1. This memorandum Is for your intorm tion.
2. The 3OMday deadline has not been reached but I wanted to give you
an interim re on the ro -ros that hag n made to data. I have met
25X1A9A with Messrs. ort representing their respective
Directorates a tentelt ve agreenents have been reached on several assign-
ments. The respective Career Services will now discuss with the Individual
employees to determine, among, other things, vtaether in fact they are
interested and. wining to undertake a rotational assiamw-nt. Assuming
their interest in przarticlpiati.ng, intervioi-r s will than be arra ;ed between
the eu4ployeea and the propo;;:ed gaining offices and, with all three parties
in agreement, I will meet a .isi with the four Directorate representatives
to work out the time schedules.

#. You will note zcm the above that there are no transfers either to 25X1 A9

of the Science and Technology Directorate. He has, however, just moved into
the Office of Manning, Pxogramming and Budgeting and there his responsibilities

be acct lisped, throw the normal assir,=ent procedure and would not be
in accord with the basic principle involved in the inter-Diroctorato
rotation program. The Support Services expressed an interest in the two
Clandestine Service nciinees. It tiros the consensus of the group with when
I worked that the two proposals, both to the Office of Trainiri, were not
In kcepi, w w .th the developraeni:tal purpose of the inter-Directorate rotation
program. Further, to the extent that they were le itimate requirements for
instructional personnel, they could be pushed through the lo-nn -standi

5. The Otfico of Personnel is preparing a brief report on the amount
of inter-Directorate rotation which has occurred through the Agency over

Directorates. I believe that it will be worthhthile for you to review with
the Deputies scxne time in the near future what these reports will spa and,
particularly, I think we should. reexamine the Support Services' participation
in this program. To il.lustr v e, it well ray be that Dave Drandweina co 'd, be
