SUBJECT: S. 2525, a bill "To improve the intelligence
system of the United States by the establish-
ment of a statutory basis for the national
intelligence activities of the United States,
and for other purposes."
The Office of Management and Budget requests the views
of your agency on the above subject before advising on
its relationship to the program of the President, in
accordance with OMB Circular A-19.
The review requested by this Legislative Referral
Memorandum is being conducted concurrently with the
Special Coordinating Committee's (SCC) study of the
broad policy issues raised in S. 2525. Therefore,
in responding to this Legislative Referral Memorandum,
comments by SCC participants should be principally
focused on the more detailed legislative aspects of
S. 2525 which are not being raised within the SCC.
Of course, agencies not participating in the SCC review
should provide OMB with relevant comments pertaining
to the entire bill. Agency comments and the issues
identified by the SCC will later be developed into a
final Administration position for presentation to
Congress.
A response to this request for your views is needed
no later than June 19, 1978.
