12. BRIEFING Accompanied Tony Lapham
General Counsel, an Assistant General Counsel, to a
meeting with Mark Gitenstein, David Bushong, Tom Moore and Pat Norton,
Senate Select Committee on Intelligence staff, to discuss the Director's
scheduled 1 March appearance before the Subcommittee on Secrecy and
Disclosure on the subject of use of classified information in criminal
prosecutions. Mr. Lapham outlined the planned thrust of the Director's
statement which would be to simply identify the problem and not suggest
any remedies. Gitenstein indicated this was acceptable as the purpose
for entire first day's testimony is simply to frame the issues and problems
involved. Gitenstein gave us a draft memorandum which he planned to
give to Senators to prepare them for the hearings. Included are
hypothetical cases which-may be subject for discussion. Gitenstein
emphasized both the memorandum and the hypotheticals were subject to
change and invited our comments. Gitenstein did make a number of
changes based on Mr. Lapham's remarks. Finally, Gitenstein gave us a
list of other witnesses planned for the hearings. Bob Kuech, Criminal
Division, Justice Department, also attended the meeting.
