It is recommended that the action described in 'paragraph 2 above be broadened to the following: a. Action Rescind the three current Administrative Instructions as proposed by Management Officer. ? Comment None. b. Action Rescind General Order M=iated 21 July 1949 and Administra- tive Instruction dated 7 December 1948. Rewrite and reword as proposed by subparagraphs (1) and (2) of "Comment" that follows immediately. Comment , Each of these two directives contains in part provisions directly relevant to the subject matter of the proposed new 25X1A 25X1A 25X1A 25X1A Approved For Release 2001/09/03 : CIA-RDP81-00728R000100020023-7 -2 El Administrative Memorandum It is therefore logical to incorporate those provisions in the new directive. It then becomes necessary to* (1) Rewrite the two rescinded directives omitting the provisions mentioned above. (2) Reword the Management Officer's proposed Administrative Memorandum to include pertinent provisions of these two rescinded directives. 4. A000rdin1y, Tab A hereto is proposed as the new Adminidtrative Memorandum in lieu of that advanced by the Management Officer. Attention is invited to the fact that this ORE-proposed directive, in addition to necessary substantive changes, makes occasional modifications to the wording of the Management Officer's draft. 5. Tab S combines appropriate portions of the two ORE-proposed rescissions (General Order and Administrative Instruction No. 11111 in a single directive and codifies several de facto but to now unformalized practices. Since this directive deals for the most part with preparation of unevaluated intelligence information reports, 00 and OSO are presumed to have primary interest. However, it is hoped that Tab S may serve as a useful working basis. S. Approved For Release 2001/09/03: CIA-RDP81-00728R000100020023-7 SEGRET 27 April 1950 NEUMAN= TO: MANAGEMENT OFFICER FROM.
